You could even ask: Indicator or no indicator, as less is often more.

Reading a book like Murphy's Technical Analysis could be a good start.

Do not start trading until you are proficient in reading price action alone.


Chart Analysis - ChartSchool - StockCharts.com


^^^^ Go there and start at the top and DO NOT TRADE until you know "The Basics" and "Candlesticks", you can forget charting styles and tools.

I am new in town. Need help selecting food to use for eating.
What types, how much?

That would be quite a similar question. Nobody will ever be able to answer it.

I recom 'all you can eat' buffet. No need to select you can have them all for 1 low price.

For how long will I survive that diet?
