Technical analysis is the study of prices over time and the analysis of chart patterns formed by price movements. 

기술적 분석은 시간에 따른 가격 연구와 가격 변동에 의해 형성된 차트 패턴 분석입니다.

 

1)So, a relevant question that often traders ponder is “What timeframe should I choose?”

따라서 트레이더가 종종 숙고하는 관련 질문은 "어떤 기간을 선택해야 합니까?"입니다.

 

2)Another question that traders also frequently ask is “Why does trading timeframe matter?”

거래자들이 자주 묻는 또 다른 질문은 "거래 기간이 왜 중요한가요?"입니다.

 

Well, there is no definite answer to the first question. 

글쎄요, 첫 번째 질문에 대한 명확한 답은 없습니다.

Traders choose different trading time frames depending on their personality, trading strategy, style of trading, and how long they prefer to hold their positions. 

트레이더는 자신의 성격, 거래 전략, 거래 스타일 및 선호하는 포지션 보유 기간에 따라 다양한 거래 시간 프레임을 선택합니다.

 

In order to know the answer to the second question, stay tuned (채널을 고정시키다)and stay with us till the end of the article. 

두 번째 질문에 대한 답을 알기 위해서는 기사가 끝날 때까지 계속 지켜봐 주시고(채널을 고정시키다)  함께 해주세요.

 

What are time frames in trading? 

거래의 시간 프레임은 무엇입니까?

 

There are two approaches to look at timeframes. 

시간대를 보는 두 가지 접근 방식이 있습니다

 

①The first is the time over which traders hold their trading positions. 

첫 번째는 거래자가 거래 포지션을 유지하는 시간입니다.

 

②The second is the time frames of charts traders use to analyze trends and determine their entry/exit points. 

두 번째는 트레이더가 추세를 분석하고 진입/종료 지점을 결정하는 데 사용하는 차트의 시간 프레임입니다.

 

Let’s understand both of these approaches with an example. 

예제를 통해 이 두 가지 접근 방식을 모두 이해해 보겠습니다.

 

If you are a day trader, you will always prefer lower timeframes. Conversely, medium or long-term traders don’t spend their time watching charts with shorter timeframes. Watching 1-minute or 5-minute charts makes no sense for long-term traders. Therefore, they prefer longer timeframes to see only market moves that might be sustained longer.

당신이 데이 트레이더라면, 당신은 항상 더 낮은 기간을 선호할 것입니다. 반대로, 중장기 트레이더는 더 짧은 기간의 차트를 보는 데 시간을 보내지 않습니다. 1분 또는 5분 차트를 보는 것은 장기 트레이더에게 의미가 없습니다. 따라서 그들은 더 오래 지속될 수 있는 시장 움직임만 보기 위해 더 긴 기간을 선호합니다.

 

Why does your trading time frame matter?

거래 시간이 중요한 이유는 무엇입니까?

 

The depth, accuracy, and variety of analysis are the keys to a successful trading strategy. Expert analysts consider several factors to conduct their analysis. Factors range from external factors such as news to key performance indicators (KPIs). However, one key aspect that most analysts often overlook, especially novices, is trading time frames. The trading timeframe is the key aspect because of various reasons. You have to consider timeframes because of several important factors. 

깊이, 정확성 및 다양한 분석은 성공적인 거래 전략의 열쇠입니다. 전문 분석가는 분석을 수행하기 위해 여러 요소를 고려합니다. 요인은 뉴스와 같은 외부 요인에서 핵심 성과 지표(KPI)에 이르기까지 다양합니다. 그러나 대부분의 분석가, 특히 초보자가 종종 간과하는 한 가지 주요 측면은 거래 기간입니다. 거래 기간은 여러 가지 이유로 인해 핵심적인 측면입니다. 몇 가지 중요한 요소 때문에 기간을 고려해야 합니다. 

Here there are!

여기 있습니다!

 

1. Volatility 

변동성)

 

Volatility means the price range of any financial instrument over a particular period of time. Now, if you are a short-term trader, volatility is among the key players that might determine your success. 

변동성은 특정 기간 동안의 모든 금융 상품의 가격 범위를 의미합니다. 이제 단기 트레이더라면 변동성이 성공을 결정할 수 있는 핵심 요소 중 하나입니다.

 

Why so? Because volatility brings greater risks when trading on shorter timeframes. 

On the other hand, a long-term trader is unlikely to bother(신경을 쓰다) much about volatility. Volatility will be less important when you are doing long-term trading, just keep in mind(마음에 새기다) this volatility will still exist but long-term traders will filter it out by aggregating(합산하다) data for longer periods. Therefore, timeframes matter because of volatility in the market. 

