Trading is not complicated. Charts will never tell you the future, I only use them to find lows to buy and when I am in profit somewhere and see an opportunity elsewhere, I make that shuffle. Follow this simple strategy, don’t get caught up being in too much of a rush (over leveraged or putting too much pressure on yourself to earn probably) and end up losing to fees. With a lower time preference than most and discipline, I expect you will be doing a lot of winning 🏆 Good luck 🤞🏻

I spent years studying technical analysis only to realize that most of it is just hoodoo voodoo nonsense. All you have to do is mark highs and lows on the chart and understand the continuous auction process and the mentality of the other participants in that auction process.
Also there's no replacement for screen time. The more hours you've spent watching a specific market move, the more you can rely on experience.
Then you didn't learn TA. This post from my LinkedIn Nov 2022. I gave bullish guidance 23 times since.
As soon as we hit $70k, I warned of the potential top (including here on Nostr, where a bunch of coders started crying).
I've been tracking that potential top's confirmation status ever since.
So ya, TA works. It works very well.
No, most TA is just overcomplicating the simple. Price action is the culmination of millions of individual human decisions. When you understand the auction process and human behavior, you don't need TA.
