Intraday trend trading, the best time period

To judge the trend of intraday trading, we all know that there are 24 hours in a trading day, and how many K lines are there:

1/5 K weekly line

1 daily bar

6 4-hour candlesticks

24 1-hour candlesticks

48 30-minute candlesticks

96 15-minute K lines

1440 5-minute K-lines

Assuming that a small-level trend within a day needs to be identified by walking out of 5-13 K-lines, then the periods that can be passed first for intraday trend judgment include weekly charts and daily charts; 4-hour, 1-hour, 30-minute, 15-minute, and 5-minute periods Both can identify a small-level trend, and the intraday level trend can be calculated as follows:

4 hours 1 level

1 hour 4.8 to 1.8 levels

30 points 9.6 to 3.6 levels

15 points 19.2 to 7.3 levels

5 points 288 to 110.7 levels

According to the Dow theory, there are three types: primary trend, secondary trend, and short-term trend.

The higher the level, the better the reliability of the trend, so there is no doubt that 4 hours is the best period for us to judge the intraday trend.

According to the main points of Dow theory trend judgment: two high points (low points) and one low (high) point are needed to judge a basic trend direction, that is, a period of at least 15 K-lines.

Then it can be calculated that: 30-minute, 15-minute, and 5-minute periods can reach at least 15 moving averages, excluding those that do not meet the entry level: 1-hour period.

Calculate one level of 13 K lines according to the maximum value: then 30 minutes and 15 minutes can be excluded, and 8.4 levels can be exited in 5 minutes.

Therefore, the best level to choose entry is: 5 minutes

Comprehensive conclusion:

Intraday trend trading, the best period to judge the trend: 4 hours.

The best period for admission: 5 minutes.
