The success of a trader depends on the 9 inches between the ears.

The hard part is in understanding your psychology, because it’s true that the nine inches between your ears will determine your success as a trader.If knowledge is the main reason why most traders fail, then psychology is the second major reason.

Indicators are useless , it is what is between the ears that dictates ,in the heat of the moment , when emotions are controlling your actions.

I really don't use indicators .

If I had said 15 inches , you would have replied at an instant , testosterone and power under the belt is what drives many emotions.

Couldn't agree more! It's all about the mindset. Success in trading is really about how you think and handle your emotions. It's not just about knowing stuff, but also about staying cool and sticking to your plan under stress.
