What is your favorite Time Frame?

[andry777]

I think all traders are agree that Time Frame is really important in forex. Each trader has different point of view about Time Frame and which one is the best.

In your view, which time frame that you think is the best in trading? You could choose one or more Time Frame as the best for you because as I knew there

are many traders who combined them.

said that is good. I suggested you to give some of your opinion too because if you don't do that, you could be classified as spamming.

Please pay attention with that

The best time frame I use is H1 as it works good for me with my favourite indicator.

Now this is not like that I am using only this time frame. I also use H4 time frame and sometimes M5 time frame for scalping.

[andry777]

@silenteyes

Oh you liked to use H1 Time Frame. Yeah that Time Frame could be used in short-term and long-term trading, it's like two faces

Time Frame but it's not good if we used in scalping I think. It's important to use the right time frame in the right method.

[boniez]

timeframe can not be uncertain, and depends on the strategies used, I'm sure if they are a scalper then they must use a timeframe of less than H1 and for swing traders must use a timeframe that is more than H1

[andry777]

@Boniez

Yeah, Time Frame is certain condition and we could use it as our method so it's not uncertain although sometimes we could use

it for our goodness and sometimes we could use it but we got badness. It's not about certain or uncertain but that is not suitable

with conditions in market that's it.

Time frames that we use in forex trading differs, there is no best time frame whatsoever, if you are trading long term, then you will consult longer time frames like 4 hours and above, and if you are a scalper, you will use the smallest time frames of 5 minutes, 1 minutes and 15 minutes.

[andry777]

@chuna

That was right. Besides, Time Frame that we used will give different effect in different condition.

It could be different trending time or not when we used different time Frame. It could be when we used 5M Time Frame,

the condition is trending down or up but when we looked in 15M or 30M, it wasn't trending but sideway.

[boniez]

well, every timeframe indicates the different direction although to the same destination, the smaller timeframe will represent the movement of a larger timeframe. the most ideal timeframe for me is H1, because average the news begins with hourly period

[Nikhil]

I also prefer H1 timeframe but recently i am usuing 15M timeframe for scalping in new york session which give me good result. anyway i always done and still doing H1 when not scalping because it give me some clear picture.

[standart]

I trade use 1H time frame and see 30M chart to know the early entry signal. I also see 1D and 4H time frame to see the main trend. I am not entry market if there is no good entry signal, and usually 1 or 2 good signal shown everyday.

[boniez]

I think also the H1 is a time frame for the most comprehensive, so that we can use as a benchmark when trading, whether scalping, or intraday trading

[andry777]

@Boniez

Yes, 1H Time Frame can be used for both short-term and long-term trading but you must use it in different situation. In short-term,

1H Time Frame can be used as description of trending pairs or not but in long-term, we shouldn't use it as description of overall direction

of pair. 1H is only a little bit movement in long-term trading like 5M or 15M in short-term trading.

[hyipreviewblog]

I prefer 4 hours and daily time frame to get more information on market....but sometimes I also use 1 hour time frame...

for long term trading usually I use daily or maybe monthly time frame also...

[andry777]

@hyipreviewblog

If you used that Time Frame so you must be long-term trader because if you are short-term trader, 1H could be used to get informations of market too.

It will depend on our style in trading. If me, I seldom to use 1D Time Frame or week and month Time Frame.

[bloger90]

I'm using 15M,30M,1H charts and will use 4H chart to confirm long turn trend. Mostly open the trade based on 15M or 30M chart and using 1H or 4H as supporting chart. 5M,and 15M are good for scalping

[andry777]

@sasanka

Yes, that was right. 5M and 15M are the best Time Frame for scalping in my view too. Sometimes, you can combine it with 1M Time Frame to know

the fluctuactive of price. It will make you more careful before you made decision.

[Nikhil]

@andry777 yes i also think 5M and 15M is the best time frame for scalping but only for scalping not for long trade which i also prefer and for long still 1H is my best but i also see 30M time frame before enter the long.

[hyipreviewblog]

@Nikhil

For long term trading you can't use 5M or 15M chart cause it will be very risky. But I think trading with scalping ways is very risky cause we can't make prediction how market goes and when sometimes when it goes sideway we don't have enough time to cut loss and can make us loss a lot.

I like to trade forex using Daily Timeframe. The lowest timeframe I trade is H1, lower than H1 is very hard for me. I agree with you that timeframe is one of the important thing in trading forex.

 

In my opinion, each timeframe has a different characteristic, so my trading strategy also different in each timeframe especially for the SL and TP place.

@winzpc

If you like to use Time Frame which is more than 1H Time Frame so you must be long-term trader because 1M, 5M, 15M and 30M time frame

didn't have too much effect for long-term trader/swing trader. Maybe if 30M still could be used but below than it, that is not effective to be used

as long-term trading.

[mohammadbadr]

long term & short term trading each one has its advantages, in long term the mistakes in analysis will be less, as you consider the financial news which are strong and affecting a long period of time also if you look for a trend waiting its break this will be on the weekly frame, and it is the method used by banks and big companies, while in short term, you will feel the profit faster as you open more than one trade daily so it is interesting for those who like trading itself.

[hyipreviewblog]

I prefer to trade on long term system cause markets usually goes one ways in long time when there is bad economic news about one country. Right now when US have an economic crisis you can earn by open buy position on eur/usd pairs. This will take part for some months until there is another economic crisis in other country.

[winzpc]

I like to use daily time frame because it contains much information rather than lower time frames. Once the trend build and valid in daily, it will sustained for a long period. So I can have much profit to run further but also has a negative effect. In daily, my SL will be huge, average is in 100 pips and can cost me loss a lot of money in one trade.
