you're correct, i checked, sorry we can't chose the tf of the htf indicators so i understand why yelena uses 2 charts per pair so YElena : if you take a trade only if H1 and M5 gave the same signal, is like having 4 tf confirming the trade Because ...

but would that be the same result if you were using in the 1.7 signaler the htf 1H instead of 15m when you're on the 5M chart ? less probability ?

YELENA thanks for sharing your way of using symphonie here is my question : why do you use 2 charts per pair ? why dont you use just one M5 chart as the signal indy 1.7 allows you to set the Higher tf in the display you could display on the same M5 ...

we clearly have to define more precisely "the trend" with Al The TMA steep can no be enough we'll very often have counter trend trades if we only use tma at least it's my opinion

ok so what did you see on your charts for my EY short ?
- Alex84 replied Feb 24, 2012
