On the utility of lagging indicators for commodity entries

I'm finding myself increasingly skeptical of traditional lagging indicators like RSI or MACD for generating timely entries in commodities, especially given the rapid shifts we've seen. While $SPY is pulling back a bit today to $741.57, and $USDTRY continues its grind at $46.8526, it feels like waiting for confirmation often means missing the initial move, particularly in the more volatile energy sector. Am I alone in preferring pure price action and volume analysis over anything else for actual execution, or do others still find value in the slower moving averages or oscillators for entry timing? Push back if you disagree.
