A lot will depend on your own unique trading style and financial goals, as indicators on MT4 serve a range of different purposes. There are over 30 to choose from, but some of the most popular include MACD, Stochastic, Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Bollinger Bands.
This also depends on your trading strategy, but one of the most popular for FX traders is the Relative Strength Index (RSI). RSI highlights a temporary oversold or overbought condition in the market. An RSI value of over 70 represents an overbought market, and a value below 30 suggests an oversold market.

We don’t mean to repeat ourselves here – but this also depends on your trading strategy. In the main, traders tend to follow the principle that the best time to trade is when the market is active or even volatile. Liquidity is an important factor too. It also helps to keep a close eye on the latest price trends, as a sudden hike or drop or prices could offer potential profit opportunities for traders on the ball.
