When I began, I overloaded my charts with every indicator imaginable: RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands—you name it. I thought more indicators = better trades.
Big mistake.
Indicators lag. They don’t predict—they confirm. I kept chasing signals and losing because I was reacting to numbers, not the market.
Then I tried a simple experiment: trade with price action first, then use one indicator to confirm. Suddenly, trades felt cleaner, entries made more sense, and I was less stressed.
The lesson? Indicators are helpful tools, but they shouldn’t run your trades. The real insight comes from observing price and understanding why it moves.
