Trading with Multiple Time Frames
While
browsing weekly charts, you may come across some interesting set-ups that offer
great trading opportunities. For example, a Tweezer Bottom is a pattern where
the lows of two or more bars are at, or very near, the same price. Often a
Tweezer Bottom on a weekly chart will be a Double Bottom down on the daily
chart. Vice versa for a Tweezer Top.
Figure
8-9 shows a weekly chart of SPLS with a Tweezer Bottom. The tweezer formed at a
floor that had been established several months prior. On the daily chart,
traders see a bullish Double Bottom. However, they may not notice that the
pattern is testing a strong floor unless they compress the daily chart or shift
to the weekly time frame. SPLS trended up for several weeks following the
successful retest of the strong support.
