It's funny that you mentioned that... as I really like playing the hourly charts also..

It gives me a bit of a break. I don't have to watch every tick of the tape.

Roughly speaking, I basically look at the market in the morning around 11:00am, then a couple of times in the afternoon.

If things go the way that I think they should, then I stand pat... if not then I trade out of the position.

edit:

I use to watch every tick and tock and trade in and out, and in and out.. watching the five minute bars...

For what reason? To make a few hundred bucks?

It's not worth it to me anymore.

I would much rather try to identify a trend in a 3x loaded ETF and go from there... much more proftiable... All FWIW only
