I have had some good time scalping some crosses recently (allocating small amounts) ...best way to trade during ranging markets!! I look at 1 min and 5 min for fun though.
5 - 30 sec? you're the man!

I am wondering, what percentage of trades turn out not to be profitable?

thanks buddy!!
Plot my rainbow chart in 10 sec or 30 sec and watch the chart for a day... You will have more fun... LoL

My system really doesn't allow me too focus on one or even two time frames, I generally look at 3-5 time frames. I do sometimes glance at the daily plus but mostly focus on 5 min too 1h, using the 4h as minor trend gauge. I've also been known too play the 1, 5 & 15min which is a blast for gbp when it's really moving. So to answer the question it really depends on the market, but if I had too pick one the 15min, even though as I say 15min, it feels wrong.

I'm looking for a broker that will provide demo charting that permits 3 hr charts. A server using London time would also help.

Can anyone recommend a provider?

Thanks

Toyboy, thanks.

Tunera, I use MT4. All I see is the option to use, 1m,5m,15m,30m,1hr,4hr,1d,1wk,1mth.

Can you describe how to view 3hr charts on MT4?

Thanks
Rob

I use 1 hour and 4 hour charts most of the time with excellent results. On occasion I'll use the lower time frames 5 min, 15 min, 30 min, but I have better results with the higher time frames. On occasion I'll even use a 2 hour chart.
