The most important things to read market structure, is bye utilizing all the time frames you have available . A rule of thum to ALWAYS follow is that, the HIGHER TIME FRAME the better.
My favorite time frames to use at the start of my analysis is the following order .
Monthly
Weekly
Daily
4 Hour
5/15 Minutes
These are my go to time frames and we will discuss each one and how they will be used.
We are going to use time frame one by one, to build our confluence report to finalize our trading decision.
We are looking for the course of event.
Basically like watching a movie or reading a book. Trying to figure out what is the common subject appearing over and over again? Who is the bad guy? Who is the good guy?
MONTHLY TIME FRAME :-

The monthly time frame is used to read price action most of all, to see where th momentum is.
We are looking for big candles thar are indicating huge orders.
We will then move 1 time frame lower, to build up our confluences.
Monthly time frame will summon up all the inportance of the month and show us, who was dominating the market for the month, was it the buyers or the sellers?
This will tell us who is really in charge of the bigger picture and it is something we should always keep in the back of our head.
WEEKLY TIME FRAME :-

The weekly time frame is great to look at structure premium price areas and where price has strong biunces, it will give us 4 more candles so we canunderstand better what led to the price action on the monthly.
Did the last last two weekly candle close very strong, or does it look like we are loosing momentum? (Even through monthly close was very strong, the weekly can many times tell us if that will hold or not for the coming days)
We also use weekly to find the strongest support and resistance areas, basically the strongest areas where price could potentially reverse and change direction.
THE DAILY TIME FRAME :-

The daily time frame is our go to time frame.
We will use this every day to hunt the traders we are looking for , and it will be our king every single day.
We are going to look for direction, momentum, premium price areas, wicks, and it will also be used to pint point our stop losses, entries, take profits and our exits.
THE 4 HOUR TIME FRAME :-

The 4 hour time frame is our go to time frame to put the puzzle pieces together so it will line up with the daily time frame.
Don’t i will explain all of this later in the blog, just make sur you read this and write notes down so it will stick your head.
This is SUPER important.
4 hour will tell us exactly when it is time to enter or when it is time to exit trade, as well as minimizing our stop loss, have a more accurate take profit but most important, to monitor the momentum of our trades.
THE 15 MINUTE TIME FRAME :-

This time frame will ONLY be used to monitor our trades that have been excuted.
We will use it to follow our trades and make sure that the movements are moving in our direction, if we are busy, we want the 5/15 minute to show us bullish structure and not starting to break previous low, thus indicationg that the price action on the higher time frames are not holding yet and we should exit immediately.
This is something you will have to practice a lot on and it will be talked a lot of about in the chapter the importance of chart time later in the blog.
