Instructions for using support/resistance indicators
The use of a reversal signal only when using the Support/Resistance indicator is quite weak. To complement this weakness you will use one more signal which is the Pin Bar.
The reversal prediction appears when the Pin Bar appears right at the Support/Resistance threshold. The candlestick pattern will have body characteristics within the threshold and a long tail of Pin Bar outside the threshold, which is a strong signal that the price will reverse.
However, this scene has a low rate of occurrence, because the perfect support/resistance thresholds occurrence rate is less than 40%. But at least when the Support/Resistance indicator combines with the Pin Bar, it is surely a reverse point.
