Mapping Higher-Timeframe Fractals onto Lower-Timeframe Charts
Summary
The document describes a multi-timeframe fractal indicator that displays fractal points from a higher timeframe on a lower-timeframe chart. This lets a trader see higher-timeframe turning points while viewing more granular price action.
An optional line extends from the prior fractal point until a candle closes beyond it, marking when price crosses that level. Another option identifies the candle on which the higher-timeframe fractal becomes validated. The description explains the indicator’s display features, but provides no trading rules, performance evidence, or guidance on interpreting signals. Fractals are only confirmed after subsequent price action, so the validation marker may appear after the potential turning point; the document does not discuss this timing risk or other limitations.
Key ideas
- The indicator projects higher-timeframe fractal points onto lower-timeframe charts.
- An optional horizontal level extends from the previous fractal until a candle closes across it.
- A setting can mark the candle that validates the higher-timeframe fractal.
- The description provides no evidence of profitability or a complete trading method.
