Lesson 4 of 4
Intro to Indicators
Indicators are calculations plotted on your chart to help interpret price. A few staples:
- Moving Average (MA) — smooths price to reveal the trend.
- RSI — flags when a market may be overbought or oversold.
- MACD — gauges momentum and trend shifts.
Use them wisely
Indicators are derived from price, so they lag it. They work best as confirmation alongside support/resistance and trend analysis — not as standalone buy/sell signals.
