Hi Gold, you are right about anything can happen. It is a tough game. If what you say about Lifeline is true - and not an example, I am not sure whether the stress that goes with trading/investing is compatible with those emotional effects. I wish the best of luck to you - everyone that has been at this game for a long time has been through ups and downs and I think a positive psychology is needed to get through.
The charts do help - but I think it takes a long time and practical experience to be able to use them. Charts are not absolute as the tell tale market maker footprints tend to be left. Traders tend to do the same things - but one stock will behave differently technically to the other, although there are universal tenets.
Best of luck to you.
