The same patterns occur on all time frames. Personality and time availability dictate which time frame you choose. So, shorter term is more 'visceral', if you like feeling the pulse of something, are more instinctual and are less theoretical then a short term strategy can be very satisfying. The market is a living thing, can you get ' under the skin' of it? And of course each market has a different personality. Look at it coldly and objectively or try and feel its spirit. Sounds a bit nebulous, I know, but if you put the hours in you will understand. Oh, and don't forget the news...the other side of the coin.
