Choose one indicator, your life depends on it!

Picture this:

You are being held at gun point and forced to trade forex!

You can have just one SINGLE indicator to help in making your buy/sell decisions

Which indicator would YOU use (and how )?

pips-galor888 started this thread wasp, based just on price, how would you make a decision on, say, a chart showing nothing but red on all time frames? How long would you wait to decide to enter long/short and what would you base your decision on?

well, we had the first rain of the year yesterday, even though the Rainy Season doesn't start properly until next month.
So, this time of year I always switch to my most prized and reliable indicator - RAIN.
when it's wet go Short, when the rain ceases for a while, go Long.

I'd rather use rain than shyte like Stochastics etc

if u can't accept that only 2 or 3 trades out of 10 will be small winners, & that 2 or 3 will be scratched for even & that 3 or 4, even 5 will be losers, with possibly only 1 in 10 trades being "payday" then u shouldn't even consider trading

my Opinion is never "humble "
