Reading Markets Without Indicators
Indicators show you what already happened, transformed into a different shape. This book explains what becomes visible when you look at price directly.
Your chart looks bare. Something feels missing. How can you decide without the lines?
That feeling is the problem. Indicators show you what already happened, transformed into a different shape. The information was already there. The indicator just made it feel more complete.
This book explains what indicators actually do, why they feel necessary, and what becomes visible when you look at price directly.
