Intro

Welcome to the exciting world of ES price action trading!

If you’re like me, you’re always on the lookout for new ways to up your trading game.

One trick I’ve found incredibly useful is using 60-minute bars to guide my trades on the 5-minute chart.

It might sound a bit complicated, but it’s really about getting a bigger picture of what’s going on in the market. By zooming out to the 60-minute bars, we can spot trends and key levels that aren’t as obvious on the 5-minute chart.
