Multiple Time Frame Analysis is the technique of analyzing several time frames of the same asset before entering a trade. This type of analysis is best done using a top-down approach, i.e. starting at a higher time frame and working your way down, via several lower time frames, until the execution time frame is reached where a trade could be entered. Traders who use this technique usually look at 3 or 4 different time frames to identify the general trend and find the best entries. They minimize their risk and improve the odds of success simply by taking the bigger picture into account. It can easily be combined with any trading strategy.
Time frames are usually several times apart. For example a day trader who trades hourly charts, could analyse the weekly (high time frame), the daily (7 times smaller), the 4 hour (6 times smaller) and finally the hourly time frame (execution time frame, 4 times smaller). TradingView has a chart layout feature with multiple charts per layout, so you can analyse an asset on multiple time frames under one tab in your browser.

A good RRR (risk reward ratio) is 3-1 or better. meaning that we are risking $1 to make at least $3
Understand that by maintain a 3-1 RRR, even if I lose over...

The Basics of Trading with EMAs using Multi Timeframes MTF Explained

Was not anticipating price to react so early in the week, so i was not apart of the trade.
But i wanted to point out how price took out the previous highs so beautifully.
Reacting to the 62% fib level in the right time period so nicely.

Trading is complected, because Price is superimposed wave of price activities on different time frames.
When trends on short, medium and long term time frames move in the same direction, price trend is clear, as a whole.
