[Traditional Enneagram] What's my core type?

I have been into the enneagram for quite some time, but I never really understood it and didn't even really care much.
However, for a few weeks now I've become obsessed. I got typed as 5w4 (tritype 549), but it didn't resonate well after I gave it some thought.
Reading about types didn't help much too, since I can see myself in most of them. The only thing I'm sure is that my core type is of the head triad.
The most probable ones are 5 or 6. Now, according to the core fears, I am either a 5 or 3, but there are some things that don't fit well. While both 3 and 5 are competency types, when confronted with a problem, especially where my security is on the line, I think I act more like a 6, reactive, although this was more prominent when I was a kid. I also like to stay out of trouble at all costs. I'm pretty concerned with my security in general, but this could be from me being a sp/sx. Can a 5w6 sp look like a 6? Since, except what I mentioned, I identify more with the 5. I don't have the loyalty, authority, etc. issues of the 6. I tend to be neutral about authority, neither defiant nor totally obedient; I act whatever benefits me more.
I'm also indecisive (E6?), but then again, I'm a xNTP, so it could be from Ne.
Some other random facts that could be helpful: I used to have social anxiety and general anxiety. Until very recently I hated myself and wanted to be cooler and more admirable, but I got over it, and I'm feeling 100% better.
I apologize for the disorganized writing style and I hope you'll enlighten me with your answers!
I nearly forgot: I have one of those questionnaires, if someone minds analyzing, let me know.

You could be 4w5 I think? You are analyzing yourself hard and being obessesd with it like entering and entering to your inner world....boundary to other people and I feel you are cautious ......
You are focusing on yourself so much. However, it could be projection from my personality.
