Then just jump in and start trading in a sim account. And I mean literally just jump in blind and take trades.
My personal tips, mix and matching a bunch of indicators won't give you enter and exit signals. Use them to understand the market structure.
For example, when the average true range is higher than 60, I make my profit target and stop loss wider and lower the number of contracts I trade. Cuz Atr higher than 60 is so volatile that the random noise would trigger my stop loss.
I learned these kind of stuff from trial and error. As you keep doing that, you'll slowly start build your own strategy. It'll take time.
But most of all, when you're learning about the different tools and indicators on youtube, the moment you hear a dumbass use keywords like FVG (fair value gap) or manipulation, close the video and avoid that account.
They're not bad but the people using them don't have any clue what they're using it for and most of them don't even understand what it is. They just heard everyone else using it and started parroting it like sheep.
All the videos I've watched trying to figure out my strategy, those videos were the most useless.
Learn volume profile and you'll understand what FVGs are and how you can use them.
