My favorite markets and time
frames:
If there is one lesson that you
should accept right now, that will save you A LOT of time and money, it’s that trading the daily charts is the easiest thing you can do to
reach your goals as a trader. Now, to be a little bit more specific…if you
start off your trading career trading small time frames like the 5 minute and
15 minute charts, you’re going to experience a lot of frustration, lost time,
and lost money. You see, these small time frames contain more variables for you
to analyze (and over-analyze), this means more “noise” or random price movement
that isn't really impactful or meaningful. When you move up in time frame you
get a natural “filter” that works to smooth out the noise and confusion of the
small time frames. The daily chart gives you the best
view of the market and also provides the most effective filter against the
noise of the small time frames. I also trade the 4 hour time frame quite often,
and occasionally the 1 hour charts, but I NEVER look at any time frame under
the 1 hour.
My favorite markets to trade are the
EURUSD and AUDUSD, but each day I will typically scan through all the major Forex pairs looking for price action trading
opportunities. I also trade gold and silver and occasionally look at crude oil,
the Dow Jones cash market, as well as some of my local Australian stock
indexes.
