1. What is a timeframe?
A timeframe is the period represented by one chart candle. A one-minute candle shows one minute of price action; a four-hour candle shows four hours.
2. Timeframes by trading style

3. Multi-timeframe analysis
The basic approach is to identify the trend on a larger timeframe and find entries on a smaller one.
- Use the daily chart to establish whether the overall trend is up or down.
- Use the four-hour chart to check medium-term direction.
- Use the one-hour chart to refine entry timing.
