i have seen some traders who check the bigger time frames when their positions go against them. They trade intra-daily using a small time frame like 15 min, but when their positions go against them, they check the bigger time frames like one hours or 4 hrs and convince themselves that although the position (which has been taken based on the 15 min chart) is against them, the one hour and 4 hrs charts are in the right direction and they can get out without any loss very soon. Then when the market keeps on moving against them, they refer to daily and weekly charts. Someone who wanted to be an intra day trader, becomes a swing trader.
