Your dream recall seems excellent, Princessflare, but don't take it for granted. I suggest that you record your dreams in your journal as quickly as possible (I also suggest that you record your dreams by writing them down, on paper, instead of typing them into your phone. I say this because there is something about the act of physically writing your dream down that makes them more likely to enter your long-term memory).
But to your OP: Although the advice that you've been given here is excellent, you might consider this thought, which might not be shared much in the forums:
Dreamsigns do not make you lucid, ever.
They confirm lucidity, sure, and definitely amplify it after you do a RC, but in order to recognize a dreamsign in a dream (or anything "strange," for that matter, because in NLD's pretty much nothing is ever strange)
you must already be at least slightly aware that you are dreaming (aka, you're already lucid). If you are not lucid in a dream, nothing is ever strange, and dreamsigns are merely obvious and unsurprising aspects of the dream. Not only that, if you are not lucid at all you can have dreams
about spotting dreamsigns, and then
about being lucid, without ever actually being truly aware that you are dreaming. Oh, and feel free to replace the word "dreamsign" with "Reality Check," because the same goes for RC's.
However, like RC's, dreamsigns are a handy tool for successful LD'ing, but more thanks to the help they provide to develop your lucid mindset during daywork than anything they do when you are asleep and dreaming. And that mindset, that "knowing" you will be aware of your Self during a dream, is the thing that makes you lucid during the dream... the rest, including all those techniques, are only aids, and not solutions.
As long as I'm here:
As long as you are not working hard on unhelpful tasks (like
ADA, in my opinion), and you are not driving yourself into some sort of neurotic state from overwork, I really don't think you can put too much time or effort into becoming consistently lucid. Just be sure that you are focusing more on developing your lucid mindset than you are on the minutiae of techniques. Oh, and because I'm me, don't forget the
fundamentals (waking-life self-awareness,
memory, and expectation/intention)!
