$CC The Logic of the Three Maps:
If you want to make money in futures, you don't need to be a clairvoyant. All you need is to be organized and know how to use three 'maps' of the market at the same time.
The logic is simple: One map gives you the direction, another alerts you to the pause, and the last one gives you the green light to enter.
1. The Direction Map (4 Hours)
This is the largest map, the 4-hour one. Think of it as the compass.
- Purpose: Here we only want to know who has the strength. Are buyers pushing (uptrend) or sellers (downtrend)?
- Decision: If the 4-hour map says it’s going up, you only look for buys. If it says it's going down, you only look for sells. Never trade against this map. It gives you the only safe direction.
2. The Warning Map (1 Hour)
Once the price has strongly risen or fallen on the 4-hour map, it has to stop to rest. The 1-hour chart is your alarm.
- It warns you when the strong movement has ended and has begun the correction or pullback (the pause).
- When you see this correction on the 1 hour, you know it's time to wait. The market is correcting, gaining momentum, and if you enter now, you'll get burned.
3. The 'Now Yes!' Map (15 Minutes)
This is the most important map for your money. The 15-minute chart is your trigger.
- Confirm that the 1-hour pause has ended and that the main strength of 4 hours is ready to start again.
- You will see that correction structure in 15 minutes, and you will only enter when the price breaks that structure in favor of the direction of the 4 hours. That break is the signal that the main strength has returned. You enter right at that moment, with the lowest risk.
your rules are:
4H tells you whether to buy or sell.
1H tells you to wait.
15M gives you the exact entry price to join the big movement.
Patience and discipline! The money is not in predicting, but in waiting for the correct signal from the three maps.
DYOR….
