Timeframes

Continuing on my previous post on timeframes, I have found momentum trading to be the most profitable and easy to trade. By having a timeframe of few days to a few weeks it is easy to spot and ride a trend even in these volatile markets. What may appear rangebound and directionless to someone with a longer timeframe will appear trending to someone with a smaller timeframe. It takes many hours (more likely years) of research and backtesting to arrive at the correct timeframe. But once you arrive at your sweet spot, its a smooth ride.
