Genuine question. I come from a more traditional trading background and S/R has always been a core part of my analysis, but crypto feels… different.
Random wicks, sudden news-driven moves, liquidity hunts at obvious levels sometimes it feels like clean support & resistance just gets disrespected way more than in stocks or forex.
I’ve tried:
• Higher timeframe levels only
• Ignoring minor intraday levels
• Waiting for confirmation instead of pre-setting orders
Some days it helps, some days BTC just does BTC things 😅
For those consistently trading crypto:
– Do you still rely on S/R heavily?
– Any tweaks that make it more reliable in this market?
– Or do you combine it with something else (volume, OI, funding, etc.)?
Trying to refine my approach, not looking for shortcuts.
