Forex Trading Free Strategies - My favorite markets and time frames

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.
