Did you know that ancient traders purely used fundamental analysis to analyze where the market will move. Traders who use fundamental aspects such as various conditions, instruments, and policies of the government or the central bank in establishing market balance conditions are known as "fundamentalists". Generally, fundamentalists will pay attention to economic indicators such as Gross Domestic Product, Unemployment Rate, Salary Increase, Retail Sales, Inflation Rate, and others.Until the late 1970s, the use of technical analysis was still considered mystical. In the early 1980s, traders began using technical indicators in their analysis. The reason for this transfer is primarily money.

Fundamental analysis is considered to be less effective in making money unless it is used for investment in the long run. According to Mark Douglas in his book "Trading In The Zone", it is not the result of economic indicators of a country that drives market prices, but it is the expectations, expectations, and actions of market players that can drive prices. With a volatile market situation, pure fundamentalists find it difficult to determine when it's time to enter, exit, or maintain a position in the market.
If you ask is there a weakness in technical analysis? Yes, there are also gaps in technical analysis. The gap is between things that a trader understands about the market, and the ability of a trader to make that knowledge an opportunity.

There is a big difference between predicting something will happen in the market and reality about whether we really enter and make money in that market. This gap is called Psychological Gap.
Have you ever seen a chart, then it occurred to this market to rise, but didn't have the courage because you had suffered losses in a row before? Then find the market really moves according to initial estimates. Yes, this is what makes trading with technical analysis difficult

Forex trading is very complex, besides technical and fundamental, there is still market sentiment, risk management and trading psychology, discipline and so on.

I myself often experience it, it's called doubt or fear of entering the market. Doubt or fear will cause us to miss an important moment entry so that we don't get profit, it often makes us regret :-[

of course not only technical analysis and fundamental analysis.
trading more than that, it also requires patience, management, psychologists etc.
so it's not easy to trade in need of consistent learning.

All aspects that you mentioned are all important, indeed trading and doing analysis is not that simple but must use psychology and also the right and fast decision making.

The technicalists base their analysis on the history of price movements. Basically, these technicalists believe that the history of price movements above the chart will repeat itself; and in something that looks random, certain patterns are hidden which can be used to understand what is and will happen in the movement of the chart.

Market sentiment is more accurate as long as you can analyze market sentiment properly.

Besides technical and fundamental, there is one more good analysis, namely market sentiment, so trading is not always only related to technical and fundamental.

There is a lot to learn in the forex business, of course not only technical and fundamental, there is also money management etc.
For that, don't ever be satisfied with the knowledge you have, keep learning because the forex business requires a lot of knowledge.
