If you're a break even trader or in the green slightly, it becomes a game of elimination not addition. Many traders master technical analysis but never take the next step because they don't focus their execution. If I was in that spot again, I'd be labeling every setup I take in my journaling platform and auditing performance by setup every month. I've been helping mentor a trader who told me his specialty was buying washouts, but when we looked at his stats, they were consistently his worst red PnL trades, while buying strength were his biggest green trades. Personally, I am not a good U&R trader, so I ONLY trade strength now. Curate what you see to match your strengths and let the market do the rest. Non-negotiable risk per trade -> Eliminate bad habits -> Full court press your strengths -> repeat weekly/monthly.
