Yea, I felt absolutely sick during May when tried to get used to 1min... It was a very serious pressure I must say... And took over a month to more or less start to see in 1min. But in exchange it's way clearer and I can even post trades now without disturbing my view...
The bigger picture helps, i used to trade intraday hourly set ups, and i do know at least one trader that does that full time with enormous success...but...it's hard to just sit there and wait for the right set up, with the correct RR, and you will get stopped out a lot of times. This really is no more difficult than trading longer TF's (in fact probably easier IMO) and it's also a lot more active, think of it this way: tomorrow you will be trading at the European open and you'll get plenty of opportunity's to get it right or wrong, just like me and many others, but you can't say the same about longer term trading....there's a lot of waiting involved. Anyway all i needed was to see someone doing it successfully, you'll have to say that CFerret is well on his way, that's good enough for me, i'll keep trying untill i perfect my technique, even if i have to eat a bit of humble pie allong the way.....
