Traders Arsenal

Just wondering if it would be useful to share some ideas on what we consider essential to have in our trading arsenal by way of resources etc. As a newbie I’d certainly appreciate having a kind of digest of people’s favourite tools etc so I can investigate further. I’ll put my pips worth here to start the ball rolling:

Nope, haven’t tried that one. Is ‘alligator’ a specific indicator or just a name for using three moving averages together with Fib? Is this what you trade with?
