This routine from Post #416 relied on too broad a picture of the market to "guaranty" success under all conditions.
Better to use the protocol that follows.
I rely on the 16-hour, 1⅓-day, 2-day, 3-day and 4-day baselines on a one-hour chart to gauge in which direction price is headed from day to day, along with the 4½-day temporal support and resistance levels.
However, to better select entry and exit levels, I will often drop down to five-minute (and sometimes even one-minute) charts.
So then, I’m generally looking for the above baselines to all by "perfectly" aligned (more-or-less) in terms of their slopes and structure (i.e., fanning out).
Generally speaking, I will execute trades when price makes contact with and is subsequently rejected at the 24- (or 26-) hour temporal support or resistance level, as appropriate, though the 4½- and 15-day temporal support/resistance levels can also come into play.
(I should probably go back, however, and evaluate how the 14-hour temporal support/resistance levels can/should also fit into this routine.)
The 8-hour baseline and 45-minute baselines should also be consulted to help gauge in which direction rates are ultimately headed at the
intraday level.
This approach was developed thanks to an effort to overcome the problem of devising a system able to deal effectively with the challenges encountered in trading Nadex binary option contracts.
And don't forget, it is also important to monitor the four-hour, eight-hour, and two-day price ranges.
