Why do you use the ones you do?
Just thought I'd start this up to get some discussion about this stuff, since it seems like there are a million and one "tools" out there, but everyone's got their favorites right?

It really depends on the type of trading you do. I'd have to stay after I look at a chart i like, with a good trent I'm comfortable with, I use RSI first to get good buy points. Even though MACD is lagging, you can base yourself on what happened before to know if it works for the future.
Basically, I use a combination of Chaikin Money flow for Volume, RSI for OB/OS levels(and entry point), MACD for trend reversal(on a small scale) and Price relative to see how it's going compared to the major index. This is really fort short term plays though, not intraday.
For Intraday, I like the way chuck does it, how he approaches a stock's volatility. Not for me though, not now at least.
