Higher the Time Frame the more reliable the old tried and true Market structure princibles will work .
Things like CZ zones Trend lines and Fib retracements become very reliable.

Small Time frames are mostly just Chaos with just enough Structure to trick you into thinking you can be profitable.
Trading is actually pretty simple small time frames make it Impossable

All and none. Choosing a TF that fits your trading style & risk will be more of an advantage than trying to find a correct TF bc there isn't one.

IMHO, daily or higher TF is easier if only the candle formations, S&R areas and etc seem to mean more. In a lower TF, it is easier to manipulate. However, I don't have the patience for daily or higher.

It always depends on a trader and his deposit. If your deposit is big enough, it would be easier for you to make profit on bigger time frame

You should have had a different question as you want to know 2 things
1. Who is profitable and the TF they are using
2. Who is not profitable and the TF they are using

good idea though, but you just have to listen to yourself before any books or articles...

I wish you luck,

Your account size has nothing to do with It you can trade Micros on any time frame. You need Good money management what ever TF your on .
100 pips is ten bucks in teh 5 min or the 4 hour so account balance has nothing to do with it.

Yeah i completely agree with Landfar, because I am having a 100USD account and i trade on H4 using small lot size. MM is a very important factor, if MM is good then u are 70% profitable. I would say that in a trending market smaller time frames are good. I trade on H4 so a good analysis is done and beneficial in long term.

have a nice weekend
I am the one and only profitable forex trader, but not the only one

5 and 15 min suit my style and personality the best. But still it is very important to check the situation on 1H and 4H from time to time.

None of the above .... remove time from the equation and the picture becomes much clearer.

Hi .. i think that most profitable is good trading strategy .. doesnt matter, which timeframe do you trade .. just you should know what do you do. For me personally is best 5 min + 1 hour Timeframe
