Trading without indicators is like sailing a ship without a compass. That's pure blind sailing and gambling when it comes to trading. Relying on candlestick formations alone may get you a few wins but it won't last. It will eventually wreck the trader. For instance, a Doji on a support or resistance is possibly signifying a reversal but a Doji on no support or resistance region is obviously a fakey, just to shake off traders. Indicators beyond candlesticks is the way to go. I rely on support and resistance lines.
