{quote} Here also a 5m sell set up with 4H S/R. The 4H seem done 50% pullback, that i didnt notice ytd. the daily closed ytd doesn't look good for bull. {image} {image}
Agreed its why I am very reluctant to go for the long setup present on 15mins timeframe, when it got to the Discount it went to hit out target immediately, since I use m3 for a confirmation entry, its not something I will look for trade anymore, since the there was a close with a wick

{quote} what can we gather from this past few days of m15 and m5 trade set ups exercise? m5 gave us more earlier trade set ups, at the same time we have to accept relatively more losses. m15 gave us lesser trade set ups but more reliable ones, at the same time we have lesser failed trades. if having 2 or 3 trade set ups per day is acceptable to you, then use m15. if you want more trade set ups, then use m5. or you can use a combination of m15 trade set up, then switch to m5 to make a judgement call or wait further for m5 trade set up.
using m15/m5 combo.
we have m15 buy set up. switch to m5 to make judgement call whether to buy (example a close above condition 6 or above red candle high)
or wait further for m5 buy set up.

no definite. you have to know the surrounding terrain.
it can be so. or a swing high. but above is the big round number resistant.
it can aslo be just a single red candle high, but above is the condition 6 resistant.
all depends whether you are able to get enough movement for a BE.

For the 15m/5m combo setup, I got the following confusions.

  1. which HTF to involve and how?
  2. If the trend plays a role here? Which trend? and How?

this week i focus only on entry part for m15/m5. many traders do not know how after the 3 main conditions.
as always the rest of the rules has to be in place.

so you have my entries. just work backwards to find where are the h/l of htf, sessions, engulf, fib, brn..........
