Using Candlesticks together with Indicators
This is one of the most effective strategies to use when trading Forex. Using Candlesticks together with Indicators.
Candlesticks are good signals. They show you the price actions and they show you where the market is likely to go. But sometimes, candlesticks maybe wrong.
Indicators, on the other hand, are doing the same thing but for a longer period of time. Usually, they work on past data of the market and at the same time, tell you the movement of the market based on the averages of the past data. They maybe good but they lag behind. Following solely on indicators will not ensure that you trade at the correct time.
But by combining indicators and candlesticks analysis, you have double confirmation and can trade more confidently. My favorite strategy is using Candlesticks with Stochastics. When the stochastics indicate Oversold and when I see a reversal candlestick signal, I know that it is Buy time!
