I had some chop trades this morning on the 610 tick chart . Sometimes, I prefer the longer 2000 tick charts when the market gets choppy to help identify the overall trend better.
Can you help answer these questions

The win/loss ratio is ok but some of the choppy days were not that easy.

After an account review, I see that I need fewer trades with larger targets to overcome the fees and commissions. I am working on better targets.

Here is my trade for the day. There are certain times of the day when the price reverses. I drew my trend line from around 6 am.
