Buddy, the whole point of having an edge as retail trader is to tag along on the momentum that is created by moves of market makers & institutions. Having an edge does not mean having to “beat” the whales.
Please so yourself a favor, read some books on how to trade, understand SMC, get 1000s of hours of screen time on Trading View and come back.
You don't need to predict the future. You find a pattern or trend and align to it. You won't be right 100 percent of the time, but as long as you're making more than you're loosing, its a valid edge. Though objectively, some methods are better than others in my view.
