📈 Timeframe: What is it and how to choose it? 
Do you know that everyone sees the market differently? It all depends on the timeframe, the period you're analyzing. A 2% move looks like a trend to a scalper, like noise to an intraday trader, and like a barely noticeable tick on a 4-hour chart to a position trader.
❗️ The most common mistake beginners make is jumping between timeframes. On the minute chart, everything falls, on the hourly chart, it grows, and on the daily chart, it's sideways. As a result, there's complete disorientation and random trades.
What should I do?
1️⃣ Define your trading style
Scalpers and intraday traders shouldn’t analyze daily charts. And if you hold a position for several days or weeks, forget about the 5-minute timeframe.
2️⃣ Work with a maximum of three timeframes:
• The main one, where you make a trade decision
• The senior one, to understand the global structure and context
• The junior one, for a more precise entry
The context of the senior timeframe is always stronger than that of the junior one. What looks like a drop on a 15-minute chart may only be a correction on an hourly chart. Combining these two timeframes increases the likelihood of success, helps you avoid entering against the trend, and makes your work clearer and more relaxed.
