Second based charts for Daytrading?

[CannonTrading_Ilan]

I like range bar charts for charts under 10 minutes time frame. On ES I use 10 ticks range bar. Crude I use 19 ticks. NQ 23 ticks. Try and see if the range bar charts filter the noise and help. For some it really helps, for others not so much,,,depends on the underlying strategy. You can see more here.

Hello, i`m usually use 1m charts for my entry and exit for daytrading but consider to use 10s or 15s charts to get a better entry. Does this make sense?
For using Ninjatrader i must subscribe either to kinetick or barcharts because with an IB datafeed i don´t get historical timeprints. On Ninjatrader the first second bar i get is the one at the time i opened the chart. But when opening a second based chart on IB´s tws i see all second bars for the entire day. That is something strange.

I recommend you to use Bookmap for better entries
