After drawing a line on M15, move to M5 for further
confirmation. Take the following actions if you see any of the
following on M5:

Scalping with momentum

Scenario 1
all the conditions met on min 15 are also met min 5
action: mark as high potential set up
scenario 2
all the rules met on min 15 are not met on min 5
action: discard trade immediately and wait for another
signal on m15
scenario 3
all the conditions met on min 15 are about to be met on min 5
action: wait patiently for complete signal formation on
m5 before entering.

example:
The conditions for sell have been met on M15 and confirmed on M5. when you checked Min 30 and H1, you noticed that the BUYING POWER is high. This means the price might not respect the signal and move along with the trend instead.
To detect the trend direction on both M30 and H1, you will check the crossover on the Stochastic Oscillator and MACD histogram formation.
Buy: Stochastic Blue line crosses the Red and moves upward, while the MACD predicts an upward movement.
Sell:Stochastic Blue line crosses the Red and moves downward, while the MACD predicts a downward movement.If all these conditions are met, you can safely enter your trade on M5.

Exit Position

There are methods you can use to determine when the movement is done.The Bollinger Band:
Price reaches the middle band or
Price reaches the last band

The Stochastic Oscillator
The blue Stoch line touches the opposite level, e.g. For a sell entry, the line goes from 80 levels and approaches 20. Vice versa for buy.
Place initial stop loss on the previous swing High/Low.
