🧰 Tools Tuesday — Turn Common Indicators into a Trading System That Works
📌 Quick Summary
A trading system isn’t a robot or a shortcut — it’s a logical process you design or adapt to make decisions clearly.
It helps you focus on analysis, not emotions like fear or greed.
Every trader should understand this concept — and use it to build their own system that actually works.
🔍 Deeper Insight
• The market is full of signals — but without structure, fear and greed will control your trades.
You might see a bullish setup… but hesitate. Or worse, jump in based on hope, not logic.
📢 That’s why we use indicators — to remove emotion and focus on facts.
But there’s no single indicator that gives you everything.
Just like gardening, you need different tools for digging, watering, trimming — combining them gives results.
Trading is the same. You combine indicators into a clear process.
🌔 That’s where a system comes in.
✔️ Indicators → form a strategy
✔️ Strategies → become your system
✔️ A system → gives you confidence and discipline
🌔 A good example is the “Triple Screen Trading System” by Alexander Elder.
It uses three parts, each with a few free indicators.
Each part confirms the other, so you don’t rely on just one signal.
To build something like this, you only need to understand the tools — and adapt the method to your real-life trading.
