could strategy building on tick charts be robust?

Tick charts ease out volatility, so if your strategy gets disturbed by volatility changes...then tick charts is the better way to go...

I can't see any reason why a trendfollowing system could not be applied to 1-minute bars.

But tick charts, probably not.

i think that small timeframe like 1 minute concluded too small opinion about situation on the market. And my shortterm system trade well only on 30 minute. If you use small timeframe grafs you will get a small average winning trade to which will powerfully affect a costs.

Yes true.
Short term systems have higher win % and lower (average win/average loss) than longer term systems.

But the advantages of a short term system is less market exposure and INCREASED trade frequency. The latter is where the appeal is.

I don not think that it a advantage. A trade frequency is not good for a system. I mean that the number of trades must be an actual value for each timeframe.
