Ok so if you're trading ETH or SOL futures, seriously stop staring at the 15M or 30M charts. I used to do that too and honestly it's mostly just noise, you end up reacting to every little wick instead of actually trading.
1HR is where you get real clarity. You can actually see where price wants to go instead of getting faked out every 10 minutes. Since I switched to 1HR my entries got way cleaner, less stress too, not gonna lie.
But this doesn't work the same for everything. Coins like CYS, SOL, RAVE and other smaller names, forget this theory, it just doesn't apply there. Their charts are all over the place no matter what timeframe you use.
Here's my honest opinion, ETH and SOL have way more liquidity and consistent volume so the higher timeframe actually means something. Low cap coins can get pumped or dumped by literally one big wallet, so even 1HR won't save you there. With those you just gotta be extra careful with your position size and never go in heavy, doesn't matter what setup you're looking at.
Also one thing I always tell people, timeframe alone won't make you profitable, it just filters out garbage signals. You still need proper risk management or none of this matters anyway.
Trade smart, not fast.
