How to use multiple time frames

 The forex trade market is more of an adventure kind of market where you would never stop learning; it is like solving a mathematical equation with ever changing figures.

 In trading forex there is a great importance of looking at multiple time frames before executing any form of trade, and this is the reason why a newbie who is used to trading off 5-minute charts and whom must have analyzed a possible buy opportunity would suddenly wonder why the market reversed. In most occation that same currency pair could have found support or even hit resistance on a much larger time frame, and because the newbie ignores looking at other time frames when analyzing the market he now stands a higher risk of losing all his money.

 Studying multiple time frames has an added advantage in making trade decisions, and a perect combination of time frames gives you an edge in identiying possible market trends to sell-off or to go long.
  Now i usually prefer analyzing time frames in these sequence (5-minute, 30-minute, and 1hour) or (15-minute, 1hour, and 4hours) There are , however, other combinations you could use to identiy your market trends, but do not exceed using more than 3 different time dimensions at analyzing a currency pair.
 Always define yourself before taking any form of action, it make you a successful trader.