왜 그래? 변동성은 더 짧은 기간에 거래할 때 더 큰 위험을 가져오기 때문입니다.
반면에 장기 트레이더는 변동성에 대해 크게 신경 쓰지 않을 것입니다. 장기 거래를 할 때 변동성은 덜 중요할 것입니다. 이 변동성은 여전히 존재하지만 장기 거래자는 더 오랜 기간 동안 데이터를 집계하여 이를 걸러냅니다. 따라서 시장의 변동성 때문에 기간이 중요합니다.

 

2. Position Size and Leveraged Trading 

포지션 규모 및 레버리지 거래

Short-term traders often look for small gains. They intend to profit off )(이익을 끄집어 내다)small price fluctuations. Short-term traders are also interested in leverage trading. Leverage trading allows them to increase their returns. Whereas, long-term traders are less inclined to leverage their trading capital. Long-term traders have to tie up (묶어두다)the capital for longer periods. They try to avoid leverage trading for that purpose as it can be risky and expensive for a long period of time. Thus, trading time frames also matter when deciding your position size and leverage trading. The more leverage the less opposite variation you can sustain so the lower the timeframe.

단기 트레이더는 종종 작은 이익을 찾습니다. 그들은 작은 가격 변동으로 이익을 얻으려고 합니다. 단기 트레이더는 레버리지 거래에도 관심이 있습니다. 레버리지 거래를 통해 수익을 높일 수 있습니다. 반면 장기 거래자는 거래 자본을 활용하려는 경향이 적습니다. 장기 거래자는 더 오랜 기간 동안 자본을 묶어두어야 합니다. 그들은 장기간에 걸쳐 위험하고 비용이 많이 들 수 있으므로 그러한 목적을 위한 레버리지 거래를 피하려고 합니다. 따라서 포지션 규모와 레버리지 거래를 결정할 때 거래 시간 프레임도 중요합니다. 더 많은 레버리지를 사용할수록 더 적은 반대 변형을 유지할 수 있으므로 기간을 단축할 수 있습니다.

 

3. Style of Trading

거래 스타일

 

Choosing a timeframe for your trading is also instrumental in making your style of trading suitable for trading. For example, if you don’t have enough time for conducting market analysis and watching trades, you cannot choose shorter timeframes. Your style of trading requires you to opt for (선택하다)longer timeframes. The flip(휙휙) side (반대측)is active traders who can dedicate(할애하다) enough time for trading. They can afford to pick shorter timeframes. Therefore, timeframes also matter in this regard as well. However, traders often overlook (간과하다)this crucial consideration.

거래 기간을 선택하는 것도 거래 스타일을 거래에 적합하게 만드는 데 중요합니다. 예를 들어 시장 분석을 수행하고 거래를 관찰할 시간이 충분하지 않은 경우 더 짧은 기간을 선택할 수 없습니다. 거래 스타일에 따라 더 긴 기간을 선택해야 합니다. 반대 측면은 거래에 충분한 시간을 할애할 수 있는 적극적인 거래자입니다. 그들은 더 짧은 기간을 선택할 여유가 있습니다. 따라서 시간 프레임도 이와 관련하여 중요합니다. 그러나 거래자들은 종종 이 중요한 고려 사항을 간과합니다.

 

4. Personality type

성격 유형

Another crucial factor is your own personality type. If you are a trader who can patiently wait for a long-term trade to play out,(이루어지다;수행하다)) longer time frames may suit your personality type. Conversely, if you are impatient and can’t sit still for long, shorter time frames suit your personality type. Thus, timeframes also matter in this regard as well.

또 다른 중요한 요소는 자신의 성격 유형입니다. 장기 거래가 이루어지기를 참을성 있게 기다릴 수 있는 거래자라면 더 긴 기간이 당신의 성격 유형에 맞을 수 있습니다. 반대로, 당신이 참을성이 없고 오랫동안 가만히 있을 수 없다면, 당신의 성격 유형에 더 짧은 시간 프레임이 적합합니다. 따라서 시간 프레임도 이와 관련하여 중요합니다.

 

5. Charts and timeframes

차트 및 기간

 

Charts are the major source of timing trades and trade timings are what trading is all about. A successful chart-based trading strategy depends on how you are going to monitor price movements and the timeframes to monitor it(Price) in. Charting signals are more sensitive when using shorter timeframes and vice versa. Traders also need to be more active in watching charts when using shorter periods. On the other hand, long-term traders can watch charts informally (비공식적으로)because they want to stay in the game for longer time frames. 

차트는 타이밍 거래의 주요 소스이며 거래 타이밍은 거래의 모든 것입니다. 성공적인 차트 기반 거래 전략은 가격 움직임을 모니터링하는 방법과 이를 모니터링할 기간에 따라 달라집니다. 차트 신호는 더 짧은 기간을 사용할 때 더 민감하며 그 반대의 경우도 마찬가지입니다. 거래자는 또한 짧은 기간을 사용할 때 차트를 보는 데 더 적극적이어야 합니다. 반면에 장기 거래자는 게임에 더 오래 머물고 싶어 차트를 비공식적으로 볼 수 있습니다.

