The only thing I can add (and I have looked a fair bit) is to train your eyes on the vertical grey bar on the left edge of the editor, called the "code folding ribbon" in preferences. It will visually hint at matching braces (not parenthesis) at all nested levels, and mousing over it hints quite strongly and gives the interface for folding.

See here for a snapshot and brief description from Apple.
