Have you ever found yourself taking a picture perfect setup on your primary timeframe chart only to see if not work and stop you out?

Traders should always understand the overall market environment and no just one time frame

Advantages of using multiple time frames that we cover include:

• Allowing the trader to get a micro view of larger time frames, which can, in turn, confirm the trader’s original analysis of trade. It is like using a backup pattern and fine-tuning an entry. An example would be having a pattern on a 60-minute chart and using a 5-minute chart to confirm the entry.
• Risk can be managed more effectively by combining time frames. A trader can learn to move stops on smaller time frames for patterns that complete on larger time frames.
• Using multiple time frames from larger to smaller can help the trader to be aware of contrary or opposing patterns that form on smaller time frames that are against the longer-term time frame.
