Regardless of whether your trading stocks, forex, or futures, it’s often best to keep it simple when it comes to technical indicators.

A technical indicator offers a different perspective from which to analyze the price action. Some, such as moving averages, are derived from simple formulas and the mechanics are relatively easy to understand. Others, such as Stochastics, have complex formulas and require more study to fully understand and appreciate.

Regardless of the complexity of the formula, technical indicators can provide a unique perspective on the strength and direction of the underlying price action.

“Multicollinearity” is a statistical term that refers to the multiple counting of the same information. This is a common problem in technical analysis that occurs when the same types of indicators are applied to one chart.
