Don’t fall into the complexity trap. Some participants buy expensive chart systems to test, back-test, and optimize complex trading systems. While this process works well with specific tactics, it often reflects an inability to take personal responsibility for one’s results. The best opportunities always sit right under the trader’s nose. They set up now the same way they did 50 years ago and will likely book profits for our grandchildren in another 50 years.
