Multiple Time Frames Analysis!

I have been trading for sometime now the one thing I am having problems with is multiple timeframe analysis. It get really confusing for me and I think my brain is in over load from all of the information I have been researching. My question is, I like to swing trade, I don't mind holding position's for a couple of hours, but I also like to scalp and being able to rotate scalp and swing strategies. So my question is how do I get the hang of multiple time frame analysis? Or can someone send me very detailed material to read and get properly trained? I love forex trading, but I really get discouraged when I think I got the concept and then it's like the bottom falls out of my paper account lol.....

Multiple TF analysis is eazy it all depends on howyou interpret it. For instance if the 4hr trend is up and you use a 100ma look only for longs on the 1hr if you see a good setup. I trade on breakouts for a quick scalp using multi tf, I only trade the breakout if it follows the larger tf. To me it seems you may be over complicating things a little, hope that gives youa better idea of how to utlize multi tf analysis.

P.s
ALWAYS USE A LARGER TF BY AT LEAST 3 PERIOD, ex: 30min or 1hr and 4hr, 4h and daily etc etc.

I agree, don't over complicate trading. All you need is the larger timeframe to give you the overall trend. And you then make your entries using the smaller timeframe. Use moving averages to give you concrete evidence as to whether the trend is up or down, such as if the smaller ema is over the larger ema then you are in an uptrend and vice versa for a downtrend.

I only use larger time frames as a reference to areas of major support and resistance. If you just want to know the trend direction of a larger time frame, all you have to do is to place an MA with a high value on your smaller time frame.

Multiple time frame analysis is the best way to read and analyse a chart.you have to read your chart from right to left not the other way round
