The absolute best trading indicator in the world is your gut.
Your intuition only becomes finely tuned after a lot of trials and errors.
Let me explain...
As traders, intuition is how we make decisions without conscious thought.
In other words, the more you trade, the more accurate your intuition gets.
Intuition is no different from muscle memory.
...and you don't have to think or overthink how to do something.
Your intuition is familiar with how this pattern (likely) plays out.
Way more efficient. Right?
The more observant you are, the higher quality your memories will be.
The higher the quality of the memory, the more informed your intuition will be.
You always work within a framework...
It means that with proper focus, education, and TIME — your gut feelings will become incredibly accurate.
The absolute best traders don't think so much... they just execute.

The green line is unattainable realistically, however, missing volatile times during corrections yields better performance than buy and hold and we can aim for the green line.
Investors usually only show the gray and red results.

There are many strategies for investing/trading in the stock market operating within different timeframes and with different objectives.
That is of course what creates a market and opportunity. Timing the market may not be what works for you or what fits your goals/lifestyle.
However, everyone involved in the market is here to make money over time and corrections can cause huge drawdowns in the high alpha names negating incredible performance during strong market uptrends.
