It really isn't that simple. The indicators have to be tied to your mindset. Investor or trader? days? weeks? months? In general any chart should have a 8, 21, and 89 EMA for a good view of trends. A macd(13,34,89) for intermediate view using EMAs. And a CCI(13) or CCI(40). Now you are better off then stumbling around with just funnymentals and stock topics/chat rooms/brokers. But like anything you get out of it what you put into it. I am sure if you watch a pro baseball hitter for a few hours, you would get general idea of batting. But you have got to practice and it isn't easy or everyone could do it. This Bull has made things look easy, it won't always be that way. If you are trading/investing hard earned money in market, everyone needs to learn by study and practice how to protect and increase it.
