I’ve got a question recently by one of you asking…
“How do you trade when multiple timeframes are in conflict?”
Now, I’m sure this is a question you can relate to.
Imagine:
You’re looking to long on the Daily timeframe (perhaps there is a bullish setup).
But on the weekly timeframe, the market is in a downtrend. So, what do you do?
Do you still go long?
Do you go short?
Or stay out?
And this is what you’ll learn in today’s episode — how to trade when there are conflicting timeframes in your trading.
So, click below to watch it right now…
Then go read this post on how to use multiple timeframes analysis in your trading.

    Extra option (from Oliver Velez): when in conflict, continue to trade but reduce your hand/lot/volume.

    I wait for the time frames to align but if my shorter time frame says cover/buy and then watch as the stock goes up and up I begin to wonder if I'm making the best choice.

    Rayner in trading with timeframe, should we look at the lower timeframe or higher timeframe for entry?

    I've been entering on the 2min time frame. But I watch the 2min, 5min, 15min, 30min time frame. The 2min time frame appears to be to fast for me. I'm going to try out the 5min for entries, 15min entries/confirmation as well as the 1hr.

    you said you stick with 200 MA..On weekly it is above and on daily it is below… So would you go short on daily time frame once price tests 200MA???? or are you trying to saying you will go long on weekly time frame once pirce test 200 MA?? Please a bit confusing…
    …I believe you wanna go short on daily time frame once price test 200 MA..

    Hi rayner i just have a question abput using these multiple time frames, where is it more suitable to draw the support and resistance would it be the entry time frame or the higher time frame ?

    Thanks for giving me a really loud laugh : Saving retail traders from self destruction….

    Easy – If there are conflicting time frames (1 Hour downtrend and 4 hour uptrend) STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM THAT PAIR – there are millions of other currency pairs to trade from, and that conflicting time frame pair would have changed by the next day – YOU DONT HAVE TO TRADE EVERYDAY!!!!!!

    Hey Raynor, Love your videos. I have just binged watched every video /books on your website this weekend. I will most certainly be joining your academy shortly. I just have a question, how many trades a day do you recommend, especially if you are trend following. Also what platform is best for futures, commodities etc. I am focusing on Trend following. Thank you in advance and keep up the inspiring work!

    I love the word "analysis paralysis"

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Puneet Narula Prahlad says:

    @rayner teo does "wait for align" means wait until 200 moving chart turns on a same direction? Thanks for your help Rayner.

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars uzumaki1235 says:

    Rayner if I'm trading the daily time frame but he 1h and 4h are going the opposite direction… what do you do? Thanks

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars thaalay says:

    Hi Rayner, love your videos bro! Can you make a video on how to club these multiple time frames along with their respective MACD indicators to arrive at a long/short decision? Happy new year!

  18. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Malik Tukur says:

    Thanks Rayner. I like that bit about avoiding Analysis Paralysis using just not more than 2 timeframes.

    Bro…you are one of the best teachers online hands down…..this video helped me out beyond words……i have been entering my trades on the eurjpy 30 minute chart from a double stochastic oversold confluence 5,3,2 and 14,3,3 settings …i only buy…..one time i caught 16 trades and a row and another time time 14 trades in a row …..and started getting frustrated because i wasn't hitting my targets at times and then realized oh….when the 4hour channel is up i was catching its pullbacks…then i started learning about higher highs and higher lows more for trend identification. Then realized i need the daily to be in an uptrend as well to give me even more room for my targets entering the 30 minute oversold stochastics. Therefore your video is excellent excellent excellent because it makes you understand for my strategy wait for confluence of the 2 different time frames. so my goal is the daily and 4 hour trend confluence. So i am so glad you mentioned the 200 moving average….so i will use both 200 moving and higher high higher lows because i look at 24 pairs now. In which i have just learned from what your saying as well that you need to look at more assets because double time frame confluence takes a longer time to align…..thanks

    Rayner GREAT info! But I suggest u use South African RAND rather than AFRICAN Rand it don't make sense! It is like saying Asian Baht!rather than Thai Baht!

  21. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Andrew Le says:

    Hi Rayner, if I decide to use the 100 EMA as a trend filter, how would that change compared to 200 EMA as a trend filter (for long/short bias). I assume I can get can look to enter a position quicker with a 100 EMA trend filter as opposed to the 200 EMA and also I won't be able to trade in that bias for too long since it's a shorter period EMA? Anything other difference?

  24. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Ronald Armstrong says:

    Do u set your support and resistance on da higher time frame or lower time frame?

  25. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Richard mashamaite says:

    Weekly timeframes is also on downtrend, titanic ship take time to turn than small boat.

  26. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Cheech says:

    Thanks, Rayner. But I'm still kind of confused on how to use the factors. IE, If I'm looking at a 1 minute chart, then would the 'higher' timeframe be a 4 or 6 minute chart? If so, do I look at the longer timeframe to determine the latest swing low or high?

    I really need help on entering my trade. If I wait for the price to define its current support…then I want to have it test that support….well, by then its off and running and I can't get in at the low price I wanted. Any videos on this?
