I examine a YouTube comment and identify several key red flags that experienced traders should be aware of to refine their strategies effectively. First, I highlight the pitfalls of over-reliance on newly discovered indicators, which often lead to misguided optimism. All indicators are derived from fundamental market data such as price action and volume, making the discovery of a genuinely novel indicator improbable. Next, I challenge the unrealistic expectation of achieving a 100% win rate, explaining that such claims are typically indicative of flawed analysis or statistical misinterpretation. Lastly, I underscore the necessity of a substantial sample size and adequate time frame to validate any trading strategy, cautioning against premature conclusions based on limited data. By focusing on these red flags, traders can develop more robust and realistic strategies, ultimately enhancing their trading performance and avoiding the disappointment of unmet expectations.
