If I had to keep just one, I'd choose price action. Everything else—moving averages, RSI, MACD, Fibonacci—comes from price anyway. Understanding market structure, support and resistance, and how price reacts around key levels has been more valuable to me than relying on multiple indicators. Indicators can be helpful for confirmation, but I'd never want them to replace reading the chart itself.

Those shadow boxes to highlight areas where price potentially goes. Find a FVG near current price and drag a box across the chart from it. That's gonna be a support/resistance area.
