Strategic Intent: Precision execution based on the "Line of Least Resistance" and high-probability price action.
The Technical Sniper is the ultimate disciplined operator. They ignore the "why" behind a move and focus entirely on the "what." By mastering volume, price levels, and market keys, they wait for the exact moment—the Pivotal Point—to pull the trigger. They don't trade often; they trade with size when the math is in their favor.
- Tactical Focus: Support/Resistance, Volume Profile, Candlestick Anatomy, and Fibonacci levels.
- Psychological Profile: Extremely patient, emotionally detached, and obsessed with risk-to-reward ratios.
The Blueprint:
- Logic: The Market Key (identifying where the trend is forced to show its hand).
- Execution: Probing positions and tight stop-losses.
- Risk: Over-trading or "machine-gunning" the market during low-volatility periods.
Legendary Archetypes:
- Jesse Livermore: The pioneer of the "Pivotal Point" and the "Line of Least Resistance."
- Steve Cohen: Mastered the art of reading the "tape" to find short-term technical edges.
- Mark Minervini: Uses the "SEPA" methodology to find high-velocity technical breakouts.
- Takashi Kotegawa: The Japanese legend who turned $13k into $150M by sniping technical rebounds.
