The challenge is that sometimes all these indicators contradict each other. Countless books have been written on this subject. Please be mindful that there is no “Holy Grail” trading mechanism available in the stock market. However, some people are more successful than others, and the reason is quite simple: No indicator is right all the time! More important is to combine different kinds of technical indicators into a sound comprehensive investment process which will grant you the competitive trading edge. This investment process does not have to be right all the time. It just should be right a higher percentage of the time than wrong. To improve the accuracy, you need to collect data, and analyze available information. Eventually you will come up with applicable models suitable for your trading or investing.
