90908It is quite apparent that you are very uncertain about which sort of trader you wish to be, what methods you want to use and in the event that you'll require a job too.
I recommend that you obtain a job which can provide continuous income for the upcoming few years. At precisely the same time you build a trading methodology.
Trading for a living is in a different level than trading part time, you'll have bills to pay and the strain will most likely be too much, that is until you have come to be a accomplished part time trader. Trading component time, means that should you f%$^ up it wont be the end of the planet and you won't be forced to trade in order to cover your own way.
You want to choose which type of trader you are, System, EA, Price action, etc..
When you've got work, day trading will likely be out, therefore you might just be able to trade end daily, and possibly odd times through the day. So in the event that you go down the price action/classic TA route, bigger time frames will likely be your only wager, daily/4hr charts etc..
A the moment I trade PA on daily and 4hr charts (also working on quicker time frames on demo)- my main egy is to wait for a essential level to be broken and retested. On the retest I View for verifying PA, i.e. candlestick patterns, Pin pubs, engulfing bars among others.
For me personally price action is the only way I have found that gives me a notion of what is happening in the markets, all of systems and EA's have done will give me a sore head. I'm not hugely profitable, but on the whole I am around the last year and a half, not a thousand percent by any means, but I enjoy it and I love the game itself.
I'm not here to state PA is what you should follow, but you will need to begin ruling out the methods you clearly don't want to follow and begin focusing on the ones you do.
At the end of the day, should you fail you fail, just be sure to do the best you can.
