The concept is derived from Gann's theory that prices move in 1/8's, which act as support and resistance levels. Each of the Murrey Math Lines (MMLs) has specific properties:
8/8 th's and 0/8 th's Lines
(Ultimate Resistance). These lines are the strongest barriers, offering significant resistance on the way up and support on the way down. Prices may struggle to break through these lines.
7/8 th's Line
(Weak, Stall and Reverse). This line is relatively weak. Prices that rise rapidly and stall at this line tend to reverse downwards. If prices continue without stalling, they may move towards the 8/8 th's line.
6/8 th's and 2/8 th's Lines
(Pivot, Reverse). These lines are powerful in forcing price reversals, both upwards and downwards, second only to the 4/8 th's line.
5/8 th's Line
(Top of Trading Range). Prices often fluctuate between the 5/8 th's and 3/8 th's lines, spending 40% of the time within this range. If prices sustain above this line for 10-12 days, they are considered to be in a premium area. However, if they fall below, they may seek support at lower levels.
4/8 th's Line
(Major Support/Resistance). This line offers the strongest support when prices are above it and the strongest resistance when prices are below. It is an ideal level for buying and selling.
3/8 th's Line
(Bottom of Trading Range). When prices are below this line and rising, it can be challenging to break through. If prices remain above for 10-12 days, they are likely to stay in the upper range.
1/8 th Line
(Weak, Stall and Reverse). Similar to the 7/8 th's line, this line is weak. Rapid price declines that stall at this line tend to reverse upwards. If prices continue, they may move towards the 0/8 th's line.
Note: This indicator is a valuable tool for traders, providing insights into potential support and resistance levels based on historical price behavior.
