Indicators Do What They Say They Are Going to Do

     Trading indicators can be very effective in helping traders plan a trade. It is basically another way to help limit risk and identify sound opportunities, and that's the only real way to make net profit through trading I think. No method is perfect and none works all the time but a decent technician can find a trade that you might take and give you the plan for success or failure of that trade.

However,indicators do what they say they are going to do... they INDICATE. They do not PREDICT. If you have any sort of questions pertaining to where and the best ways to utilize ninjatrader ichimoku, you can call us at our own web site.


One of my trading mentors once described it best:

"You are driving behind someone in the right lane and approaching a possible right turn. The driver ahead turns on his right turn indicator light. It is very probable he is signaling a right turn. However, like all of us have experienced, he may not turn immediately, he may turn right a little later, or in the end not at all. It's frustrating but it's reality."

Please don't think one technical indicator is the equivalent of an ATM machine. It is nothing more than a trading tool. Just like a screwdriver can help reduce the effort for driving a screw into wood, so too can an indicator reduce the effort of trading.

But, one screwdriver does not build a beautiful piece of furniture. It takes a set of tools and the knowledge (training) to do it right.
