It’s indisputable. Day trading isn’t a trade of skill, it’s all luck and chance. Drawing silly lines on a 1 day chart and calling it technical analysis isn’t going to help you predict price action, nor will it give you a competitive edge over other traders.

You pick a side and bet on it… if it goes your way, great. If your position blows up and goes to shit, you are NOT a bad trader, you were just an unlucky pony that specific day. Stick to swing trading if you don’t want to gamble or trade 0DTE SPY options if you’re feeling extra lucky.

No one can tell you which way the market will go in the short term. You are better off blind folding yourself and throwing a dart at the wall, because it’s anyones guess, I promise
