the timeframe can determine how our strategy is longterm or sortterm
Usually, short term trading strategy will choose a small timeframe like M15, but an intraday trader can use H1 but also need to pay attention with a higher timeframe daily just to figure out the major trend.

if I trade in the long run using Timefarme H4 analysis and as an open reference on Timefarme M30, what do you think, because in one week sometimes orders always stay overnight

That's right sir, Watching that larger time period is very important even for everyday traders, thus making traders safer from fast-paced market movements.

It`s a good idea to use larger period timeframe, to analyze major trend for long term, but sometimes scalping tey ignore long term trend, because they catch small target usually less than an hour, they will never let order opened overnight because risky

Timeframe plays an important role in an analysis, to be more precise in the analysis must consider several timeframes. Don't just focus on one TF.

Utilizing a timeframe is very helpful, a strategy system by looking at TF is highly recommended.

The timeframe used to choose a trading style, its impossible scalping trader will use daily timeframe, and rarely trader swing using M5 timeframe, but as a trader needs to analyze all timeframe to get figure out the overall trend market

In my opinion, a good timeframe is 4 times that of a small timeframe. for example if you decide on a daily entry then you should see weekly timeframes. if you use H4 then you should see daily timeframes

4 times the trading time is perfect, I also think that the timeframe used must be adjusted to the trading pattern

choosing the right timeframe is something that all traders should know if you are scalping, you should use H4 if daily, if you swing weekly

The trading period must be right . must be patient to be able to choose and see the trade movements on h4 and D1
Time frime will be help trader to know price action up date. Profesional trader usually use their own time frime to decide their transaction.
