Looking at the m15 chart only can lead you to have the correct idea but in the wrong place. By looking at high time frame charts you get a better picture of when a trend is in place, when a trend is no longer working or when there is no trend and we're in a range. On the attached charts a daily time frame (top left) has a defined up trend and at 1.6700 the trend...
Trends are not easy to spot when they're developing. I'm sure I looked at AUDCAD many times across several time frames in last 80 days. Now I'm seeing the trend on 12H better, having missed the boat several times! Jeeez this is so annoying! I suspect that several times I must have thought, "Nah.. it's about to reverse soon. " - and just ignored it very swiftly....

In this screencast I'm looking both at the daily and 4H time frames on the JP225USD. The daily is into a potential reversal zone based on my methodology. The 4H is probably into a PRZ based on an ABCD pattern. Stay lively - stalk carefully. :))
In the video I explain some of my methodology. Overall I'm not one for shorting USDCAD. The safest bet - and I'm not taking it - is on the 4H time frame going long.

Its likely for the #BTC and other coins to #down #trend or at least keep sideway for sometime.

I'm not here to be right or to make predictions etc. I urge...

I share how I use some indicators and price movement to assess the situation before entry. I trade what I see, not what I hear. :)) The most important things in trading: 1. See 2. Assess 3. Calculate if risk is...
Ask a hundred traders whether you should be using Log charts or Linear charts and you will get as many answers. The real answer seems to boil down to - Look at both and find what works. On the lower time frames there is often not a big difference. Log is often considered best for longer-term charting, but that is not an absolute. Badrosha on twitter writes:...
