1 candle day to see where the lowest point is searched in the exchange.
the low point is always a reference for me to buy a coin.

because the most lazy and disappointed when I was stuck in the price of altcoins who continue to decline in its price.

I do day trading, so I want to know , How much time better for day trading analysis ? 15m , 30m , 1h , or 1d which time best for day trading analysis?

During the time I traded on the exchange (different asset classes than crypto) I used 5 min timeframes to tune the entry, and then observed 1h timeframe again to see how the market behaves. However, there is not a single correct approach, just try what makes sense to you.

Since day trading is very risky I think 30 minutes time flames should be the best time flames in trading.  15 minutes is too noisy and you may not get accurate predictions or signals from the candlesticks formation.  However to me the time flames do not matter the most if you know what you are doing.

Longer of the timeframe, you will get more confirmations. But, the reversal point or turning point will take more time to show-up and same thing will happen for profit booking too. That is the reason people prefer to go for shorter timeframe. But, when we are entering late, we will be having some advantage even we will be losing some initial profits.

for me personally, I like the 1D time frame because it can certainly be more accurate to determine the direction of the next trend. Then I will use 1H or 30M to execute an open order. If I look at the trend of using 1H down it will be very difficult because there will be lots of random patterns and too fast to determine trends.

[Elwin_Dog]

Yeah it's always a preference thing, but I prefer to place longer trades because they have greater potential for immense profits. So I'll start with monthly (not very useful for crpyto though), then weekly, daily, 4H, and decide from that point if there's something worth investigating further. If I can see a clear reversal forming or a low risk high reward opportunity, then I'll go down to 1H, 30 min, 5 min for an entry. Sometimes it doesn't even matter at that point, as long as you give yourself enough room to be negative for some time. But if you're looking for real precision, you can work on the 5min charts.

1 min charts are quite aggressive and you won't find much in bitcoin because of the decentralized nature of it.

Depending on how much coin you do handle. If you do only focus on 1 coin lets say you are into bitcoin then 15m would be a good spot or depending on your time that you can lent where you can utilize your skills. If you do find out that you arent effective on 15m then you can go with 1hr chart. In my own way no matter which timeframe if i do see some good entry points i do usually make an order.

[m_f_o_c]

For day trading it is best to use either a 15-minute timeframe or 1H. Smaller timeframes will be used for day trading.

[jems]

to analyze the market does not take the same time, every day will take a different time and sometimes faster and it all depends on market conditions. If the market is in a state of chaos I usually take an hour or more just to analyze the market and to choose which coin I will trade.

[mikyadel]

it depends on you preference on the first place . For me , i don't like HFT it's very risky especially for crypto market . i like take things easy to build a picture of the movements first before trading . 5 min and 15 min are amazing with the usage of 1hr time frame as a reference of the current direction .

[chichigirl]

It will definetly depend on your availability and how you manage your trading.  For me,  day trading analysis depend on the coins and the situation. If the coins is already done a huge increase i will surely check it everytime.

Yeah this is another very important point. You've got to think about the volume and the leverage because if you're trading on really long term positions, you might not be able to handle high volume/leverage trades that could move against you. But if you want to take a big position on a shorter time frame, like the 15min, you can take that higher risk knowing that you would have a stop loss in case it went the wrong way. And those kinds of trades need to be babysat. You cannot really walk away from them.

Most time you will wait for transactions and keep track of it every minute. Owning a lot of money will take up all the time you have, not only 30m, 1h, 1d ... It will attract you like honey, it will be hard to leave it.

[Nonie]

for short profits I usually use 15m and 1 hour analysis. that's very good I think because of that it will be seen when prices will go down and up I usually only use 3% stop loss and 2% profit is worth

[CryptYeah]

There is no optimal time for trading) You can buy in the correction period and expect to receive x2 in a week, but you can trade every 15-20 minutes in +, and then the price will drop dramatically and you will not have time to sell. Experience will allow you to determine when it's best not to make a purchase and wait, or vice versa.

Every time frame has its significant use and the lowest is form very short moves or swing trades. It depends in a coin that you were trying to trade and it needs to suits your time frame for a better trading a short term is minutes to 1-2hrs and 4hrs. If you are looking for a complete day trading go with 1 day time frame.

[feelivent]

During the time I have been trading forex and stocks I think many traders makes used of 15 minutes times flames in making they trading decision.  In cryptocurrencies I don't think that much has changed and if you are ready to day trade which is very risky then 15 minutes should be the right time flames.

15 min timeframe will be very short in my experience. We must at least go for one hour timeframe still the best one and most recommended is 4hr timeframe. Because the longer time frame will be slower in generating trading calls, but it will provide the advantage of eliminating fake turning points.

[Indrawan77]

For day trading usually the traders using the 15 minutes time frame, but there are some people used 30 minutes, the traders seldom used 1 hour above time frame because it's a long wait, usually day traders are focused in the monitor for certain time and need to make the trade as efficient as possible because the chart for short time frame could change really quickly

[himtater87]

Analysis will need experience which can not be gained in a fast time. For those who already did daily trading for a longer time they may make a fast decision but for newbie or traders who has no good experience they may need more time to make a single decision.

Yes, accurate analysis will be possible only after years of experience. But, we may start our analysis process with any timeframe. Mostly, new traders prefer quick results that is why they do choose shorter time frames like 5 min, 10 min and 15 min charts. Over the time, they will find the importance of having longer period timeframe for their analyses and trading.
