What time frame does the 1-2-3 Candle run on?
Quick answerThe daily chart only. Every candle in the pattern is a daily candle, and every call comes at 3:45 PM Eastern, before the day's close.
The details
We tested the pattern on every stock we scan: ten years of daily candles and three years of hourly ones, checked on the most recent 30% it was never tuned on. The daily buy held up there; the 4-hour and 1-hour did not. So the 1-2-3 Candle calls on the daily chart alone.
That is our rule for every system: we only call what tested best (why some setups are never called).
What that means for you
- The pattern takes at least three trading days to form, then a day that trades over the trigger.
- Calls come at 3:45 PM Eastern, before the close (when alerts come), so you can buy before the 4:00 bell.
- A trade lasts up to 30 trading days, about six weeks (the exits).
