If you're learning to trade without a mentor, this is the trap:

You watch a video. It feels like progress. You screenshot a setup. You switch markets. You add another indicator. Two weeks later you still don't have a process you could explain to a friend in 30 seconds.

That's not studying. That's collecting.

The fix is boring:

• Pick one market.

• Mark a range you can defend.

• Write three rules you will not break this week.

• Size so a full stop doesn't end the experiment.

• Repeat the same setup until it's ugly and familiar.

You don't need 40 strategies. You need one you can actually run on a Tuesday when nothing is happening.

If you can't teach the setup, you can't trade it. Start there.
