A frequent error among traders is their obsession with short-term charts, like the 1-hour or even 15-minute timeframes, where they constantly shift their outlook based on every red or green candle.

● A single red candle sparks bearish panic for a crash, while a green candle fuels bullish hype for a surge.

● This type of erratic price action is where most traders squander their hard-earned capital, jumping into trades at the wrong moments. What’s the better approach?

● The fix is straightforward: focus on the higher timeframe (HTF) to guide your bias and use that to inform your lower timeframe entries.

👉 The second image reveals what the HTF is actually doing—essentially nothing, right?Instead of frittering away time on 1-hour or 15-minute charts and flipping your bias repeatedly, stick to the HTF. If the trend is bullish, stay with it until it changes. If it’s bearish, follow it until it shifts.

Cut out the noise!
