For a novice trader an international forex trading platform that only learns the basics of forex trading, pay attention to the characteristics and characteristics of different indicators, it would be strange, much is unclear, unclear and you can get confused. Typically, for a very long period, a beginner at Forex generally does not know what indicators are. For him, this is akin to some lines, the intersection of which he takes as a signal to buy or sell. But unfortunately, many experienced players do not have qualitative knowledge or a deep analytical mind, making deals under the influence of emotions rather than conditioned facts, perceiving instruments as just lines or drawings fall into a trap, and often lose all means. To avoid this, you need to understand the purpose of important market instruments - indicators and oscillators. Knowledge of their types, basic characteristics and principles of work, helps correctly create an effective trading strategy, based on which, in the future, the trader forms his trading system. Specialists strongly recommend traders, at the training stage, not to miss the main thing: carefully study and determine for themselves the difference between the oscillators and indicators, what tools they are and what problems they solve on Forex. As for the indicators, the creation of a successful trading strategy is never complete without their help. The process of forming a strategy for a trader is akin to a designer or entertaining math puzzle, from individual parts, the player collects a whole picture or builds a structure. So, forex, a trader, to build an effective and profitable strategy, you need to know the properties, characteristics and basic functions of one or another tool. In modern forex platforms (the most famous terminal CTrader, MT4), all indicators are presented in the form of groups and are divided into types - oscillators, volume indicators or trend. And it's not just that. Logically, the trader has a question - what are the differences? How to understand the difference between trend and oscillators or volumetric market indicators? For this it is worthwhile to carefully consider each type of indicator, highlighting its main functions. So, in order: 1) trend indicators The main function of trend indicators is to monitor the market situation at the current time. As you can see from the name of the instrument, trend indicators demonstrate the current state of affairs in the market, show the main trend and its direction. For a beginner forex trader, using a trend group of indicators helps to distinguish the direction of the exchange, at the moment. This is important because a beginner really can not cope with this task without the help of a special tool. 2) volumetric indicators Volumetric indicators perform the function of catching: they can detect large-scale players. It's simple: any growth or fall is based on the amount of finance (money supply), which in turn provoked this rise or fall of the foreign exchange market. With the help of volume indicators, the speculator can always be aware of and know what was the jump in the market - the movement of capital or is it a false signal, a false move that is unrelated. 3) oscillators As for the oscillators, these are special indicators, thanks to which it is possible to predict in advance a potentially possible market turn: whether it will happen shortly, and at the same time make the most of its knowledge. Oscillators not only demonstrate significant reversals but also help players when entering the kickbacks. And if the trend or volume indicators show the current situation on the stock exchange, while providing signals for the entry (partially delayed), then the oscillators, in turn, work on the mode in advance, in advance showing the likely points of a turn in forex. This is the chance of an instrument that tries to predict the possible movement of the stock exchange. For example, a stochastic oscillator (stochastic) analyzes, examining market parameters - overbought and oversold, and further, subsequently received information, its processing and analysis, predict possible changes in the market trend. For all modernity and advanced functionality, often, oscillators provide the trader with a lot of false information, so use their readings in conjunction with other tools. Such comprehensive analysis of the market will create a powerful and profitable trading system of trading.
