<![CDATA[my tradingview chart has 9 indicators and i think its hurting me]]>somewhere along the way my main chart accumulated nine indicators. rsi, macd, three moving averages, bollinger, a volume thing, vwap and some oscillator i dont even remember adding. half the time they contradict each other and i freeze.

trying to decide what to actually keep. how do you experienced folks decide which indicators earn their place versus which are just comfort blankets?
