Effective technical analysis indicators that help you make better trading decisions:
First: Moving Averages (MA)
🔸️Goal: To identify market direction and determine potential support and resistance levels.
Popular settings:
🔹️Short-term moving average: 50 days
🔹️Long-term moving average: 200 days
How to use:
🔹️Buy signal: When the 50-day moving average crosses above the 200-day moving average from below, known as the "golden cross" — usually considered the start of an upward trend.
🔹️Sell signal: When the 50-day moving average drops below the 200-day moving average, known as the "death cross," which may indicate the start of a downward trend.
🔸️Practical example:
If the market experiences a golden cross, it may be a positive signal to buy.
Second: Relative Strength Index (RSI)
🔸️Goal: To know whether the asset has been overbought or oversold.
🔹️Typical setting: 14-day period
🔸️How to use:
🔹️Buy signal: When the RSI drops below 30 (oversold area) and then rises back above it.
🔹️Sell signal: When the RSI rises above 70 (overbought area) and then falls below this level.
🔸️Practical example:
If the RSI reaches 25 and then rises to 35, it may be seen as a good opportunity to enter a buy trade.
