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 not 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.

Let’s take the day trading example

We will use 3-time frames for our decision making

1. Higher Time Frame (HTF) DAILY
2. Intermediate Time Frame(ITF) HOURLY
3. Trading Time Frame(TTF) 5MINUTES

Higher Time Frame (HTF) DAILY

The daily time frame for market overview and stock selection

1. Indemnifying trend and
2. Marking the nearest supply and demand zone

Let’s analyze the above three charts in the intermediate time frame above three chart

Trading Time Frame (TTF) 5 MINUTES

We will use a trading time frame(TTF) FOR

• Used for zone selection
• Used for entry, exit, and stop-loss placement

How to select a zone?

Step 1

Marking the nearest supply and demand zone

Step 2

Find where we are with respect to zone

1. If the trend is up and we are in the supply zone and avoid a long trend, we become sellers as the price at the supply zone or wait for a clear breakout from the supply zone.
2. If the trend up we are in the demand zone look opportunities for long
3. If we are middle of the trend, we can go with the intermediate trend
