That's exactly why I use the largest intraday interval and the shortest block of time required to make trades:
If I check the charts every 30 minutes (which I don't) and spend no more than 5 minutes in front of the charts then it will cost me 4 hours of my time.
If you have to sit in front of the charts all day then that's just another job
One of the best ways to manage your time is to get into the practice of setting alerts:

I think I was outsmarting myself again During my drive to work, I realized that trading the 30 minute chart doesn't mean watching the chart every 30 min. I can still spend watch the 4hr candles, but zoom in the 30min and see what's happening with those to determine that breakout I'm after. Things really can be made simple.
Yeah, the intraday charts are used to 'see into' the day and get a feel for what's going on inside of the D2 price ranges. . .
checking every 2-4 hours is perfectly OK.
