How to trade EVERY timeframe (Markets are all the same)
FULL TRANSCRIPT
by far one of the most common questions
that I'm asked is what time frame should
you be trading should you be trading the
4 Hour the daily the 1 hour what time
frames but the simple answer is you can
actually trade whatever time frames you
want because the markets are fractal
meaning price charts look the same
regardless of what time frame you're
looking at whether that's the weekly the
4H hour the 5 minute or the 30C all of
the charts can look the same and provide
the same patterns and opportunities so
in this class I want to highlight that
to you so you can stop worrying about
what time frame to trade and just start
building a successful system either as a
day trader swing Trader scalper or
whatever kind of Trader you want to be
so let's get to it to highlight just how
similar the charts are we're going to
start on the weekly time frame the first
thing we can see is that the market has
pushed into a higher high so we have a
break of structure just here the second
thing to note is that we have an
imbalance here an imbalance is in an
open price range when we see this open
in the charts we basically expect these
imbalances to be filled right now
beneath the imbalance we've got a demand
zone so this area of consolidation
before the large up would move we're
generally going to be considering this
gray candle the last candle before the
impulse that is our demand Zone with
these three things in line bullish
structure a demand Zone and an open
imbalance we could safely assume a good
setup here would be a pull back to this
level and then a buy to Target the highs
now to keep it simplistic we will Target
the swing high this is the next higher
high we're expecting because the
Market's in an uptrend that it will go
and clean this High out at some point
which would be our trade Target so for a
position here we could buy with a stop
beneath the low and we could Target up
into this high this is a 3.35 risk
reward trade meaning every ,000 risk
would be
$3,350 back now remember we are on the
weekly here this is probably not where
you're going to want to trade because
these trades will take ages to play out
but you're going to see that the
concepts work pretty much the same on
all different time frames even to the
weekly so when we're trading with these
price action Concepts we see they work
on pretty much every single time frame
simply because we are following just
pure price action we're not looking at
any indicators or any additions or
overlays we are reading the true price
so if the price structure is bullish if
we have imbalances and we have demand
zones then nothing matters really about
the time frame okay this could be the
weekly could be the 1 minute could be
the 5 minute it truly does not matter
so let's jump this forward through to
the Target there as you've just seen the
trade there keep this in mind because
you're going to see very similar thing
in a moment on those lower time frames
as well when you trade with price action
Concepts like Market structure supply
and demand and imbalances you can trade
this on pretty much any time frame now
take a note of this setup because this
is what we're going to be looking at
across multiple different time frames
just to highlight to you how similar
every different time frame is and how
this fractal nature of the market
meaning the same patterns repeat on
every time frame is 100% viable so we're
going to be looking for a break of
structure into higher highs and then a
pull back through an imbalance range to
retest the demand our Target's going to
be simple we are just going to Target
the previous higher high now I'll show
you all of these different time frames
so you can see what I'm trying to show
you okay so now we're on a daily time
frame for this one we're not even
looking at currency pair we're looking
at the US dollar Index which is a index
that shows the strength of the US dollar
against a basket of different currencies
now we can see once again we've had a
break of structure to the highs we have
an imbalance here in the form of a gap
and this small price range just beneath
these lows and beneath that we have a
demand Zone which we're going to use as
the last candle before the impulse right
so we have some imbalance previous but
because this area really kicked off this
drive to the upside this is going to be
the point that we would focus on for
Buys so now what do we have we have
imbalance we have demand and we have a
break of structure leading into new
highs so much like what we just saw on
the weekly on a currency pair we can see
the exact same price formations here on
the daily on an index so it's a
completely different asset class really
but it still works in the same way which
is true for all of the concepts that I
trade and teach you can trade these on
Futures equities cryptos currencies
indices whatever you want now this trade
setup we will follow the exact same
format we will Target the high on again
so our buy is going to be on the demand
stop- loss will be beneath the low I'd
put it beneath the low generally here
that makes the trade safer targets wise
we are pushing up towards the highs this
is a 3.84 reward to risk profile meaning
every $11,000 RIS is
$3,840 in return now allowing this trade
to play out you see we very quickly get
a tap into demand and a continuation
through to the highs so you see exactly
the same thing that we just viewed on
the weekly Happening Here on The Daily
the return is about the same this trade
would be held for less time this is more
like something you would take as a swing
Trader but of course we can go lower
still now we're viewing a 4-Hour time
frame so we've stepped down once again
we can see break of structure higher
high we have an imbalance left open in
price which is this open price range
here and beneath that what do we have we
have a demand Zone just here so you can
already understand what we're going to
be doing here we are going to be
targeting the next higher high and
buying from demand exactly the same
Concepts and exactly the same trade
format as what we've already seen here
on the weekly and on The Daily but the
4H hour is going to work just as well so
here we get our trade into the Zone then
we get a fill of our Target now this is
getting more like what a general Trader
is going to do this is a much faster
trade we're in this trade for just a few
days and then it's completed the Target
and this one is a 6.8 reward to risk
profile meaning $6,800 in return for
every $100 RIS the exact same concept
once again now we're going to a bit more
of an extreme we are looking now at a 5
minute time frame so we've jumped down a
lot first we can identify that the
structure is starting to shift here
we've had a big push up here forming a
higher high then we left open an
imbalance at this price area here this
open price range and beneath that we
have a demand just as we did on the
weekly just as we did on the daily just
as we did on the 4 Hour now our demand
for reference is going to be this small
candle here the last candle before the
impulse we want to cover the wick so I
would Mark the demand just like this
targets wise we are just going to Target
the high once again so we would look at
a position that looks something like
this we're looking for an imbalance fill
and then we are looking for a retest of
demand to then lead us through into a
new high in this upward Trend so
allowing this trade to play out you see
very much like we did on the weekly the
daily and the 4our we get the exact same
format the exact same setup break in
structure retest of imbalanced demand
trade through towards a new high it's
all the same it doesn't matter if you're
trading High time frames or the very
lowest and for the final highlight of
just how similar different time frames
are I've gone all the way down to the
10c time frame now I highly suggest you
don't go trade in the 10-second time
frame because there's a lot of mess a
lot of chaos the markets move so fast
that you're going to get yourself caught
in a lot of losses but I just want to
show you that structure can still be
exactly the same we have a market here
that is forming High higher highs and
higher lows okay we are seeing a strong
Market a bullish Market we also have in
this bullish Market an imbalance and
beneath the imbalance we have a demand
zone right exactly the same format as
every trade so far so realistically if
the markets are the same we should be
able to buy from here with a stop under
the low targeting this High the next
structural high now the risk reward for
this one's only going to be 2.95 so it's
just under three so it's not really a
trade I would look to take plus the fact
it's on the 10-second time frame by the
way but I just want to highlight just
how similar these markets are so you see
there we get a tap into demand after
filling the imbalance and the market
drives up to retest that structural high
so it is around a 3our trade it's
something that we would potentially take
if it wasn't on such a low time frame so
there you have it there is really
nothing stopping you from Trading the
time frames that you want to trade the
markets are fractal so every chart is
going to provide similar opportuni
whether it's the weekly the daily the 4
Hour the 1 hour the 5 minute the 1
minute whatever it doesn't matter you
can trade flexibly as long as you are
using price action and structure focused
Concepts like the way of trading that
I've showed you in today's video so keep
