what kinds of patterns are you referring to?

you could start by just looking 2 or 3, and acquire familiarity.
then add new patterns 1 by 1.

dont try to look for all the patterns in one go as a beginner, you will get confused and frustrated.

Search engines really are your best friend. Whatever words pop into your head, write them down then search at leisure.

the best way to learn about patterns is to read about them, find them in past charts, and look for them in live charts in many timeframes, every single day or as much as you can, for at least 1 to 5 years.

I think the best way to learn about patterns is to not attempt to learn about them.
