hey 69..... there are unlimited methods to the market but seeing as how this thread is talkin about multiple indicators let me toss this in....
you can combine your multiple indicators into 1.... then use that 1 indicator to paint the bars such as hieken ashi does...... it's far more pleasing to the eyes.....
yes, excellent indicators will often give opposing signals..... not only on differing time frames but also on the same time frame..... it's just the math.....
in metastock i created a '3 musketteers' trading system, you might know their famous saying, 'all for 1 and 1 for all'..... it was actually 3 separate sytems combine into 1..... my thoughts were, by having 3 separate buy/sell systems givin me their buy/sell decisons and trading only when all 3 agreed things would pay out better.... and it does.....
mq4 makes that task far easier..... my ea 'superman' is named for the very reason yall are talkin about, it would take a superman to focus on more than 6 indicators ..... but the ea is using well over 20 indicators to make buy/sell decisions..... h
