Kevin dude, you're a textbook example of someone projecting their guilt (born of bad trades) on others. You need to get a handle on your emotions before you continue investing, and continue your journey in life.  It's embarrassingly and glaringly obvious that you have an elementary level of emotional awareness. I'm not going to sit here and explain the merits of TA to you, because I've done it, and it obviously fell on deaf ears. TA is a mathematical process of elimination and probabilities, it's not a crystal ball. Go take a nap buddy.
