Charts

For short term trades are 4 hour charts much more helpful than a one month daily chart?
Also, what time frame charts should be used to find patterns , such as
head and shoulders, cup and handle, etc?

Thanks

“short term” is relative, if you are referring to intra day trading I would recommend 1H and below. You can however use the daily or even 4h for analysis and then enter on the lower time frames.
The higher the time frame the more relevant a pattern is.
