What time frame(s) do you look at and/or place trades on? Make sure you are taking a top down approach as suggested by Xard…at least 2 tf’s M30/M5. This is especially true while you’re first learning. You need to watch how the tf’s can work together to help with bias determination. The idea is to use the higher time frame(s) to determine whether you are looking for only buys or only sells, eliminating one side of the equation. Then, take the signals on the lower time frame when in agreement. Some traders will end up using 1 time frame. But that is after having a full understanding and much testing.

Find some of Xard’s posts here and in his MT5 thread where he has been reiterating the top down approach.

Hi andrei

For the benefit of the traders and to keep from searching through a bunch of threads, could you link to a post or 2 concerning your approach to the dilemma of finding the correct bias for any particular time frame?

I found an EA that can enter trades during backtests created by a Vietnamese coder. You can run the EA in the strategy tester, select the Control Point model to make the candlesticks run faster, then load the indicators and enter trades according to your rules. I think this will be helpful for beginners like me to understand how this system operates. After that, you can extract the history and let ChatGPT analyze what the win rate is with your rules. I used Google Translate,

And the crypt, it's the same thing, but the scale is bigger.

Now they've bought it, and they don't know who to sell it to.
Put it in cold wallets, and leave it to your great-grandchildren. :)
The question is not about the instrument being traded. The question is, what is your approach for you to find your edge concerning the intraday bias?
To avoid spamming this thread, perhaps a link to a post where you share your wisdom and show us the selflessness displayed by Xard and other posters that come here to benefit others on this journey.
