Where did you see my rude comments, You were asking for straight forward short cut technique, hence I have answered.
Actually this is a duplicate thread of @insaneike.
@logicgate has already suggested some best books and best courses. Have you tried ?. At least did you do back testing?. I know few members in a trading forum are using only the tradeguider book's learning and trading with HLC charts and they are making hell a lot of money on futures trading. Problem here is every one wants to learn very quick and start making money tomorrow.
@borsaman has already shared precious gems here, but every one is still asking for more. (Lucky to have him here, I have spend lakhs for the courses which he shared here)
What I learned from the materials shared here
How to draw proper trend line - Adam grimes course
More precise Fibonacci - BCFX course (Helped me to filter false swings)
SnD - From Simon kloot course
Price Action - Al brooks (Still learning, He is a PA scientist)
Fake break Out - From ICT
Market turning points from FF TMA strategy thread by George
Fractals and divergence - EW ultimate
And few more
You don't need to learn all. Just pick what is matching with your strategy
Set a draw down limit (I set mine as 4% max draw down)
I have started with very low risk
I was risking only 0.10% for 1 year (I can lose 40 trades for my max draw down list)
When I started winning I have increased my risk to 0.20%
Now I am trading with 0.40% risk per trade (I haven't lose 10 consecutive trades for the last one year)
I am happy with what I am earning and as my draw down is low, I have got some funding to trade now.
I am using Edgewonk for my trade journals and I really like it (Not marketing here)
