Hi

Charts? --- there are several kinds - line, bar, candles, etc. Which one? Why dont you start with the most common - the candles.

http://www.candlestickshop.com/glossary/index.html
http://www.rightline.net/charts/candlestick.html

I printed the glossary out, some charts and track them to learn fundamental indications of support/resistance.

Indicators -- there are many. You can try learning in alphabetical order, if you wish.

There was a popular book called Technical Analysis from A to Z by Steven Achelis.
You can read for free here:

I followed up later with coding and customising them in MetaTrader. IMO, there is no use you learn indicators without knowing 3 things:

1) Their mathematical formula
2) The codes structure in your platforms
3) Customisation and control of variables on the 9 time-frames.

Just my own opinion.
