When using the default mt4 indicator, there are those who use standard settings, but there are also those who do the settings with their own thoughts, what about you, like to use default settings or do your own settings?

depending on usage and time frame, sometimes I just use the default settings and sometimes I do manual settings.

I prefer to use the default indicator instead of setting it up, but for certain indicators I sometimes set the indicator.

The default indicator is actually quite powerful because it is designed according to various time frames as well as the trading style and character of a pair.

I usually change the settings for indicators that need to be changed, for example stochastic, bowlingerband and so on.

I am used to setting up several types of indicators to suit the time frame and also the period to be used so that it also matches the profit to be achieved.

actually an indicator has been designed in such a way that traders can immediately use it in the right way so there is no need to change settings.

Default indicators are good, but they are not suitable for everyone.
If these settings do not suit us, make changes to settings that are good for us by viewing and adjusting our previous trading history.

I think this depends on which one we are more comfortable with, whether we are more comfortable with the default settings or settings that we set ourselves, the important thing is that we can be disciplined in running and in the end will provide consistent benefits as we expect.

Default indicator settings to try this indicator, after doing several trades we can definitely see the shortcomings of the default setting.
We can change the indicator settings and adjust it to the trading techniques we usually do.

actually the indicator is set in normal conditions, but if a trader wants to modify it, it doesn't matter because it can be adjusted according to needs.

using the default settings can also generate profits, and there are lots of examples, but if you want to use your own settings, of course we have to do research first or test it for a long time.

everything is just as good, we just have to stay before using an indicator we must first understand all the ins and outs of the indicator so that we can use it properly and correctly

I prefer to use indicators with standard settings or like the original, because that way I don't have to bother doing research and testing

If we can use standard indicator settings then we just need to use it, without the need to spend time trying other settings that may not be profitable in the end.
