• Four-hour time frame

• One day time frame

• One year time frame

Big confusion now to select which time frame is best for trading.

Let's go to step by step,

First, check out Basic Trading Time Frames,

Most of the trader knows that time frame divided into three-time frame 

Short term timeframe: one minute, fifteen minutes and thirty minutes.

Medium-term time frame: one Hour and four hour

Long term time frame: more than 1-day time frame

If you using day trading strategy then the short term time frame is best for you

If you close your position before the closing of the day then short to medium time frame is best for you. Swing trader and Scalpers mostly use this time frame to take advantage of the movement of the market.

Let's think in a different way,

Categories time frame by your holding time then,

Long term time frame is for several month holding

Medium-term holding for several week holdings

Short term for several days holding 

My personal opinion is 

I use One-hour time frame for Intraday Trades

If I take trade for long term then I prefer One day Time frame.
