Your Trading style: Careful TA, or spray n pray/law of large numbers?

Curious, for day vs swing trading, what's your favorite style?

I use careful TA for swings, eg 2d highs, increasing range in uptrend etc...

For daytrading I do as many as 110+ roundtrips daily, it's all taking shots at whatever's in motion.

taking shots at whatever's in motion

My favorite style....is to make money....with careful precision, incision and understanding and patience and with leverage/options.
Kind of similar to the way I stare at porn....only .4% of the content will spark my desire, imagination, lust and time and action.

mine is arbitrage trading with martingale strategy....57 green days and 14 red days since 6/12/22 when i implemented this strategy.
 
After many years, I still cannot find a perfect method. I suppose there is no holy grail. Here are some methods that I find to have slightly more hit than miss.
1. Trend line. Why not moving average? The market is volatile, MA is more suitable for trending market. A tool has its season.
2. Leverage on the institutional investors. How? Gather information from the Edgar Form 13F-HR filings. This is not a sure fire method but it gives us lead albeit lagging lead(3 months lag). There about 6000 fund managers so just focus on a few good ones with good track record.
3. Scan for bottom. Bottoms give a general direction of market/sector/industry. Since bottom is about timing and not price, it's a good timing tool. A stationary bottom vs moving bottom help in our long/short trading strategy.
