Thread is getting really passive aggressive lol, people need to realise that any style of trading is acceptable if you're making money. Instinct can be just as useful as knowledge...
I find it is more useful to adapt than to stay rigid in your rules of technical or fundamental analysis. Since 2012 I've seen several TA patterns go from really unsuccessful to really successful and back again.. if you can measure what is currently 'in flavour' then you can trade the probabilities..
if you can't, but you can use gut instinct on announcement value and sector hype, use that.
if you can inherently evaluate market psychology and see where dips/gaps will occur and fill, use that.
Individuals make up the market such that it would be folly to assume there is one over-riding strategy when it is simply the combination of millions of individual strategies, all applied differently to varying degrees of success with varying goals and objectives at any one time.
The only mistake you can make is repeating a past one.
