Learning To Trade Multiple Timeframes

By Ahmad Hassam

Have you ever traded multiple timeframes? No, then let me explain what multiple timeframe trading is. In multiple timeframe trading, a trader first looks at a longer timeframe like a monthly or weekly chart to determine the overall direction of the trend. Multiple time frame trading is a trading method used extensively by forex traders. It involves the use of multiple timeframes.

If the trader finds a decisive long term trend on this timeframe, he/she then decides to drill down to a shorter timeframe like the daily or 4 hourly chart to look for dips or pullbacks in the trend.

A minor downward retracement would represent a potentially high probability entry to get in the trend at a reasonably good price in a strong long term uptrend. Finally the trader may drill down to an even shorter timeframe like the 30 minutes or 15 minutes charts to pinpoint and time the exact entry.

How do you trade multiple timeframes? Suppose, you are interested in trading multiple timeframes! You identify the retracement in an uptrend on a 4 hourly chart. What you need to do is to wait for a resistance breakout on a 15 minute chart in the direction of the trend before entering into a long position.

Multiple timeframe trading can be very powerful if used correctly. What make multiple timeframe trading so powerful is that it puts the traders on the right side of the market while also identifying the highest probability entries available.

What is Triple Screen trading? Have you heard of the triple screen trading method? One of the multiple timeframe trading strategies is known as Triple Screen. A triple screen resolves the contradiction between the technical indicators and timeframes. The first screen is the long term charts and strategic decisions on long term charts are made using the trend following indicators. How do you decide what is long term? It depends on your favorite timeframe.

The second screen is the intermediate charts. The second screen is used to make technical decisions about entries and exits using oscillators. The third screen can be an intermediate chart or a short term chart. The third screen is used to place buy and sell orders.

Begin by looking at your favorite chart, the one that you use the most. Call it intermediate chart. Multiply its length by five to find the long term chart. Now use trend following indicators on the long term charts.

Use these trend following indicators in the long term charts to make your strategic decision to go long, short or stay out of the trade. Staying out of the trade is a legitimate position.

Return to the intermediate chart if the long term chart is bearish or bullish. Use oscillators like the Stochastics or RSI to look for entry or exit points in the direction of the long term trend. Set stops and profit targets before you switch to short term charts to fine tune entries and exits. To get at the short term divide the intermediate timeframe with 4-6. In our case, the intermediate timeframe is 4 hours, so the short term would be 1 hour charts.

Use it on your demo account to get familiar with it before you trade live with the triple screen method. Triple screen is a simple but ingenious multiple timeframe approach to forex trading. - 23223

Types of Forex Software

Things To Look For When Choosing A Forex Signal Provider

By Tk Kearns

Of course you want to protect your forex account. There are some red flags that make it an easy task. There are lots of traders around as third party signal providers that may be good for a few months or so but are actually ticking time bombs ready to explode. Don't light that fuse.

This treatise is not intended to be an all encompassing answer to the traders problems, it is only a tool to give you a few tips on what to look for and what to avoid. First things to look for:

Trading With No Stops

Any trader who trades without stops should be avoided. Even if the trader is good, there are factors that you cannot control. There is always the chance of a power outage or internet connection failure. News can move the market fast and far. Trading without stop is the first thing that any trader learns not to do. Avoid this trader at all costs.

Huge Losses/Small Wins

Some traders get excited and pull profits off of the table far too early. Generally this is a good idea for a losing trade. You want to cut your losses short and let your winners run. This should cause your winners to be bigger than your losers. Any trader who regularly takes 10 pips of profits and has 200 pip losers on his books is no one that you want trading your account.

New Guys on the Block

New traders will not per se raise a red flag. They should be circumvented, however, because of a lack of track record. You should not trade with anyone until you can track a decent history, of say, six months to see if he is a survivor, and by then, you will have a decent amount of history to analyze. Wait. Do your homework.

Big Winnings Following a Draw Down

Traders who have abnormally big winners at the end of a sizable draw down have usually given up and are taking one last shot. Their account recovers and to the untrained eye it looks like a solid winning trader. For every 10 traders that try this maybe 2 will survive and bounce back. This means that those 2 are floating around waiting for you. When they have their next draw down they will likely try the same "hail mary" play and the results may not be so favorable. Don't let someone trade your money on a wing and a prayer.

That wraps up this article. As stated earlier, this treatise is only a glimpse of the evils that can befall the unwary forex explorer. - 23223
