For MNQ/NQ anything smaller than 15s would be noise. 15s is just right. The sweeps & breaks are tradable. For greater insight, please view prior tutorial posts on hinges. Each of the above trades are what I call squeezed hinges. The first number is the sweep (l). The second number is the lip (h). If PX closes above the lip the trade setup is valid. Entry = pullback to the lip. If you are a serious day trader, you use a version of this plan. If you would like to be, you will take the time to learn this plan. Atomic IF-THEN Logic-Chain: IF sweep THEN hinge. IF hinge THEN break. IF break THEN trade setup is valid. It really is that simple.
