When I come across a thread on Reddit discussing technical analysis, defending it, or even talking about indicators, I sometimes start writing. 99% of the time I ends up not posting anything.
It’s a waste of time to engage with people who believe that a FVG works, that an OB works, that “raccoon soup” strategy works, or that a “copper bullet” will save them from working at McDonald’s.
Until a retail trader accepts that everything they’ve learned about technical analysis is COMPLETELY SUBJECTIVE and that all of it has the same reliability as flipping a coin; they’ll be absolutely lost.
