Exactly, Cladi, that's what it is all about. Whatever TF one trades it needs to be in sync with the higher TF and one hardly can get it wrong.
One can for example scalp the 5m all day if it is in sync with the 15 and.....the more the better and the longer the move.
In the following chart I use a MTF Stochastic for convenience...i.e. it shows the direction on the higher TF.
It doesn't really matter what indicators you use on the chart. Anything that suits you. Even just a SMA.

And the 15m in sync with the 30m......you still can scalp the 5m for longer moves.
