Hi, thank you for your question! 

When getting involved in any kind of trading whether it is Forex, commodities, or shares trading, it is necessary to learn more about technical indicators in order to be successful.

Here are some of the most popular trading indicators:

Moving average (MA)
Exponential moving average (EMA)
Stochastic oscillator
Moving average convergence divergence (MACD)
Bollinger bands
Relative strength index (RSI)
Fibonacci retracement
Ichimoku cloud
Standard deviation
Average directional index

You can use these and adapt them to your goals and capabilities, which will give an optimal result and best suit your strategy.  Trading indicators are best used in combination with signals in order to confirm them and act on a specific trade.

Trading indicators use the traded price, and volumes to draw conclusion to help in anticipating the momentum.
