DislikedThat is an excellent point Tom -
Assuming you start at the beginning of a 4H - assuming Close > Open on a 4 H, you *should* be seeing 1m trending higher. Its when you see 1 m start to go sideways is when everyone starts wondering "did trend stop".
Here's the kicker. What happened on the previous 4H candle? Are you higher than the entire bar, or still within it ?
That answer, will determine if your still ranging or if you have a real trend that is valid for a 4h chart
Once you go out to a daily chart, then you have to re-ask...Ignored
Draw your sup & res at places where significant swings happened in the past:
Weekly
Daily
H4
H1
And have lets say four charts open
1. With perma H4/H1
2. M15
3. M5
4. M1
and trade only those lines with execution from M5/M1 simple yet deadly concept, and you can hit those line up to one pip.
And when all of them dance together it is just beautiful view.
No need to be confuse about channels, ranging and stuff - trust me, run demo and test it for three months - easy peasy
Trading is not that hard it is our mind that cause all failures, emotions are deadly to any trader and hardest to master.
swing it!
