Anything under H4 is scalping for me, the longer TF chart is more like investing not gambling especially for something like the dow which I trade the daily chart gives much better results with less broker commissions and stays out of the spikes which will whipsaw you to death.
Honestly have you ever seen a whipsaw spike on a daily chart?
One of my broker's is an ex cbot floor staff commodoties trader, specializing in futures options, who manages million in accounts per year, and he told me off the record that he never even looks at a chart under D1.
great post!

i will trade swing/position when i have fat accounts...oh with no SL
