I use bollingers band
MACD
Chop index
Then base my trade on how long it tops or bottoms so if it took a week i keep my tpsl order open for a week,
But I just got burnred on a tpsl order because one 5 min candle dropped down 5% then went up 6% in 5 min triggering my SL where if there was a buffer that wouldnt happen. So until I can fix that I dont be big amounts.
And im trying to find a volatility line graph and other charts but some are backwards from others and some dont make sense, I trade small amount a few hundred so it like paper trading but , when paper trading you have no emotions so you take big risks and dont care about losses. But when I lose 10$ I get upset and try to fix it.
So i was big into bit coins 10 years ago but I lost the money so I have about 1000$ to play with.
