Risk warning: Indicators only show what already happened on the chart. Test them on past data and a demo account before you rely on them. Read the full risk disclosure
TradingView has thousands of public scripts, but more lines on the chart do not mean better decisions. Start with a few classic indicators, learn what each one measures and add a script only when it answers a question your chart cannot. Check the author, read the comments and remember that many scripts repaint, which makes past signals look better than they really were.
