It depends on your trading style. If you don't have one you should define what you want to trade (scalping, day trading, swing trading)

And from there you may need to craft a macros strategy and a micro one, meaning you usually would look at higher timeframes to take better decisions on your main trading timeframe(s)

Depends on your trading style and how much risk you are willing to take. I like 15m or 30m

It all depends on you and your trading plan. Generally, more noise in lower TF charts

T depends on your strategy but for me, 3Om and 1hr are ok

Depending on your trading strategy and level of risk tolerance. For intraday trading, I prefer 15 or 30 minutes, and for swing trading, I prefer an hour.

hello Tom, it really depend of the instrument and you trading style and risk accepting, for me i use 4h to see the general trend, and then i go little time frame like 15min to see if it's the same trend, and i take my trade on the 5min tf when i have a good confirmation candle
