Why Overcomplicating Trading Keeps You Poor

Описание: If you have more than 5 things on your trading chart right now, I can tell you exactly why you're not making money. You're drowning in complexity and calling it preparation. Every indicator you add is pushing you further from profitability, not closer.

I watched a trader with 47 indicators on his chart. Not exaggerating—47 different things. Moving averages, oscillators, Fibonacci grids, volume profiles. After 3 years, he was still break even. Not because he didn't understand markets. Because he'd made trading so complicated he couldn't execute consistently.

Here's the trap: complexity feels like sophistication. It feels like you're taking trading seriously. But complexity is actually procrastination disguised as preparation. You're avoiding the scary part—executing trades—by adding more analysis.

What You'll Learn:
How the complexity trap works (and why you got stuck), the psychological trick making you add instead of subtract, what complexity actually costs you (decision paralysis, confidence loss), what professional traders actually do (hint: incredibly simple systems), the simplification process that transformed my trading, and my exact 3-element system (price structure, volume, context).

The Truth: Elite firms like Jane Street and SMB Capital use incredibly simple systems. They look at price and volume. That's basically it. Edge doesn't come from complexity—it comes from executing simple strategies consistently.

Action Step: Delete 90% of what's on your chart. Keep price, maybe one moving average, volume. Trade that for one week. If you can't describe your strategy in one sentence, it's too complex.
