Is there a lower timeframe than 1 minute?

Beginner Questions
1

I want to make a system based on how the price moved. But sometimes there is a big 1MINUTE 50 pip candlebar, and I know that in that 1 minute it went down or up 50 pips, but I cannot know certainly how it moved inside that 1 minute candle-bar.

Considering it went down. It could have:

  • Gone the 50 pips straight
  • Went down 25, then up 20, then down 20, then 25.
  • Went down 49, then up 49, then down 50.

I know there is renko, ignoring time, but it fails to print past bars because of this.

How can I know all the price movement in metatrader?

I dont know if this is the answer your looking for, but have you looked at tick chartd.

Till date i have not come across a chart with lesser than 1 minute time frame. But you can certainly perform the Intra-Candle trading. :smiley:

Bro, you can have whatever timeframe you want. Ticks, seconds, min, hr etc. It comes down to the charting software you use.

I believe that this women named Jessica who tweets her trades, uses a 15 second chart and seems to do well.

“Established” time-frames generally go down to 15-second charts (there are even faster ones available, sometimes), but if you’re regularly using anything faster than one-minute, I strongly suspect that you should probably be looking at tick-charts, instead.

Excuse the Twitter handle, but I suppose this is the person Hogarste refers to:

a.k.a.

‘Trader Jessica’ …

Anyway, good luck with the tick charts… it takes a special kind of traders to use those, I think!

Gday old m8. No it doesn’t lol. But like all techniques if must be a reflection/extension of the trader and an understanding of how this style of speculating can generate a profit. And above all else and just like any other technique, total commitment to it.

All the best my friend
