What would be the best strategy for someone with a full-time job? Are there specific timeframes, indicators, or automation tools you’d recommend?

have a look at "tactical asset allocation" and also combine that with various trend following strategies but you cant go far wrong with Asset Allocation
A book called Dual Momentum, or look at sites such as allocatesmartly.com
as for timeframes, mostly you'll find monthly, but you can still easily make it work with weekly timeframes
the only automation i use is for backtesting, otherwise if you have a good list of ETFs you'll not need any automation

Hi! Maybe look into swing trading using daily charts, set price alerts or conditional orders for easier management, but definitely research carefully first!

Consider buy and hold, reinvest dividends, choose one of the indices that is designed to go up, S&P500, Dow, FTSE, NASDAQ, you get the idea.

I'll check out Dual Momentum and Allocatesmartly. Weekly sounds doable with my schedule.

Wouldn't daily charts and swing trading be too hands-on for someone with limited screen time? Was thinking weekly timeframes might be more realistic.

Makes sense for simplicity, but do you think buy and hold still offers a good risk-adjusted return for someone starting now, especially with market valuations where they are?
