Oh, that's it... I see... you can also get on your head...

Price moves in different directions within a bar, sometimes changing its direction many times. At low time resolution these oscillations are not visible, because they are hidden inside the candlestick. It means that the indicator could blink back and forth 10 times in real time inside the day, and then after the bar closes it locks in the direction of the resulting price movement and it already looks like a smooth line that seems to hold a signal, when in reality it was different. This is why any indicator on such a small scale cannot be evaluated at all, because there is simply no necessary information.

At low time resolution these fluctuations are not visible, because they are hidden inside the candle. It means that the indicator could blink back and forth 10 times in real time inside the day, and then at bar closing it would fix itself in the direction of the final price movement and it already looks like a smooth line that seems to hold a signal, when in reality it was different. This is why any indicator on such a small scale cannot be estimated at all, because the necessary information is simply missing.

To see fluctuations within a candle (high frequency fluctuations), you have to look at small TFs.

So this is the flat section. There is no trend in this area. However, it depends on the interpretation.

Well, it so happens that over there the 4th wave (blue) ended at the highest point, it is the end of an up trend. And then it went downwards. Although visually it seems to be flat after the 3rd wave.

Yes, you are right, visually it seems to be flat.

- What are you reading?

- Stephen Hawking. About the universe and the singularity point.

- What's the singularity point?

- It's a place where no laws apply.

- It's like forex.

 
Beginners are usually lucky in forex. Then they start to study the subject, read books on trading and start to lose money. So don't read anything on trading to keep your head down.

Stop-losses are... What are they? There's no such word in the Bible. It's cowardice to the market for the uninitiated.
