Last week was low volume range trade and not a good sample. Sometimes are better than others in either market. Pick which one you like and accept that or become proficient at trading multiple markets.
Consider tick charts, they're endlessly variable and yes in higher volatility I have to use more limit entries but there are other entries than bar takeout.
