The first is the market sentiment indicator. Market sentiment indicators mainly reflect the emotions and attitudes of market participants towards the futures market. Common market sentiment indicators include VIX index, panic index and market psychological line. These indicators can help short-term futures traders to judge the degree of market risk and investor sentiment, and predict market trends.
Followed by technical indicators. Technical indicators are mainly used to reflect the changing trend of technical indicators such as market price and volume through data statistics and graphic analysis. For example, commonly used technical indicators include moving average, MACD indicator, stochastic indicator and so on. In use, you need to choose and adjust different technical indicators according to market changes and your own trading style.
Finally, there are fundamental indicators. Fundamental indicators mainly reflect various economic and political fundamental data, including interest rates, inflation, policies, trade and so on. Short-term futures traders should be familiar with the changes and impacts of these indicators and seize the corresponding trading opportunities.
In short, short-term futures traders need to choose appropriate indicators according to their trading style and market conditions, and use them flexibly in trading to achieve better trading results.
