For me there is no such thing as the best indicator. For me each indicator has its own uses. So it doesn't matter how simple the indicator is if you don't know how to use it, it doesn't do you any good. But if you know how to use it then the best indicator for you. So far I prefer to use MACD. This is due to several ways I learned how MacD works but I am still trying to learn how other indicators work. sooner or later I will learn as many indicators as I can use to trade on forex.
