You need bigger TFs for direction 1hr and above, smaller for entry, 15m , 5m, 1m for entry.... always keep an eye on a few different TFs... I prefer down to 1min or even less entrys... trade only uk and us times to start.
Interesting that there are the most votes for a daily TF. In my experience the greater the TF then the greater the stop should be. The average daily range on the S&P 500 for instance is about15 points. So double that for a reasonable stop to be about 30 points.
