Master Horizontal Lines on Trading Charts | Signal & Structure 2In this second episode of the Signal and Structure series, we dive deep into one of the most fundamental yet powerful tools in technical analysis - horizontal support and resistance lines. This practical tutorial demonstrates a systematic approach to identifying and marking key price levels across multiple timeframes. What You'll Learn: Color-Coded Line System for Multiple Timeframes: Monthly (Black, thickness 4) - The strongest levels from monthly candle closes Weekly (Maroon/Brown, thickness 3) - Key weekly support/resistance zones 2-Day (Red, thickness 2) - Intermediate term levels 12-Hour (Orange, thickness 1-2) - Short-term trading levels 3-Hour (Yellow, thickness 1) - Day trading reference points Key Concepts Covered: Why monthly candle closes often matter more than wicks (with live examples) How previous resistance becomes new support - demonstrated on Bitcoin's chart Identifying distribution and accumulation ranges using horizontal levels The importance of avoiding chart clutter - when NOT to add more lines Using transparent candles to see through to your levels and indicators Practical Techniques: Live demonstration on TradingView using Bitcoin/USD charts How to identify the most significant levels from each timeframe Creating "boxes" to visualize trading ranges and distribution zones Brief introduction to Wyckoff theory concepts (spring patterns) Tips for maintaining clarity when working with multiple overlapping levels Chart Setup Tips: Why exchange charts (KuCoin, Gate.io) provide better volume data than index charts Continuing emphasis on logarithmic scale for crypto analysis How to organize your workspace for multi-timeframe analysis This 20-minute tutorial walks you through the exact process of building a professional-grade support and resistance framework on your charts. The presenter demonstrates each concept in real-time on TradingView, making it easy to follow along and implement these techniques immediately. Perfect for traders who want to move beyond random line drawing and develop a systematic, color-coded approach to identifying key market levels. Whether you're scalping on the 3-hour or position trading on the monthly, this hierarchical system helps you see exactly where the important levels are at a glance. Next episode preview: Diagonal trend lines, channels, and Fibonacci levels - including a unique approach to stacking channels that provides an edge in the markets.

The BEST Timeframe to Trade ForexYou got into trading for one reason and one reason only. To change your life. For freedom, for freedom to do the things you want to do. To spend time doing what you want to do when you want to do it. NOT to be a slave to the screen. Not to stare at the charts all day. And here is the thing. If that is what was required, to stare at the charts for hours at a time watching each tick, then you would do it. You would do whatever it takes to succeed. The thing is and I want you to pay attention to what I am going to say right now because it is very important, the very thing you are doing is actually the thing preventing you from success. You are spending too much time watching the markets and taking way too many trades. Trade less. Avoid the noise. Take strong signals with a different mindset and increase your win ratio and profitability.

Good timeframe correlation on AUDJPY to shortUsing linear regression and resistance to guide this trade, across multiple timeframes there is reasonable indication that the price could be overbought and move lower. ENTRY At the time of the video, there was some support appearing on the lowest time frames (5, 15min) but should that get broken a move towards the mean of the linear regression channel is viable. STOP PLACEMENT A stop could be placed above yesterday's high (27th May 2019), or a more conservative stop could be placed above the high on 20th May. PROFIT TAKING Profit taking could be at the mean of the linear regression channel or at the lower linear regression channel. In both cases, with either of the stoploss placements described above, the reward to risk on the trade exceeds 1:1. What are your thoughts? Do you agree?

EURUSD: Interesting moves scattered aroundEURUSD has presented different opportunities and conflicting signals. 'Everybody' wants to know which way it is going. This is the wrong question. In this screencast I show different opportunities relative to trends on different time frames. Where price is going, depends heavily on which time frame trend you're stalking - and whether you'r willing to take a controlled loss on that time frame (alias stop-loss). As I do not work with a 'predictions' model, I simply cannot predict where price is going or any targets. My personal bias was for price on 1D time frame to move south. But now the evidence on the charts confront me. It is also probable that a lower time frame trend could eventually move the bigger time frames north. This is how big trend get reversed - it just makes sense. The way I see it is that all traders exploit trends - by some methodology. The trick - which is not easy - is controlling loss, extracting the money and running like hell! :) To be clear this post is not a recommendation to take any particular position.
