4 Powerful Trading Indicators Every Trader Should Know
Mastering technical indicators can take your trading game to the next level. Here’s a quick guide to 4 must-know tools:
1. EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
Tracks market trend direction. When price stays above the EMA, it signals bullish strength; below it, bearish momentum.
2. MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)
Acts as a buy/sell signal. Look for line crossovers and histogram movement to spot trend changes and entry/exit points.
3. RSI (Relative Strength Index)
Measures if an asset is overbought or oversold. Above 70 = overbought, below 30 = oversold. Great for timing entries.
4. Volume
Reveals price momentum. Rising volume = strong trend confirmation. Falling volume = trend may be weakening.
Use these indicators together for smarter, more confident trades!

Market Wizard Linda Raschke’s Technical Trading Rules:
1. Buy the first pullback after a new high. Sell the first rally after a new low.
2. Afternoon strength or weakness should have follow through the next day.
3. The best trading reversals occur in the morning, not the afternoon.
4. The larger the market gaps, the greater the odds of continuation and a trend.
5. The way the market trades around the previous day’s high or low is a good indicator of the market’s technical strength or weakness.
6. The previous day’s high and low are two very important “pivot” points, for this was the definitive point where buyers or sellers came in the day before. Look for the market to either test and reverse off these points, or push through and show signs of continuation.
7. The last hour often tells the truth about how strong a trend truly is. “Smart” money shows their hand in the last hour, continuing to mark positions in their favor. As long as a market is having consecutive strong closes, look for up-trend to continue. The up trend is most likely to end when there is a morning rally first, followed by a weak close.
8. High volume on the close implies continuity the next morning in the direction of the last half-hour. In a strongly trending market, look for resumption of the trend in the last hour.
9. The first hour’s range establishes the framework for the rest of the trading day.
10. A greater percentage of the day’s range occurs in the first hour then was the case in the past, and thus it has become increasingly important to trade aggressively if there are early signs of a strong trend for the day.
11. There are four basic principles of price behavior which have held up over time. Confidence that a type of price action is a true principle is what allows a trader to develop a systematic approach.

You can wish and hope that the market will come back, or you can cut your loss and make yourself ready to take the next opportunity.
