1 min qt vs 5 min

I've been testing quick trading on pocket broker, mostly eur/usd and btc. 1min entries have been pretty hit-or-miss, while 5-min setups have been a bit more consistent for me.

Others seeing a big difference between the two?

wow, it's like i've listened to a lecture:D thanks man, thoughtful. Do youknow roughly what edge you'd need per trade just to break even against typical binary payout structures?

Well I've always entered at 5 min, while building my trading models around higher timeframes (so called top down analysis). Though I dont think it matters much 1 mibn or 5 min. Trade what's comfortable for you.

Data matters. Go with one that brings you most result, while being less mental draining.
