After the BMC and confirmation of the downtrend we are interested in recruiting a position above the daily open or at its level. Since the movement is downtrending, the price is expected to continue below the daily open.

On the LTF, the recruitment of a short position should take place in the area of the highlighted areas of blue.

In the case of an uptrend, a set of positions below or at the level of the opening should be considered. Exactly the opposite. The example of the daily opening was given selectively. Any other opening level (weekly, monthly, yearly) can be selected depending on the determining HTF positioning. The opening levels can also be used as implied local resistance support levels. This will allow applying them for management/position entry on the LTF.
