Crypto support and resistance levels
CoinBeacon marks the floor pivots, Fibonacci retracements, swing highs and lows, round numbers, and the prior all-time high or low near a coin. Each is placed above or below the price, with its distance from the price.

Levels above and below the price
Open a coin and CoinBeacon lists the levels around the price: the ones above it overhead and the ones below underneath. The ladder is built from the coin's own candles, with no drawing tools.
- Floor pivots. The classic P, R1–R3 and S1–S3, projected from the last closed candle's high, low and close.
- Fibonacci retracements. 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618 and 0.786 drawn across the latest confirmed swing high and low.
- Round numbers. Round-number levels, scaled to the coin's price, from cents to five figures.
- Prior ATH / ATL. Marked whenever price is trading within roughly 15% of the all-time high or low.

Sorted by distance from price
CoinBeacon measures the signed distance from the price to every level and sorts nearest-first, so the closest levels sit at the top. Each keeps its own name, with its side read from where price is. The panel beside this one runs that ranking across the board: one line per coin, with the coin closest to a level first.
- Signed distance. Every level shows the percentage from the current price: positive above, negative below.
- Nearest-first. The list ranks by absolute distance, so the nearest levels are the ones you see first.
- Side by position. A pivot R1 that price has traded above is listed below the price. Levels are placed by where price sits, not by their label.
- Swing highs & lows. The recent confirmed highs and lows are levels of their own: the prices where the last move turned.

The detector watches the price against every level it has drawn and shows the nearest one for each coin: one row per coin, the line price is closest to testing. The count beside it is every coin this 4h Binance spot read ranks.

Each coin’s nearest level · Binance spot, 4h candles.
Every level is marked above or below the price it was measured at
The in-app detector carries the same feed for every coin with a level in play, its full ladder on the coin page and an alert on any line.
How to find support and resistance on a crypto chart
- 01Open the coin in the levels detectorPick any Binance spot or futures pair. The ladder is already built from that coin's own candles: pivots, Fibonacci retracements, swing highs and lows, round numbers and the prior ATH or ATL when price is near one.
- 02Read the ladder around the priceLevels above the price stack overhead, levels below sit underneath, and the price is marked between them with the time it was read. Each line carries its own price and a signed distance in percent, so you can see how much room is left before the next test.
- 03Start with the levels nearest priceThe list ranks by absolute distance, so the nearest lines are at the top. On the cross-coin board each coin shows its single nearest level, and every level carries its type: pivot, fib, swing, round number or a prior ATH/ATL.
- 04Turn the level into an alertCopy the number into a price alert, above or below, and CoinBeacon's servers watch it and notify you by Telegram, Discord, email or webhook when price trades through.
Common uses
Crypto support and resistance levels for entries and exits
The ladder gives you the numbers; you still choose where to act. Read the nearest support, then park a price alert just above it and let the retest come to you. The same works overhead: an alert a fraction past resistance turns a breakout into a message instead of a missed candle.
Pivot points and Fibonacci retracements, already drawn
Two traders draw the same retracement three different ways. Here the pivots come off the last closed candle and the fibs off the latest confirmed swing, so the levels are reproducible rather than personal. For diagonal lines (rising support and falling resistance), auto-drawn trendlines cover the lines that move.
Round numbers and the prior all-time high
Round numbers and an old all-time high are common reference levels, which is why the ATH joins the ladder once price is within roughly 15% of it. To see how far a coin still sits below its peak, and what multiple a full round-trip would take, that is what the ATH/ATL board ranks.
Telling a real level break from a fakeout
A level tagged and rejected means the opposite of a level closed through on heavy participation. Read the break alongside volume analysis, where a close through a key level on a volume spike is flagged as a confirmed break.
Key levels FAQ
- How do I find support and resistance levels in crypto?
- Open a coin in CoinBeacon's key-levels detector and the ladder is already built from that coin's own candles, with no drawing tools involved. Levels above the price stack overhead and levels below sit underneath; each keeps its own name (an R1 stays R1) and shows its price plus the signed distance from where the coin is trading. The list is sorted nearest-first, so the levels price is about to test sit at the top.
- Which price levels does CoinBeacon mark on a coin?
- Five kinds of level: classic floor pivots (P, R1–R3, S1–S3), Fibonacci retracements (0.236 to 0.786), the recent swing highs and lows, round-number psychological levels, and the prior all-time high or low when price is near it. Levels are built from Binance spot and futures candles.
- How does CoinBeacon decide if a level is support or resistance?
- It doesn’t claim either. Each level keeps its formula name (a pivot R1 is still R1 after price trades above it), and the ladder marks where it sits against the current price: above or below, with a signed distance in percent, nearest-first. Whether price actually turns at a level is for your own read; nothing on the board calls a line proven support.
- How are the pivot points and Fibonacci levels calculated?
- Floor pivots (P, R1–R3 and S1–S3) use the Traditional formula on the last closed candle's high, low and close, and the set applies to the period after that candle: an hourly set for the next hour, a daily set for the next day. It stays put for that period rather than shifting under you mid-bar. The Fibonacci retracements are the standard 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618 and 0.786, drawn across the latest confirmed swing high and low, so they re-anchor as the swing does instead of hanging off an old move.
- Why doesn't every coin show a prior all-time high level?
- Because the ATH and ATL are only marked when price is trading within roughly 15% of them. A coin sitting 80% below its all-time high has no business treating that number as nearby resistance, so the level is left off the ladder until price climbs back into range. The full drawdown picture lives on the ATH/ATL board instead.
- Can I get an alert when price reaches a key level?
- Yes. Read the level off the ladder and set a price alert at that number, above or below. CoinBeacon watches it on its own servers and notifies you on the cross by email, Telegram, Discord or webhook, with a per-alert cooldown so price moving back and forth around the line notifies you once per cooldown. There is no chart tab to keep open. For the swing highs and lows the board marks, a Price action alert can also tell you when a candle closes beyond the last one: choose Alert me on swing breaks above the board.
- Which exchange's data are the levels built from?
- Binance spot and futures. Pivots, retracements and swings are all derived from one venue's candles, so every level sits exactly where you'd read it on the Binance chart you trade, with no cross-venue averaging. Any Binance-listed pair, spot or futures, can carry a ladder.
- Are key levels free to use?
- Yes. The free plan includes every CoinBeacon feature (the key-levels detector, charts and the scanner) with up to 5 active alerts and 10 notifications per day. No credit card or exchange API keys are needed.
