Re: How vital is the timeframe that you pick for your charts?

How liberal are you with your definitions of your candlestick patterns on those really small time frames? In a fast moving market a 55 or 89 tick charts candles are pretty much worthless same with even a 2000v candle. A 1 minute candle can be relatively speaking, a much "longer" term candle than the candles mentioned previously as the candle has more time to form.
