there are times where we have to make difficult decisions like whether to take the m5 bullish ce
or wait for further m15 bullish bos because there is a m15 bearish bos above.

one does not take a trade passively just because there was a m5 bullish ce.
not only we have to be aware of htf snr, we also have to be aware of the ltf surrounding terrain.
in this case, there was a m15 bearish bos right above. a BE would protect your trade.

where is your htf snr. can it help you?
if can't decide then no trade. until you can see obvious one. or it jumps right out in front of you.

with so many pullbacks, not an easy climb. either TP or trailing stop.
seems lesser resistant above, trailing stop below candle low may be more approapriate.

Hi ITB, I can see that the blue arrows mean the BOS and entry point of the buy setup. How about the red arrows? same meaning for BOS and entry for sell setup?
Trading is not easy

round number is the key level here. you are watching closely candles reaction at that key level. reject or break.

no preference. always depends on the trader pulling the trigger, whether comfortable to take the extra risk.
