The perception of things

FX:US30   Dow Jones Industrial Average Index
Is what it is: the indicator, the time or the perception of things which gives price developments?

I say time is central to the perception of things and it gives the price.

Each onto his flag and his time horizon for its trading and yet I remain convinced that the evolution of prices is built day by day because every day is a new day and a friend said a daily market.

Then we can also say every week is a new week every month a new month so personally I think every day is a new day and every day has 12 hours as each hour contains 12 times 5 minutes.

From there I developed the concept as what an average 144 was very important because it represents 12 times 1 hour and every hour was composed of 12 times 5 minutes.

So each indicator has its own kind set up a 12 26 9 MACD or ichimoku 26 September 52 but they correspond well to some time frames but not others.

Example: the ichimoku base LT is a trend following indicator simply because a year has 26 weeks to a semester and 52 weeks for the year pretty much, it becomes inconceivable to use these parameters for trading 4 hour or 1 hour and 5 minutes and that's where everything can change because the indicator influences our perception.

Conclusion must adapt its indicators to its time horizons, it's called optimization. It will be more appropriate to use different ste up for each time horizon and sets up these indicators correspond to it probably will have a better perception of the evolution of prices.
