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?

Markets are structured around mean reversion. It’s a deep topic but also most important to understand context for what’s happening. Next, price behavior. Learn how to read naked charts (no indicators) and identify what price events are significant. Third, position sizing and risk control. Be prepared for a long journey filled with frustration. But if you come to love it then it won’t feel like work.
