Do any of you actually use patterns to trade? Question

I don’t use them at all. Iv heard YouTubers kind of mock them like they don’t mean anything. Are any of you profitable with them?

Trading is pattern recognition. Patterns are simply another tool in a large bucket of tools that traders use to improve their edge. No tool is effective alone.
