How to use this library well.

Start small

Learn a few patterns from each family first. Don't try to memorize every page in one pass.

Read location

The same candle means something different at support, at resistance, or in the middle of a range.

Practice blind

Pattern knowledge becomes skill only when you have to commit before the outcome is visible.
