Good for you on recognizing both. Indicators are fool's gold, and 1 minute chart trading have a heavy burden of commissions, slippage, taxes, and drain on the trader's psyche. Trading longer is the way to go.

Just because you have not figured out how to be profitable using indicators does not mean they are "fools gold." I use this fools gold to make real gold daily.

Technical analysis exists for a reason, no different than instruments on an aircraft; you may know what the vertical speed indicator does, but it does not mean you can set a plane down safely in a storm. TA is the same thing.

Hi wiesman02,

I'm excited to see you come a long way in less than a year. I feel like I'm in a pretty similar situation to yours 9 months ago. I'm 24, just quit my job as a research analyst. Money was pretty good for my age but I just couldn't stand the corporate BS anymore after working a year. I'm currently sim trading nq and es for about 2 months using AHG. We'll see if I'll overcome the learning curve in the next 6 months.

Cheers

JW

Let me see how you speak my language. Not all of the people that participate in this forum are from US and A and second I really don`t think I care about spelling since this is not a spelling forum. Not STFU and stop making a fool of yourself cock.....

Gap analyses are to be ignored in trading. They fall under the heading of too much information. Thank you for your time.
