Trend and momentum
Moving averages smooth price and highlight direction; crosses and slopes are common signals—always confirm with structure or volatility context.
Momentum oscillators can flag stretched conditions but work best alongside trend filters so you are not fading strong moves blindly.
Volatility and volume
Bands and envelope-style tools describe expansion and contraction—useful for placing stops and anticipating breakout versus range regimes.
Where volume or proxy metrics exist, they help validate participation behind a move.
Avoiding overload
Too many indicators create conflicting stories. Pick a small set, learn their strengths and document how you interpret them in your plan.
