smartconsultant Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Re: time frame for intraday trading Correct! Constantly observe and trade 5M, optimize entries and exits at 1M Look at signals, especially long term support resistance or fibonacci, at every time frame, especially daily (for instance EURUSD was very close to 50% fibonacci level of 1.4194 these days -- staying below that level would confirm a downtrend, breaking over that level would be bullish, etc.) I don't use oscillators in 5M and 1M though, they are too noisy or useless at such short time frames.

syk1kz Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 M1 is noise and useless for intraday trades, scalping however M1 is fine M5 could be used to optimal entries when trading intraday but if you want true intraday price action you need to be on M15. M15 is considered the intraday timeframe that the day traders will use, google INTRADAY TRADING TIME FRAME and you will see 90% of sites and traders agree M15 is intraday, anything less or higher is not. there are some good intraday threads on here with alot of peoples journals.

superdata77 Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 You should look for trend on 1 H chart. Use 15M chart for entry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syk1kz Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 i would agree with superdata, use the higher timeframe to look for the trend and enter of M15 if you want intraday action, anything else is not considered intraday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alankw88 Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 You should look for trend on 1 H chart. Use 15M chart for entry Agreed. Higher timeframe for less false signal. But, at least monitoring 3 pairs because H1 is not produce signal everyday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janina21 Posted April 19, 2018 Report Share Posted April 19, 2018 I am trying to know about the trend on h1 time frame and taking entries on 15m charts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
⭐ RodrigoR7 Posted May 1, 2018 Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 Hello Janina21. you can use Alexandre Elder's Triple Screen method. You will follow 3 different graphical times as example the monthly, weekly and daily period. when the three are in the same trend you enter the operation for the shortest graphical time. Of course this is just a simple example, but it is only for you to understand the line of reasoning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wanloong Posted July 11, 2018 Report Share Posted July 11, 2018 Frankly speaking, entry is not an issue. The problem is when to exit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 ECB's Makuch says he may consider leaving his post early Hi guys, which time frame do you use for intraday trading? And what do you think, which pairs are the most predictable? Regards matias European Central Bank policymaker Jozef Makuch may consider stepping down as head of Slovakia's central bank early to allow parliament to appoint a successor before what are expected to be highly divisive elections in spring 2020, he said. That would avoid the prospect of political wranglings leading to his post being left vacant for an extended period, as has happened in Slovenia, which has been unable to pick a new governor since March. Makuch, whose term ends in 2021, told reporters he considers finance minister Peter Kazimir as a suitable replacement. "The next government will likely be made of several parties with a different world view," Makuch said, addressing rumors in the Slovak press that he is preparing for an early departure. "That could lead to political instability and early elections." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted September 19, 2018 Report Share Posted September 19, 2018 The U.S. dollar slipped, while the Japanese yen hovered near a two-month low on Wednesday as investors digested the latest trade news. The US Dollar Index, which tracks the greenback against a basket of other currencies, was down 0.07% at 94.16 by 12:26AM ET (04:26 GMT). The dollar slipped after Beijing announced on Tuesday retaliatory tariffs that targeted more than 5,000 U.S. products worth $60 billion. The new tariffs would take effect on Sep 24, China’s Ministry of Finance said in a statement. The country’s commerce ministry also filed a complaint to the World Trade Organization (WTO) against the U.S., according to reports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted September 20, 2018 Report Share Posted September 20, 2018 The dollar hovered near a seven-week low against a basket of major currencies, in part as safe-haven demand for the U.S. currency ebbed on relief that tariffs the United States and China imposed on each other's goods were set at lower levels than some had feared. The British pound stepped back from two-month highs on caution over whether the European Union and UK can reach a Brexit deal at their ongoing summit while the New Zealand dollar jumped to three-week highs on Thursday after strong domestic GDP data. The dollar index stood at 94.554 (DXY) (=USD), near its seven-week low of 94.308 touched on Tuesday as its more risk-sensitive rivals held firmer.

Guest Guest Posted September 26, 2018 Report Share Posted September 26, 2018 The U.S. Dollar was unchanged on Wednesday as markets awaited the conclusion of the Federal Reserve’s latest meeting, while the New Zealand Dollar jumped against the dollar on a better-than-expected business confidence report. The Fed is widely expected to hike interest rates later in the day. Markets also anticipate another rate hike before the year end, although the outlook for 2019 is less clear, according to analysts. As well as an interest rate decision, the Federal Reserve will also serve up its summary of economic projections, outlining policymakers' expectations on economic growth, inflation and unemployment. The U.S. dollar index, which tracks the greenback against a basket of other currencies, was unchanged at 93.73 by 11:01PM ET (03:01 GMT). The index has slipped around 3% since August.

Guest Guest Posted September 27, 2018 Report Share Posted September 27, 2018 Markets Weaken With Russell 2000 Leading Lower That one-day bounce in the Russell 2000 last week is looking like a long time ago as yesterday finished with a cut below its 50-day MA. Technical are fading fast as relative performance began a cliff fall. While other indices haven't shown this same level of weakness it's a worrying start as Small Caps' typically lead. The slower channel remains intact so it's not a full on reversal yet. The NASDAQ 100 started brightly and looked to have generated a solid move to challenge its bull trap before sellers pushed it back to its starting point - leaving a 'gravestone doji'. While the Russell 2000 struggled yesterday, the weak finish for the NASDAQ 100 wasn't enough to register as a support break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted September 27, 2018 Report Share Posted September 27, 2018 The NASDAQ had already lost support prior to yesterday, but there was no acceleration to the downside. The S&P left another 'bull trap' in its wake but didn't give up (newer) channel support; it's still a long way from the long-standing summer channel - illustrated by the thin blue line. For today, keep an eye on the Russell 2000. It looks like it wants to lead lower and this will be bad news for other indices. If there is to be a bullish surge, then the NASDAQ 100 will be the index most likely to lead out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edith1995 Posted October 6, 2018 Report Share Posted October 6, 2018 For intraday trading, the 1 min and 5 min you will be listening to a lot of noise M15 and above is recommended.

Guest Siyan jheel Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 The most commonly used time frame on an intraday chart is 1 hour, also known as an hourly chart. Depending on your trading style and preference you can have charts as low as tick charts which is a chart that plots price every second.
