who don't we just analyse a 5-minute chart and Trade it..?!
-------good question
u see , we keep this daily or 4h chart in our memory for long time to come .. and the chart data is still usefull to us .
but this 5-minute chart, every hour you have a completely different picture.
that is one of many reasons.
another reason :
how many times you see what looks like a crash on a monthly-chart ..?!
(may be only once or twice as maximum)
open a 5-minute chart of the same pair (instrument) and see how many times
it had a serious crash. ( a lot of times)
