the crisis of intuitive technical analysis

Why do classic chart patterns lead to systematic losses?

Drawing horizontal support lines off local extremes on a bare chart ignores market physics. Price is moved by real money volume — not geometric shapes. Without analyzing liquidity distribution, intraday traders make three systematic mistakes:

{items.map((it, i) => (
SITUATION0{i + 1}

{it.title}

On the chart

{it.what}

Technical cause

{it.why}
