Random article: Zig-Zag indicator
Zig-Zag indicator is a famous indicator (overlapping) represented by lines that connect extreme prices (minimum and maximum).  Zig-Zag measures price changes as percentage and ignores those does not matching certain criterion. In other words, Zig-Zag is a price filter of a particular kind, because it is able to filter insignificant fluctuations of price. Until change for a scheduled percentage takes place, the line moves along with price. When price changes for the value beyond scheduled value , the line takes a reversal into another side. Thus, chart price is formed by curves (zig zag).
Technical levels are one of the crucial elements of technical analysis on the Forex market. Technical levels represent a certain value approaching which the price faces resistance in further movement. On the chart it is pictured as zone (level), where price went and bounced off later, repeated its movement to the level again and without being able to pass it bounced off. Such approaching and returns can take place on a repeated basis and the more efforts are made, the stronger price level we have.
