🔍 Trader Mistake 101: Getting Lost in Lower Timeframes

One of the biggest mistakes traders make?

They obsess over the lower timeframes — 1H, 15M, even 5-minute charts.

📉 One red candle and suddenly, “Bears are in control!”

📈 One green candle and here come the “Pump incoming!” tweets.

This is emotional flip-flopping at its worst.

Traders burn through capital chasing noise, not structure.

They trade when it's NOT time to trade.

🧠 So, what should you be doing instead?

✅ Focus on the High Timeframe (HTF) — daily, 4H, weekly.

✅ Let the HTF dictate your directional bias.

✅ Only then use LTFs (like 1H) to find entry setups in the direction of the main trend.

📸 Imagine this:

• Chart #1: People trying to look smart — calling moves up, down, up, down all day long. Confused and broke.

• Chart #2: The HTF trend. It’s flat or trending steadily. Nothing’s changed.

See the problem?

🎯 Key Lesson:

📌 HTF tells the story.

📌 LTF tells the noise.

If HTF is bullish — ride the trend.

If it flips bearish — adjust.

Until then, stop changing your bias every candle.

🔥 Reduce the noise. Increase your clarity.
