Support & Resistance
Price levels where buying pressure (support) or selling pressure (resistance) has historically been strong enough to halt or reverse price movement.
Explained Simply
Support is a price floor where buyers tend to step in; resistance is a ceiling where sellers tend to emerge. These levels form because of supply/demand memory — traders remember previous highs and lows and place orders around them. When a resistance level is broken, it often becomes new support (and vice versa). The strength of a S/R level depends on how many times it's been tested and on what timeframe it was formed.
How Tradewink Uses Support & Resistance
Support and resistance levels are core to breakout detection (price clearing resistance on volume) and mean reversion signals (price bouncing off support). The AI identifies S/R levels from multiple timeframes and scores breakouts based on how significant the broken level is. Multi-timeframe S/R alignment increases signal confidence.
