Anyone trading purely Support and Resistance get a 70% or high 60% win rate?

  1. It feels extremely inconsistent with that kind of win rate, which I am having.

  2. Any hints or clues or tips where I can follow and figure it out myself then?

  4. Higher time frame trend + lower time frame trend confluence?

    Slower market speed = less confidence in short term levels.
    More volatility = higher confidence.

    There are many other factors involved that you must filter your decisions through for S/R to have true value.

  8. So a faster price approaching the level is preferred? I was wondering if slower speed was preferred since we want to see less people buying/selling dropping off as it approaches the level and weakening, then easier to reverse.
