They explain that Renko and tick charts provide a sense of momentum that time-based charts alone do not show. The setup involves using multiple time frames simultaneously, such as 15-second, 30-second, and 1-minute charts, with Renko charts aligned to these time frames through a wrinkle optimizer tool. 01:14 Optimal Renko brick size adjustment explained 01:14 The video explains how the optimal Renko brick size is determined dynamically for a trading instrument during a session.
