Learning path. What tool are U using?

[padawan]

A. What technicals are you relying on for your trading?


B. What would you say is the best learning path from your experience. What would be the priority?

For me:
1. basic technical analysis (basic trend formation, H&S, etc)
2. money management (size & leverage)
3. Market Profile
4. Elliot Wave
5. Specific setups
6. tape reading
and then practice, practive practice

Let's share some knowledge.
Cheers.



PS: Nice meeting you all & glad to be part of this community.

Price and volume is what all traders need.

1. Read the price movement.
2. See the volume flow.

No indicators. No complicates. No secrets. No fancies.

Thanx.

Pure Patterns ,...

Trading Indian market since years, Patterns helped me more then any other indicator. Though Stoch u can use to find bottoms if u can combine it will with fibonacci possible reversal zones . But its very hectic for anybody to develop such tool.

But All the wway wether it was intraday/short term/long term , As being in technicals i can relay on only patterns ( from basics to advance ).

Not tried too many indicators yet as they lacks at times.
