Chart duration

I have learnt reading technical charts but confused about which duration chart to read for taking trades. If i wish to trade intraday for an hour or for the whole day or say take a position for a few days … should i be looking at 1 min chart , 5 min chart or hourly chart … Please point me to the relevant thread /material if it has already been discussed or answered.

1 min and 2min chart is full of noises. Will lead to error in judgement.

5 min or 15 min is good for intraday
