What time chart(s) do you trade/look at?

I noticed, that most have timecharts they are "comfortable" with.

So I wanted to know what most look at, and if you look at multiple, and trade only one, etc.. please, do tell.

Good evening TwoBlink:

I use a mutiple monitor set-up....so I have room to scan the following timeframes. 1,3,5,10,15,30,60 minute charts...as well as 2,3,4,8 hour charts along with daily and weekly charts.

The reson I use so many, is that generally, if you look close enough....and use enough moving averages (simple, exponential, weighted, smoothed)...you can find a dominant timeframe...and a dominant moving average for each currency. Something that acts as a "trigger" under current market conditions. That in fact may change as the market changes...so it is an ongoing pursuit to find the "trigger moving average".

Omce you find that timeframe, and a specific moving average that seems to be the trigger...then you can set an alert system, so that when price comes within a pre-defined parameter (10-20 pips) your alert system goes off. This will allow you to scan other currency pairs, while not having to watch the specific pair in question, and yet be ready to make the trade if it comes into the "trigger-zone".

Hope that helps expain a little of what I do...and what I look for.
