Disagree chaps (just to raise the debate).
I use indies (3) not set to standard setting, alot of trial and error and backtesting, used together with an MA and price action, this has enabled me to reduce whipsaw trades and is giving me an 85% success rate.
It has become fairly mechanical, when I see the set up, in without hesitation (having complete trust in the system) works on all timeframes and exit on a pre-defined price.
For example, 1 min chart yesterday, indicated 22 trades, 18 winners, 3 losers, no thought process behind the trades, trading the plan, taking the profts, minimising the losses.
So to say indies are useless, sorry chaps, I disagree, but its down to the individual trader and what they are comfortable with I suppose.
