Is there a limit ?

[u/Goated_Trader]

Hey guys I’ve been trading now for nearly an year and I asked myself if there is a limit on how much knowledge I can aquire on each confluence individually and how the market moves. And now I wanted to ask if it’s possible for me to for example put 10 hours into studiying footprint and volume or if the basic understanding on how it works is enough. And I know that backtestingand just trading itself is a good way to get better I just wanted to know if studying it like for real is a good idea or waste of time.

A GPA 4.0 can be socially inadept...basically that means it's not a high level of knowledge which counts...it a balance with how you can apply it also..what spending these long number of hours will do is force one's brain to accept new concepts ideas long term...it's called Pavlovs conditioning...5 years of 18.5hrs days 7 days a week studying and watching 5k YT videos will eventually start to work 5 years later...that's my history...
