What is your preferred TF for the following? and why? FE and TC CE
no preferred TF for entry.
for me can be h1 if SL is say 30 pips. keep on switching until a TF that satisfy your risk tolerance SL.
FE can be break out of engulf, 2nd one with confirmation.
prefer to keep chart at h4 until price is near zone. upon alert switch 1 or 2 tf lower.
i prefer not to see ltf movement which can hinder my original plan.
also can take a look every half an hour or one hour.

What is best sl if i use 1 min tf ?
no such thing as "best".
all depends on your risk tolerance.
you can place SL just outside the m1 or m5 engulf box.
if providing 1% SL then adjust your position size accordingly.
m5 engulf box will be further away than m1, so your position size will be smaller.

The money you ready to loose, for example if trading a 10K account 1% risk per trade will cost 100$ SL, so adjust your lot size accordingly as it could be 10-20-30-40-50 pips probably last swing high/low depending quality of trade execution.

you only need 1 good trade a day for 1% equity return.
do not remain in small time frames too often.
after i got alert from h4 engulf, i keep the screen on h1 or m30.
wait for the A+ setup.
if there is none so be it.

algo style = scan all engulf and trade all engulf = 25% win rate
ITB style = filter out setup = 75% win rate
