Yep,,
As for my interest in TA.. Only about 30 years of it, 50 books, ASIC endorsed courses.. Ha ha !
It ain't perfect, but I'm always looking for an edge to improve my hit/miss and risk/reward ratios !!
Long enough to know nothing is 100% ..
I find you can settle in to a system that kind of works for you (especially in a LT uptrend) ,, and lose yourself in a little bubble for a while,... so folks like you that challenge me is good..
I found in a generally booming market , I can kill a pig.. (the public purse was a beneficiary last year)
But in a sideways market or downtrend , I'm looking for every advantage I can find!
(I try not to short down trends unless it's a bleedingly obvious move and I have a convenient medium - as I was taught the Overall Long Long term trend is up,, so be careful !)
