I don't think its fair to lable people because he spent time looking to learn only to be sold snake oil. We all come to this knowing very little and search to educate ourselves. Unfortunately the vast majority of information out there is garbage but we don't know that when we get started. It's also not easy enough to say "you're a member here you have the info you need to be successful."

It sounds to me like you need to take a step back. Take a break and when you come back, come with the real understanding that there is no holy grail. Trading is difficult, it requires discretion, and it's not totally mechanical. Find a group of educators selling an education not a product. Dedicate yourself to learning your market, record your screen so you can watch important areas again. Record your trades to hold yourself accountable. Do not trade until you can be consistently profitable on paper, and keep it simple.
