Hello Traders,

Many clients have asked me: “What time frame you like to use for your charts?”

And my answer is: it really varies….

It depends if I am in scalping/ short day trading mode, if I am looking for bigger/ larger intraday moves or perhaps Swing trading and it depends on the market I am looking at.

When it comes to the Crude oil market for example I like to look first at the 15 minutes chart, followed by 1300 VOLUME chart.

I like volume charts for intraday, short term type of trades because I think when it comes for quick in and out, volume plays more important part than time. Sometimes market may be slow and with out much action and time charts will simply provide false indicators because certain amount of time has passed and a new bar will draw on the chart. On the other hand there are times when volume pours in, market is fast and moving and if you wait for your 3 or 5 minute chart bar to complete…you may miss the move. That is when volume charts have an edge in my opinion.

If the market is fast and volume is coming in, volume charts will draw faster and provide you with signals faster than time charts.

When it comes to the mini SP I also like to take a look at range bar charts along with variable pivot points, like the one you can see below. Especially the last few months with the tight range in the SP500, range bars can give traders another perspective.
