Work a Full Time Job?

Trade from your phone?

Can't sit in front of the screens all day?\

I have a solution for you.

The 30m chart 🧵 1. Why the 30m Chart?

The 30m chart is better than the hourly chart because the stock market is open 9:30am-4pm. Therefore the hourly chart will give you goofy candles. However, the 30m chart will give you 13 clean candles and the hourly 6.5 candles (math.)
