NinjaTrader (free) has a 1-second or a 1-tick chart, but thanks to CFTC no more free data feeds. (Perhaps if you open a live account with Gain, you might get free data feed - not sure any more?) ...
But I find about a 15-second chart is the lowest one practical to be able to see the swings and trend changes.
ps: There are programs that will capture tick data as it arrives in MT4, and collect it into either an offline history file or a csv txt file. And then from there a x-second, x-tick chart can be built. But these require a constant connection to keep the data flowing as there is no (practical, easy) way to fill in the gaps of missed data.
Duka's JForex platform: any tick/second chart you wish. You can setup a 1 sec, 2 sec... 27sec.. 4min.. 37min chart if you wanna. There are even range bars of any pip size. Realtime and the feed is excellent imo. The only disadvantage: you have to apply for a new demo login every 14 days; you are allowed to use same name/email though.
You can detach the chart out of JForex, make it "always on top" via some windows freeware utility and have it overlaid on your actual trading platform.
Which the smallest time frame can i use? Where can tick chart on forex?

I started to use fxcm trading station tick charts. then Dukascopy second charts, and a few weeks ago I found a nice rangebar creator to build candles on Mt4. No longer time sensitive. Just pure Price.
The reason why I started to use the range bars is that Dukascopy Second charts get messy sometimes, and switching from several Second intervals can be substituted by using the range bars. No gaps, No mess, No more switching time intervals.

the range bar chart is an OFFLINE metatrader chart so no EA function, but you can still use indicators etc.
