Any idea about identifying the time frame on naked chart ?

hi :)

 

is there is a possible way that someone can know or detect

the time frame for any chart with out the time frame illustrated on the chart

 

i heard that some traders can do that but how they can do it or based on what ?

 

 

thanks

Hmmm - that's an interesting one, I've never heard of any traders who can do that.

 

By nature the markets are supposed to be fractal which means that all time frames essentially exhibit the same properties.

 

The only way I can think of doing this and it will only be an approximation is to look at the success rate of certain candle patterns - candle patterns as a general rule are more successful on the higher timeframes. Another clue may be to look at the "noise" in the chart - 1m charts for example show a lot of noise with plenty of spikes whereas spikes would be a lot less common in the monthly charts.

hi sound fx :)

 

your idea is very good about the cs patterns

 

yes higher time frames are more logic for success of the pattern

 

 

about the noise

the only that i can think is 1M time frame is filled with candles

having same O and L

and also without H OR L

( wicks )

 

just an idea :)

 

 

thanks for sharing and hope others will join us in this discussion :)
