Everyone always says to zoom out but I’ve got the opposite problem.


My weekly and monthly bias runs so strong I forget the 15min, 1h and even 4h exist. Being right on the macro trend but missing day to day opportunities still bleeds money. HTF bias gives me the direction, but it never gives you the price execution you need to win more frequently.
Most of us are staring at one timeframe and calling it analysis, but the best traders cover multiple timeframes, but settle consistently on their strongest to win long term. The one caveat to this is if you're zoomed too far out like me, opportunities to day trade are incredibly rare.
Trading takes many forms, many strategies and an infinite amount of analysis (fundamental and technical). The important reminder is that there’s more than one way to trade and make money... and the funny reality is, the biggest trading larps don’t even understand that.
What’s a bad habit you won’t admit to?
