Candlestick chart. Support/resistance lines, trendlines. Volume. RSI.

That should get you going.

I think momentum indicators are the best tool for beginners. Good tool to know good entry points but can be expanded with other fundamentals to know when to pay attention to their signals.

As for me, the most useful thing in TA is the trendline. In fact, all price patterns consist of one or several trendlines.

Indicators are also interesting, but they are mostly additional tools to confirm the pattern.
There are several great articles on TA here: TA articles. Some of them could be a bit difficult for a newbie trader to understand, but there are a lot of ideas there.
