One of the most powerful features of the Signals dashboard is the ability to identify setups that align across multiple timeframes.
How It Works #
- Use the timeframe selector at the top of the dashboard to switch between intervals (e.g., 1H, 4H, 1D).
- The signal list updates to show signals calculated for that specific timeframe.
- Confluence icons appear when the same directional signal occurs across multiple timeframes.
Why Confluence Matters #
- Higher probability: When a trend on the daily chart aligns with momentum on the hourly chart, the setup is more robust.
- Better risk/reward: Multi-timeframe alignment often leads to clearer entry and exit levels.
- Reduced false signals: Signals that only appear on one timeframe may be noise; confluence filters out weaker setups.
Example Workflow #
- Check the 1D timeframe for overall trend direction.
- Switch to the 4H timeframe to find intermediate setups.
- Drop to the 1H timeframe for precise entry timing.
- Look for signals that appear across all three timeframes—these are high-confluence setups.
Pro tip: Use higher timeframes for direction and lower timeframes for entry. For example, if the daily shows a bullish trend signal and the 1H shows bullish momentum, enter on the 1H but manage the trade based on daily structure.
■ Try it now: Find a signal on the 1H timeframe. Switch to the 4H and 1D timeframes to see if similar signals appear. If yes, you’ve found confluence.
