When a level breaks, it changes role. Broken support becomes resistance (SBR) and broken resistance becomes support (RBS). These flipped levels are some of the most reliable in MSNR.
SBR: the support is broken by a body close below it. Price comes back up, tests it from below and drops.RBS: resistance breaks with a body close above it, then holds as support on the retest.
What counts as a break
Only a body close beyond the level counts as a break. A wick through the level and a close back inside is a sweep or rejection, not a break. This one rule removes many false breakouts.
Rules
Break = body close beyond the level.
The first retest after the break is the best one.
If a flipped level breaks again, delete it.
SBR/RBS works like a breaker block in SMC terms.
Common mistakes
Calling a wick through a level a break.
Trading the fourth or fifth retest of the same flipped level.

1. Support breaks with a body close below it. What is it now?
2. A candle wicks above resistance but closes below it. Is that a break?
