Hello there,

My best combination is;

• Bollinger Bands
• MACD
• RSI

and what is your long, flat, short signal?
Sell when RSI and Bollinger showing overbought? But I think MACD does not show anything at the same time? So how to combine them?

[Tytanowy Janusz]

My best combination is:

- news reaction

• if no reaction to good news means that investors are to scared to put money even if good news is on) - bed time to buy
• if good news are mooning and bad news dont influence market - investors are very confident - good time to buy

- price - just buy the fking deep, dont buy on the top when price is going up like crazy. I wont buy on the moon hoping to reach mars beacause on 5 min/10min/1h/4h/12h any other h chart there is buy signal on bolinger rsi or any other poo poo.
-upcoming news
-finding whale on asset (when your indicators are giving buy and price is droping you will say TA is not alwis right or you will change indicator or post here "what are you best indicators". I would know that TA lovers demand was used to exit trade by whale (at liest with part of his capital) and ill know that perhaps he has much more to dump on indicators lovers). Beacause whale wont exit coin on downtred because noone will buy from them. They need to exit when there is buy oportunity for others.

You may earn on macd or rsi on bull market. But on bull market even blind monkey would earn. Bear market will crash all trades opened with those indicators.

I feel free to use Moving Average 50+20 and Fibonacci retracement + RSI. I know every trader use their indicators depending on their trading strategy so it's not good to say that my indicators are perfect for all. So study and use those indicators which you feel good to apply.

[Ilegendph]

Right now Im using the following:

1.Stochastic RSI
2.Bollinger Band
3.MACD

My first choice is always the stochastic rsi because its a combination of RSI( Relative Strength Index), Rate of change and Stochastic. It gives the user the oversold and overbought prices which I believe profitable in trading. And also, because of these, trader can also predict the 2 step away price of an asset.

I use bollinger band to watch for a squeeze and I confirm it using MACD.

I think my best indicator combination is using Stochastic RSI and Bollinger Bands. I got some good profit while using this 2 indicators. While I'm using these two, I'm confirming my trade using MACD. In any way, these indicators will not guarantee you profit because they are just indicators although it can increase your chances in getting profit.

Its very funny for me. Almost every TA lover say something similar. I use bla bla bla, but it works for me and perhaps wont work for you. Its money making not mast***ating in the shower. If indicators works, they should work for everyone ... ergo ... it should not work for anyone because on market it is impossible for everyone to earn. If you are earning using them its not because of them. Its because beafore using them you are filtrating manny things like: choising good coins/ moment (bear/bull market) /enviroment/ global news what gives you advantage over market and more than 50% chance (lets say 70%) and it makes you earn. Those indicators are boosting those 70% to 75% or even burning 5% to 65% but its still earning. And not made by indicators. In the end of your trading expirience and work you are adding them and say that you are earning on them. Others may not. May not because they did filtrating not as good as you.

By filtrating entry point i mean even dont fomo, dont buy shitcoins (even if there is great macd entry) etc.

Wow, I never thought there should be someone who uses the same like me. Those indicators are the best a it gave me a lot of profit somehow.

The best indicators are basically your timeframes, especially the weekly and the daily.

You need to make trades based on those higher timeframes if you want to succeed ever in trading.

The reason why everybody gets rekted on Bitmex is because they are trading the M1 charts and get liquidated by whales.

As for an indicator, I would say they are all lagging indicators and don't always work. But Moving averages, RSI and fibo is sometimes helpful.

However sometimes you don't need all that. Sometimes a simple Support and Resistance line is more than adequate.

Your post is not completed, time setting, percentage stop loss and take profit, money management calculation should included. Indicator ( even combination from many ) can't stay alone because they only sign to start/ end activity and need support from data ( number ). Until now I only use MACD and MA, time frame long ( day - week - month ) and martiangle money management. Not always works but can grow up my capital and raise my skill slowly but sure.

For me default indicator combinations are not enough. I use some customized indicators with default ones in 4 hour time span.

Using  some indicator to trade crypto is way to determine support and resistance area but technical analysis is not accurate in crypto trading.  We should also learn more about fundamental  analysis. And i think good combination of indicator for crypto trading is Moving average 20 and 50, MACD and trend line. And this indicator work better in time frame daily.

[buivanquan22]

I usually use Bollinger Bands and RSI but just for reference. In this market, technical analysis is only a small part. There is too much manipulation. News also has a big impact on prices

[Coleen]

Knowing what indicators to use and what is the best combination of technical indicators can dramatically improve your chart reading skills. If you use the wrong technical indicators, this can lead to inaccurate price interpretation and subsequently, too bad trading decisions.

Could you give us some more details about the customization?

For large position trades for holding you want to buy things below 20 RSI on the daily chart.. for trying to updraft on an uptrend, you want to buy the TK golden cross on the 4hour above the cloud.. for judging how far something can fall use Fibonacci retracement with elliot wave theory to measure ideal spots to buy based off of an ABC correction pattern (fully see the bulltrap play out first, and then use Fibonacci levels and how price reacts to judge areas of buying.

The problem you face in taking positions in a market like this is you have to somewhat trust knowledge and instincts if you want to min/max potential by in essence catching the falling dagger, and often times thats more a feel type thing. But ETH is a good example as of a couple of days ago.. you have to ask yourself "Are people really gonna margin short ETH at 17RSI after a 25% daily fall?  We don't know how far ETH can really go upwards, but you know that the bleeding can't continue at the same rate.

Although I don't believe anymore in the "self fullfilling prophecy" of the technical analysis, I found an interesting report of an scientific investigation by A. Zhing at the Stanford University about the accuracy of stock prediction with indicators of technical analysis, which seemed to have an accuracy of 70%, if I understood that right.

Have you thought about trying depth chart analysis for an indicator? It's what I do to view short-term sentiment and momentum, and then trade off it. I am now making 1-2% consistently on the majority of my trades, getting in and out quickly. Losses are contained when the market moves against you.

Any questions, let me know!

Thank you and can you give more details? How do you analyze the depth chart? If you can explain with an example, I guess all of us can understand quickly.
