Why You Need All Timeframes..

By WillSebastian
Updated
Hey Guys,

As you may of seen earlier on my stream, we need to be using all Timeframes to be accurate when trading..

WHY? Well it's simple. Without them you are BLIND to the longer term market.

Short timeframes cater to SHORT TERM Trading. You cannot take long term trades or get a long term view of the market with short term timeframes.

So understand their true purpose and how to use them..

Watch for more.

Make note of todays moves.

Notice clearly how small levels previously formed way back are being broken down.

That’s because there is NO sharp down side impetus and the market is tentatively moving.

Still, our bias remains 1810 light entries 1790 remainders.

Short now
Comment
Shorts killed for gains nearer 2005. Long zone persists at that point and poor sentiment is holding gold where it is. Any positions need to be light and sideways traded.
Comment
Watch how Gold is struggling to push higher.

Thats because of a mixture of weak downside PA and the fact that early support exists.

Finally (and inevitably) gold will fall a long way.

You just need to treat the market with the correct medicine for the way it is now. Any pushes RE to the highs will be taken short.
