My personal xrp charting process.

chART
Its mentally and intellectually stimulating to chART.

I use the charts everyday. I should probably post everyday.

Notice the red dotted vertical lines represent Days of the week. The Grey dotted vertical lines represent the end or start of the week. When I trade, I make the same dotted vertical lines on the 4hour timeframe with Orange. sometime, ever with the 1hr timeframe using Yellow.

I do this because I don't want my mind to be on the charts all day but I also want to stay organized and up to speed when I sit down to look at the charts again.
Step1: Mark the weekly and daily vertical dotted lines. then,
1. Start on the Weekly TimeFrame. Chart the weekly levels and ranges that influence price.
2. Move to the Daily TimeFrame. Chart the daily levels and ranges and adapt the weekly so it makes sense.
3. lock those levels in place
4. Anchor Text: write up the #marketmeta, your analysis of the data you've identified and marked. *Change the visibility of the achored text to only be visible on the weekly timeframe.

Step2:
Move to the 4hr TimeFrame. I like to trade for 8hrs. 4hrs on the charts (scalp) & 4hrs away from charts but checking every hour on the trade. (swing). So,
1. I will mark with an orange vertical dotted line ahead of price where the next two 4hr candles will be (8hrs ahead)
2. mark the 4hr levels & ranges influencing price.
3. Move to the 1hr TimeFrame adapting the 4hr levels. Marking 1hr levels, ranges. Paying more attention to the levels and candles immediately left of price.
4. Move to the 15min TimeFrame, adapt and mark the levels if needed. Preference goes to the 1hr levels since they are stronger.

Step3.
Move to the 5min TimeFrame and gauge risk, set timebombs (how long will I provide liquidity to [trading pari]?,
set trade... Use personal judgement based on risk, leverage, what the Data is expressing..
Wait for the trade or scalp 5min/15min ranges until the 1hr targets are hit... (Usually takes the 4hrs) If not scalping, I'll research #4ir topics and the regulatory bodies that govern the global trade finance and economic fabric. (Sundays I read, study, meditate and play my week while trades play out).

after 4hrs is up. Your 4x 1hr candles have hit the first 4hr vertical dotted line. This is also a reminder to stretch, take a break. Set a 15min timer on the phone. Usually the close of a 4hr candle has some volatility. If you are in the trade and that volatility will be in your favor, take a break and let it play out. If not, wait it out and trade with a fresh mind, lower leverage. If a trade isn't perfect. You're off early. Enjoy the day & eat c0tt0nc4ndy cause it's healthy TA

Step4
Erase the 1min - 1hr levels you marked yesterday.
Adapt the 4hour levels and trends. Intraday #marketmeta takes like 20mins and you are trading within the hour usually.
*by the end of the week. You'll see if your MarketMeta you wrote with the anchored text last week was accurate or not. ** you might see and realize that early in the week, when price was "dumping" still had 4days to recover and form the weekly candle. Crazy what approx 200 5min candles in 1 weekly candle can accomplish.
This is the way.
