Anyway, my question is this. Ignoring the spread for the moment, shouldn't any system work just the same on any time frame?
"Ignoring the spread": ....well you canīt ignore the spread, cause in the end of the day every little variable eats up you mini edge, if you are good enough to have one...add to that the good old stop hunters, plus some noise, and you have a whole bunch of head winds piling against you...the advantage of lower time frames is you can repeat your game (hopefully a winner) more often...remember the time axis on every chart is not the time of the pair, is the time of your life, cause chances are, you and me will be gone , but the EURUSD will most likely outlive us...also rent and bills are paid monthly...itīs all about math, plus a good system against the big boys cheating us on everytime frame..rememeber even our brokers trade against us, and they have the advantage of "seeing" all our cards...
Good luck.
