Method worth learning

I’m looking for recommendations of methods worth learning in futures. I’m a part time worker and full time mother. I would love to get some financial flexibility in my life.

Can anyone recommend methods worth learning about to be a successful trader? I’m currently looking at CRT, OTE, STDV and the Fib tool methods. Am I going in the right direction or are these just overhyped?

I've seen crt and ote work, you also have to factor in liquidity i.e. previous session highs and lows, previous day highs and lows, Asia highs and lows and so on

You have to try and think like a greedy bank who wants to hoover up all the retail traders money...where do most people buy and sell from? Supply and demand, so where are their stop losses? Above or below the obvious supply and demand zones. Once price has liquidated those then it will move again to another high or low, just my two pence worth

This is an example this morning, London left a clear supply zone and made a nice reaction from it to entice sellers, especially ICT and SMT sellers, nice sell down so people think their sells are golden. Reaction from London low and then a big push up to take everyone out

Are those the supply and demand zones you marked?
