When day trading, which time frame chart do you use and why (1 min, 5 min, 15 min?)

1 min if I am scalping during the last 15 min of trading day... 15 min for other day trading setups. I use only support and resistance levels. Observe the price vs volume action.

3 minutes for me with the various SMAs and EMAs. 1m is too much noise for me personally
2, 5 and 15 min TF for short term trends. Daily for PTs on spikes/runners.
1 and 5 but I start w the daily and I love the hourly as well...I do sprinkle in the 15 too

I like 1 min for entries and exists to time it as precisely as possibly. The 5 is more forgiving while things are moving as you expect

If I’m going off short sellers reports I use 1 minute. Take a big position as soon as news is out. Sell half within first 5-10 mins. Ride rest of the position

5 min. I’m only available for the last 2 hours before close. I’m in the uk.
