What is a good indicator for titrating potassium hydroxide with hydrobromic acid?

Potassium hydroxide is a strong base and hydrobromic acid is a strong acid. This implies that the pH of the end-point [neutralization] of their titration will be around pH 7. A good indicator for this kind of pH is bromthymol blue. This is because this indicator changes its colour at pH 7.
