I read that book "A Complete Guide to Volume Price Analysis" by Anna Coulling. Awesome book You don't understand candlesticks -volume it's not needed in any market ... Price and momentum (skipping Rock theory)always lead ... Indicators support price not lead .. Price always leads even over volume
TA never worked and never will work.. It is merely an ancient attempt to apply structure to a chaotic system.
Just give up because you are a small trader. If you decide not to give up, this is what will happen to you you will keep reloading your account until you are dead broke. Trading and Risk Disclaimer More than 90% of small traders lose! They just lose!!
The greater account, the more you lose! I think the money management is more important than the TA. Try to look at this side of trading too...
One awesome and very wealthy trader once said "you have to think way out of the box, you have to live way out of the box - extraordinary returns takes extraordinary risk. I avoid the crowd, when volatility constricts that is when I am active - when volatility expands I am unwinding profits into it. There are amazing opportunities if you look for them, you have to have a lot of guts to do what the crowd is unwilling to do".
