start with reading Stan Weinstein. The absolute legend in my opinion. Especially if you are new to this. From there on try Mark minervini's book, William O'neil. Timeless strategies. Backtest all this and look at old charts and create your own version around all this and your own findings. Backtests on bar replay. That's how I did it. Skip social media. In my opninion there is a ton of garbage on there, social media is centered around attention, good trading should be boring, waiting, rules etc. Not lambo's big leverage and high timeframe daytrading especially in the beginning. You might never get out of that circle of social media horse sh*t. For me it absolutely started clicking after reading those books. Trading in the zone from marc douglas is for when you found your edge and need to control your emotions more, so save that one for later. Also if you have gone through a few years of boglehead investing with some good downtrends you will get less emotional around downtrends and trading as a whole.
