Why does my 1998 Mercury Mystique move in reverse but not drive forward in any gear It was slipping due to low fluid and I added some but not no forward gears at all?

Check the fluid for a burnt smell or odd color. While driving the car with low Transmission Fluid its possible that the bands were damaged.

Shift pattern for Mercury Mystique?
it's your usual 1st gear top left lay out. From 1st pull straight down into 2nd, up into 3rd down into 4th, up into 5th. On most mystique's you must pull up a ring on the shifter in order to get into reverse which is the bottom right of the pattern.
