The Supres Sniper

Support and Resistance lines are essential to traders. Particularly in charts in higher time frames, they are key. But how to improve this simple concept, without making things complicated? The answer is simple:

1. Draw the lines automatically, and
2. Indicate which lines are the most important support and resistance levels.
   

The SupRes Sniper can be used in both NanoTrader Free and NanoTrader Full.

These are the advantages of the SupRes Sniper:

• It automatically draws all support & resistance levels.
• It indicates which levels are the most important levels.
• It can be used on all instruments in all time frames.
• It is very easy to use and interpret.

Focus on important support and resistance levels

A support line, is a price level where the market traded often, but continuously struggled to break below. A resistance line, is a price level where the market has traded often, but continuously struggled to break above.

At some of these key price levels more trades occur than at other price levels. These support and & resistance lines at which more trades occurred are drawn thicker in the chart (note: four thicknesses are available). In short: the thicker the line, the more trades occurred at this price level, the stronger the support or the resistance was.

This example shows the automated SupRes Sniper on a weekly DAX chart. The lines where more trades occurred compared to the other lines, are thicker. This indicates the higher importance of those levels.

In addition, the SupRes Sniper has a unique mechanism that prevents too many lines from being drawn in the chart. The user can specify that all individual lines that occur within a certain price range are combined as a single line. This can be achieved with the parameter "Line precision" in the Designer Dialog.

This example the precision parameter is set to 20 ticks. This means that all lines detected in a price range of 20 ticks are shown as a single line. The two most resistance and support levels are clearly visible. This image is very clear.

Important: The quality of support and resistance lines grows exponentially with the time frame. Even if you trade in lower time frames, it is strongly advised to use support & resistance levels based on at least a 60-minute chart or, even better, day charts or week charts.

This example shows the SupRes Sniper on a day chart of the Dow market index. One clear support and resistance level are visible.
