Someone once said that to trade successfully, you must think like a fundamentalist but trade like a technician. Do you agree?

A:  Yes, I agree with it. Understanding the context and fundamentals, even when you trade the technicals can be helpful as long as you’re able to separate the two when needed. The problem is that many traders will have a bias toward one discipline over the other and will justify poor technicals with faith for the fundamentals. How traders handle these conflicts that arise from time to time and how flexible they are based on market conditions will make a huge difference.
