For the past couple of weeks, I’ve been analyzing signals specifically on Pocket Option. In a calm market, everything seems clear enough: I look at the direction on the five-minute chart, then check the one-minute chart, and only after that decide whether to enter a trade. But when the candles start moving sharply, my approach falls apart—the indicators often show one thing while the price has already moved in the opposite direction.
I tried keeping only the levels and watching the price reaction. It became a bit clearer, but I ended up with very few signals. I also noticed that different chart timeframes are sometimes interpreted differently on the platform itself, especially when switching between them quickly. How do you filter out these situations? Do you wait for confirmation from the next candle, or do you skip periods with sharp price spikes altogether?
