In my opinion, technical indicators are all repainted and cannot be fully relied upon, so to be able to use these indicators we must master them and explore them as best we can so that we will know for ourselves how these indicators work and also know the advantages by themselves.

the indicators we use must be mastered well, for example MA has the characteristics to understand a trend and follow it, the trend line to find support and resistance and so on, so a good indicator is a simple and easy indicator we master.

all indicators in my opinion have different characteristics but each also has weaknesses and we must be able to manage these weaknesses so as not to make a false signal for our trading analysis...

We do not know the characteristics of an indicator without us studying the indicators themselves as best we can because each indicator has different characteristics so we must also study each one.

from my judgment a good indicator has an easy to understand characteristic but is rarely found repaint even though all technical indicators are repainted but at least we try to find weaknesses of the indicators we use to make it easier to read the characters.

A good indicator for trading is an indicator that is easy to understand and must have a clear signal that supports trading analysis, in order to facilitate the user in each of their trading transactions.

each indicator has its own characteristics so if we examine deeper then an indicator will have advantages and disadvantages of each, but it is not possible we will learn everything so we must choose and persevere one or several indicators that match our trading character.

Every indicator is all good, especially those that have become patents on the platform, traders must understand the characteristics of the indicator to be able to better know the signal conditions that the indicator gives.

an indicator has characteristics that we can monitor if we know what the characteristics are, in each indicator there will certainly have their respective characteristics and within these characteristics there must be weaknesses and strengths that we can know.

good indicators do have basic criteria such as simple and high accuracy, but not all indicators are like that and these characteristics are also relatively dependent on who uses them.

A good indicator is certainly easy to read and accurate.
but aside from the indicator, the traser must also know the characteristics of the indicator that you are using.

Using and getting to know an indicator is very easy, but what is difficult is indeed an understanding of the characteristics of the indicator.
Sometimes every condition will be different how to read.
