What is LTF (Lower Timeframe)?

Charts

LTF (Lower Timeframe)

A smaller time unit than the one currently being viewed. It reacts quickly but contains much noise, so its direction flips often. Looking only at small units makes it easy to judge against the larger flow, so the direction of the larger unit is checked first.