 

6. Risk and timeframes

위험 및 기간

Trading is a game of risks irrespective(관계치않는) of timeframes, still, the level of risk varies from shorter to long-term timeframes. Short-term timeframes carry less risk (understood as adverse price move) as compared to long-term trading timeframes. Long-term traders look to capture bigger price movements. Therefore, they also need to face greater risks. 

거래는 기간에 관계없이 위험의 게임이지만 여전히 위험 수준은 단기에서 장기까지 다양합니다. 단기 거래 기간은 장기 거래 기간에 비해 위험이 적습니다(역 가격 변동으로 이해). 장기 거래자는 더 큰 가격 움직임을 포착하려고 합니다. 따라서 그들은 또한 더 큰 위험에 직면해야 합니다.

 

7. Trading costs

거래 비용

Short-term traders complete more transactions as compared to long-term traders. That means short-term traders have to bear more trading costs. Thus, timeframes also matter in this aspect as well.

단기 거래자는 장기 거래자에 비해 더 많은 거래를 완료합니다. 이는 단기 거래자가 더 많은 거래 비용을 부담해야 함을 의미합니다. 따라서 이 측면에서도 기간이 중요합니다.

 

8. Trading skills

거래 기술

Short-term traders need to be more skillful and efficient in their trading. As a general rule, you need to be highly skilled and efficient when you trade small price movements over a short period. Only these two capabilities can help you make a profit by trading acute(예리한) fluctuations.

단기 거래자는 거래에서 더 능숙하고 효율적이어야 합니다. 일반적으로 단기간에 작은 가격 변동을 거래할 때는 고도로 숙련되고 효율적이어야 합니다. 이 두 가지 기능만이 급격한 변동을 거래하여 수익을 창출하는 데 도움이 될 수 있습니다.

 

What is the best timeframe for market analysis and trading? 

시장 분석 및 거래를 위한 최적의 기간은 언제입니까?

 

We understand now why trading time frames matter. So, is there anything like the best timeframe for market analysis and trading? The answer is no. No one can assert that this is the best timeframe for profitable trading. What should be the solution then? Multiple timeframes! 

거래 기간이 중요한 이유를 이제 이해합니다. 그렇다면 시장 분석 및 거래에 가장 적합한 기간이 있습니까? 대답은 '아니오. 아무도 이것이 수익성 있는 거래를 위한 최적의 기간이라고 주장할 수 없습니다. 그러면 해결책은 무엇이어야 합니까? 여러 시간대입니다 

Multiple timeframes enable traders to see a bigger picture. For example, you cannot see a bigger trend on a 1-minute or 5-minute chart. If you want to see the bigger trend, you need to look at multiple timeframes and larger time frames. Only in that way, you can better analyze where the price is heading. 

여러 시간대를 통해 거래자는 더 큰 그림을 볼 수 있습니다. 예를 들어 1분 또는 5분 차트에서는 더 큰 추세를 볼 수 없습니다. 더 큰 추세를 보려면 여러 기간과 더 큰 기간을 봐야 합니다. 그래야만 가격이 어디로 향하고 있는지 더 잘 분석할 수 있습니다.

However, the use of multiple timeframes has also some pros. For example, changes in trends first draft some clues on shorter trading time frames. 

그러나 여러 시간 프레임을 사용하면 몇 가지 장점도 있습니다. 예를 들어, 추세의 변화는 더 짧은 거래 시간 프레임에 대한 몇 가지 단서를 먼저 작성합니다.

 

Final thoughts

마지막 생각들

 

Trading time frames matter because of all the aforementioned factors. There is no absolute answer to which timeframe is the best for trading. There is no perfect combination that can guarantee success. A winning trading strategy can be built on any single timeframe or a combination of timeframes. You can also use multiple ones for a better understanding of the market. Still, using multiple timeframes doesn’t guarantee success either. You have to choose your trading timeframe by keeping all the key factors in your mind. 

위에서 언급한 모든 요소 때문에 거래 시간 프레임이 중요합니다. 거래에 가장 적합한 시간대에 대한 절대적인 답은 없습니다. 성공을 보장할 수 있는 완벽한 조합은 없습니다. 성공적인 거래 전략은 단일 기간 또는 여러 기간을 조합하여 구축할 수 있습니다. 시장을 더 잘 이해하기 위해 여러 개를 사용할 수도 있습니다. 그러나 여러 시간대를 사용하는 것도 성공을 보장하지 않습니다. 모든 핵심 요소를 염두에 두고 거래 기간을 선택해야 합니다.
