DislikedThat's what I thought originally, too.
Later on I realized I was simply trying to see setups everywhere and taking anything anywhere. It took me a while to realize that just because a bar looks like something mentioned here doesn't make it a good setup.
I think what is crucial is figuring out what factors contribute to setups that worked out and then looking for them in the here and now.
Support and resistance plays a big role imho.
That and not forcing setups onto charts when things aren't as crystal clear as they can get / most ideal. If I had a pip for every neutral bar that's been called a pin bar or every traffic clustered PB or every "4h IB" etc pp...
Well you won't get good at anything (sports, art, music, anything in life) if you throw in the towel after a short while already
The most detrimental thing for me was to keep looking, trying, stopping, moving on, repeating the same system hopping over and again. Leads nowhere.Ignored
