Bro, now days I am not doing the day trading (it is just an incident that since last 1 week I was facing some health issues, so was at home and for TP was doing day trading) else I am pure positional trader, and trade with 3-4 stocks only.
don't mix positional trade with day trade, for taking positions one can use monthly or weekly whereas for intraday one should chose atleast EOD.
a 5 minute (or any other TF) chart should be use to watch momentum only and not to enter in trade.
this is my simple thinking.

Atma, good job, having seen the trades and your comments !! If you would like to share this catching top/bottom for positional purpose ... that will be great. The problem in positional catching is that a) the signal comes too late so half the move is gone, and b) it does not come often. I have a list of 30-40 stocks to monitor and it gets to be too much work to identify what is ready to move. I went to hourly charts and that introduces the risk of gaps since the move of one day can be nullified the next. I am trying to work at 2-4 hour charts since the signals there would "likely" consider the market of probably 2 days. How would you do a positional trade (need not be for 3 weeks, could be for 3 days)?
