Just from my own journey in trading and personal experience throughout the years.
As many of you, I have bought countless of indicators and systems. I have tried countless of strategies and bots. I have spent thousands and thousands of dollars attending to trading classes and courses. I have had personal trading coaches and so called "gurus". I have watched millions of anything related to trading on YouTube. I have read countless of articles related to trading...all over the place.
Besides the money I have spent, the amount of precious times I have wasted, also the stress and the sheer pain of feeling defeated.
At some points in time, I even told myself, maybe this trading thing ain't for me. I wasn't cut out for it.
Yet, in the end. Without giving up. I have found myself going back to the most basic thing of all and it certainly costs me nothing in return.
Support and Resistance, Supply and Demand and a simple Trendline and with just 1 simple strategy that I still, have been using every single day trading 5 to 10 contracts on ES.
The infamous ORB, open range breakout, on a 15 minute time frame.
Back then of course, I would have to draw vertical and horizon lines on my chart to map out the range.
Now a day, everything gets so easy and convenient. We have plenty of free indicators out there that would draw the range out for us. Plus, we can also put in the time range we need the ORB to start and end.
I humbly suggest you to take 1 step back and just to make life and trading as simple as much as possible.
Nothing beats the leading indicators. Everything else, shall lag.
