noticed a pattern with new traders (including me earlier). the first instinct is always to add more indicators. rsi, macd, ema, vwap, supertrend, all on one chart. it *feels* like more confirmation. in reality, it’s just more noise saying the same thing in different ways. most losing trades i’ve seen weren’t because the indicator was wrong. they were because there was no plan for risk, size, or exit. indicators don’t give you an edge by themselves. they just describe price in different languages.
wdyt? did simplifying your charts actually improve your trading?
