When it comes to scalping I largely use pure price action.

Price action is the only way to profit from scalping. You simply dont have time for anything else

True.. Pure price action is the key for scalping and swing trading. Support & resistance is helpful too.

 

[mlawson71]

I agree. Also, in my experience at least, indicators always lag a little. That's fine when using the longer time-frames, but if you're using the one minute or five minute charts, that's not acceptable.

So what is the ideal indicator for it? I mean what is the name?

Moving average is a very good indicator. It is possible to make a profit by trading with this indicator. Many traders are trading this indicator. So I am very satisfied to trade with this indicator.

these indicators are free of cost built into the mt4 and mt5 platform in the menu bar just click insert and then select indicators, you have a lot of choices

Why do we need to use indicators for scalping, and which indicator is best suitable for scalping with EURUSD currency pairs?

 

[Daantje Pieters]

I do not trade with indicators but some indicators are very helpful. Such as Moving Average, MCDI divergence, vwap etc. This moving average helps a lot in making profit in trading. If a trader trades through this strategy, he will be able to make a profit.

I'm not sure if indicators have a high success rate, but it is also the only way to profit from scalping, and I agree as well that pure price action is good.

True.. Pure price action is the key for scalping and swing trading. Support & resistance is helpful too.

I agree. The problem is that indicators often just lag and are not suitable to use for scalping.

Looking for a good indicator for scalping, and I mostly scalp using EURUSD currency pairs. Any recommendations?

Moving average is a very good indicator. It is possible to make a profit by trading with this indicator. Not enough but a good start

You can try using 2 moving average indicators. A fast one and a slow one. Maybe for example 5 min and 20 min. Also can add Ichimoku cloud.

Based on my current trading experience, I think that a custom trading system is the best indicator for scalping. When you're familiar with nonlagMA, it's a very good indicator for scalping. It's also a good indicator for long term trading, but you need to manage it properly.

 

[Alex@nder]

Most indicators are suitable for scalping, but they are not 100% accurate. Indicators built into the mt4 and mt5 platforms are also reliable and free of cost.

Indicators are mostly lagging so using it to pick a trade would most times give you lagging signals too when the move is almost over. Stick to analyzing the market direction on the higher time frame and use your lower time frame to pick entries with price action
