Its just gotta fit you or you learn to live with it.
Price action trading means that you trade based on how price reacts on certain levels you are watching, the way the candle looks, the way the line chart slopes, the overall formations of patterns, so in one way or another we all trade price action. Reading these charts the right way comes from experience and it is very hard to teach no matter how much somebody tries to convince you that their way is better. If you like rsi, macd, stochs just get good at it, it will work once you spent enough time in the market to read those accurately along with price. If you hate much information and clutter, strip your charts and just watch price month after month what it does and how it repeats. If you like ma's just get good with those, or trendlines or elliot waves, whatever it is, stick with what gives you that "wow man, i really like trading like this; it fits my way, my style, my approach". You might take losing trades and keeping those under control has little to do with your strategy,< is mostly money management and emotions>; but eventually you will find that thing that you like and you will develop around it. I personally like clean charts where i can clearly see the candles and how price bounces around and i found that to fit me the best. I use a few ma's for price value but i dont plot them on the same chart thats clean; i found that to be better for my eyes. However you do it be patient and just give yourself time to learn. I dont teach anybody what to do but if you like clean price action thats what we do and if you think it can help you give it a try and might be your thing as well. I am pretty busy trading so i dont write endless articles on our site or courses; i dont argue with anyone as charts speak for themselves and the ones we post might help you see the market from another perspective and in the end there is always the choice of taking the other side of the market if you dont agree with the approach. By the way, this is mostly for new traders that are still confused and bounce around, experienced traders know the drill and their systems rock i am sure.

i like how you emphasize that the system you choose doesn t really matter, its the energy you put into the method that matters.
