GUIDE STEPS
Supply and Demand (SND) Method
What is SND?
Supply and Demand is a trading method focused on imbalances between buyers and sellers. When demand exceeds supply, prices rise — and vice versa.
Key SND Components
Supply Zone
- Characteristics: Wide base + fast drop
- Entry: Sell at zone rejection
Demand Zone
- Characteristics: Consolidation + strong rally
- Entry: Buy at zone bounce
Imbalance
- Definition: Price movement without retrace
- Strategy: Entry when price returns to fill the imbalance
Advantages of SND
- Visually easy to identify
- High risk-reward potential
- Universal across all assets
Disadvantages of SND
- Subjective zone marking
- Prone to false breakouts
- Does not account for time
