Previous Daily High/Low

The previous day’s high and low are critical price levels that traders use to identify potential support, resistance, and intraday trading opportunities. These levels represent the highest and lowest prices reached during the prior trading session and often act as reference points for future price action.
Why Are Previous Daily High/Low Important?
Support & Resistance Zones
The previous day’s low often acts as support (buyers defend this level).
The previous day’s high often acts as resistance (sellers defend this level).
Breakout Trading
A move above the previous high suggests bullish momentum.
A move below the previous low suggests bearish momentum.
Mean Reversion Trading
Traders fade moves toward these levels, expecting reversals.
Example: Buying near the previous low in an uptrend.
Institutional Order Flow
Market makers and algos often reference these levels for liquidity.
