If you're trading 15 minute charts, you should use 30 minute MTF if you're looking for medium-term trend entries. Charts and indicators are always more accurate, the higher the timeframe.
If you want to scalp on the 15 minute chart, you can use the 5 minute MTF (if your indicator has AHTF - Auto Higher Timeframe featured) but be careful as signals will be all over the place and can be mega confusing.
As a rule, it's best to use the next highest timeframe (or higher) MTF, if you must use it in your trading analysis.

If trading in 15 minute, what supply demand TF should i use for MTF, 15 minute or 30 minute.?
Currently i used 15 Minute TF signal and 30 Minute signal. Supply demand also same with signals, if M15 & M30 come from area demmand, and signal give Buy entry so i will entry. But this is give me small entry opportunity, some times got entry in end of trend.
whats your opinion?

I like to go 4-6 timeframes higher than my entry chart.
so if I am in 15m chart for entry, I'd use 4h.
5m is 1h.
