Which one is better?

It depends on your personality!

Let me give you a breakdown of the three to help you choose:

Time frame	Description	Advantages	Disadvantages
Long-term	Long-term traders will usually refer to daily and weekly charts. The weekly charts will establish the longer term perspective and assist in placing entries in the shorter term daily. Trades usually from a few weeks to many months, sometimes years.	Don’t have to watch markets intraday Fewer transactions means less paying of spreads	Large swings which require large stops Usually 1 or 2 good trades a year so patience is required Bigger account needed to ride longer term swings Frequent losing months
Short-term	Short-term traders use hourly time frames and hold trades for several hours to a week.	More opportunities for trades Less chance of losing months Less reliance on one or two trades a year to make money	Transaction costs will be higher (more spreads to pay) Overnight risk becomes a factor
Intraday	Intraday traders use minute charts such as 1-minute or 5-minute. Trades are held intraday and exited by market close.	Lots of trading opportunities Less chance of losing months No overnight risk	Transaction costs will be much higher (more spreads to pay) Mentally more difficult due to frequency of trading Profits are limited by needing to exit at the end of the day.

You have to decide what the correct time frame is for YOU.
