Without the correct premise no matter how much you work or how much you analyze you're not going to be successful. Without the correct philosophy on how markets move to begin with, forget it. It's not why they move, but how they move. It really is science, motion. If you have an open mind, it's all there right in front of you. The cycles, the patterns, the repetition...markets are fractal in nature and therefore follow natural laws; physics. But do not make the mistake of thinking market movement is predetermined. Determine which way the majority of patterns are aligned now, and trade in that direction today. That is such valuable information, a secret really.
Trading is a risky endeavor and not suitable for all investors.
