When I first entered the circle in 2019, I thought that losses were due to poor skills, so I frantically learned various indicators (Elliott Wave Theory, Bollinger Bands, candlestick charts, Gann Theory...). As a result, the more I learned, the more confused I became—indicators clashing, conflicting views, and I didn't know how to use them at all.
