How do you determin which is the best setting for any given indicator? I realize there are defaults but sometimes I feel I would like a slightly faster signal and other times I would like a more conservitive signal. Is adjusting the time periods considered prudent or is it best to leave settings at the default?

IE: TSV defaults at 38, and offers no buy signal but at 20 it does. 20 seems like enough information to get a true signal but yet it is defaulted at 38 how does one decide which is prudent?

Thanks Thom
