Sure I understand. We have had this discussion before I think.

IMO there are 2 simple and effective solutions to solve what swings to take and reduce subjectivity in the process. One is taking a fix major TFs and the other just take the reversal swings (rejection of swings high and lows) on H4 minimum or daily for a healthier range (not below because the range is too small). The second method guarantee you that you will be aligned with major S/R areas (supply demand in FF words).... in any case, just my 2 cents...
