TYPES OF MARKET ENTRY TECHNIQUES
When it comes to looking at entries on zones. There are two types of entries that you can use both of their own pros and cons.
RISK/AGGRESIVE/SET 'N' FORGET ENTRY
the risk entry is aggressive in this case your are placing your buyer limit order on a zone, looking for price to tap into it take you into the trade and continue in your overall trade direction, but it doesn’t provide as much confirmation it does allow for an aggressive entry and provides quick entry when you are not able to be on the screens or if confirmation is simply not available. you practically identify POI on the HTF and using the LTF to refine that POI, set a limit on the refined zone for your entry
An example would be using a H4 POI and filtering the point of interest down to a 15 minute setting a limit order on that 15 minute ZONE.

CONFIRMATION /CONSERVATIVE ENTRY
confirmation entry provides a little bit more confirmation and little more conservative compared to the risk entry. Your entry poi is in the higher TF, you refined using the lower entry
You picked desired a point of interest, dropped down to a lower timeframe and wait for a break of structure in favor of that point of interest and enter off a newly created ZONE.
