Hi i'm reposting my original post since no one reply tnx again.

"Hi everyone, I'm new in this thread. I copied the indicators posted on post #25. The Tdi, synergy, stoch slope, and the templ.
All is great I manually back tested it and I have good results. I tried both the tdi cross plus the heiken ashi candle to close below or above the MA to take trades and it works. I also tried using stoch slope to touch lines only(this gave me earlier entries most of the time but no tdi cross or ma cross confirmations) its more risky but u get in earlier.
Anyway, since I cant watch the screen all day waiting for tdi cross, stoch line touch or the ha to cross and close over MA I wanted to ask you guys if there is a version of these set of indis with email alert or better yet push notification alert for the cell phones????
I would appreciate it if anyone can help me with this.

thanks in advance,"

Wow this thread should be renamed. Trading made more complicated by the week!
this happens to most good method trading threads. No one in charge to take charge and the thread becomes a mess. Like the average Forex trader is.

I am pretty sure that if you work with Google for a few minutes you will find suitable alerts.

Best method is to trade the daily chart using the weekly and monthly as higher TF. that way you can study the charts carefully before making entries.

{quote} Hi, Pulubi! It takes just a few seconds to look at a pair. I look at them 2-3 minutes before the new candle opens, and then I look again at them after the candle opened. Based on the original method, you just need to look at the open of the APB candle, TDI angle, stochastics direction, and look left. If there is divergence, that's even better. This trade was taken near the S/R, but Dimi seems to have lots of success getting his pips even in these areas. So I decided to try it his way, but keep in mind that after I had entered, I monitored...
As always, thank you Catalin!! I will try that also. I think I am seeing a clearer picture now and it gets me very excited because I think I am getting there. Still a loooong way, but will be there.

Hi,

Please post your AJ trade chart and members here will help you.

No need for additional indicator since we have the Stochastics and TDI. You need to learn price action and how to look for support and resistance.

Hello Emm, have you ever trade H4 reversal? Do you wait only TDI cross or you make a position when candle changes colour and price cross EMA10? regards, Dan

Hi,

yes, I trade H4 reversals and also breakouts of consolidation for my 4H swing trading.

I look at price action reversal setups using price bar patterns at support and resistance.
The setups will be confirmed with the TDI cross, bounce, 12-2 and 4-6 clock face angle.
When there is price action setups, the APB will support the trade setup.

I suggest you stick to the basic 5-Method template and follow the rules using the 5EMA, Typical Price, Shift+3 and not use the 10EMA.

​You would have to say Emmanuel is the daddy of this thread, however it wouldn't be a bad idea to have this kept as the original TMS as it should be, and a more advanced tms thread for the more adventurists traders wanting to add their slant. As a newbie it does tend to get confussing with all the extras added. Dimi had it spot on.

Maybe Emm can lead us on this??

Hello, Pulubi!

I am sure you will get there. Just be pacient, and stay on demo as long as it takes. I do not remember exactly when I started learning TMS, but it was approximately about 6 months ago, and just this year I went live, after trying different methods of TMS, different TDIs, different TFs... So it took me half a year to feel confident in the method, that and lots of help from good guys who have always been helpful.

Here are my two trades taken at LO:

GU, H1, short, 25 pips, because although is very possible that PA makes today a LL, 25 pips seems ok after looking left. Just as Dimi said to me, "do not be afraid to take 20-30 pips in a trade." He is right, it adds up. The way he does it is he locks in the profit after that amount of pips, and lets the trade move on.

EC, H1, long, 40 pips. Looking left and looking at the calendar, 40 pips seems ok for the first hour of LO.

Quick trades, easy trades, it took 17 minutes to get almost 70 pips. Another thing Dimi said to me is "If you see a good cross, do not be afraid to take it. Do it, man!" Something like that. I did exactly that.

If you take a look at my trades, on both of them there was BUEB and BEEB patterns. And we know from Big Emm how important those are, don't we?

I wish you green pips, Pulubi!

As I understand and from what Elfranz said at the start, the thread starter can ban people, so If emm want to this this it's fine with me, but it's quite easy just to ignore the rubbish and bickering etc.

Hi, Scrambleguy!

It does not have to get confusing if you do not want to. Sesamstrasse, Dimi, Deichkind, and I am sure there are others too, they all have success trading the original method. If it works for them, it has to work for you, too. Stick to that until you master it. After that, you can look into advanced TMS or other elements (different TDI, PAC, no stchastics, MAs etc.) I fully understand you, because I had the same issue. Now I know I should have done it as I explained above.

I hope that was helpful and that your trading has improved. Happy trading!

The strategy is only 1/3 piece of the game ..
The other 2/3 are experience and the psychological aspect.

People often start " testing " new strategies, indicators.. and whatever..
.. how can they build confidence in ONE system ., master it and make money ??
Dont forget .. stable systems work all the time .. a Pizza is cut in 12 Pieces, allover the planet..
A car has 4 Wheels , not 5 or 9 .. Four.. because its stable .

Catalin is totally right..
And with the confidence of a stable system , its the edge, everyone is looking for..
Basic priceaction and a stable system is it
I have nothing to say else ..

Green pips

As a newbie myself, I like that the more experienced traders are sharing extended ideas as well as helping guide in the core TMS system. We should all be big and old enough to know that one should master the basics of anything first, then look to improve through further learnings. I see no harm in the discussion of those additional learnings whilst I focus on the basics It seems to me that the experienced traders here are repeatedly telling us newbies to keep it simple, even if they have evolved. If it was the other way round, and the masters were saying to add this that and the other, then I'd be more cautious. The balance feels good to me TBH

Agreed. It's sad that people are littering the thread with rubbish.

This is one reason why I didn't want to post much in here because it usually just gets overtaken by spam and other shit.

If only we could clean this thread up or start a new one because hardly any one in here trades the way according to Eelfranz. We've got people talking about fractals, parabolic sars, 10 ema's, 100 sma's and all this other shit. Then we've got people with charts with Mortal Kombat characters and Sega Dreamcast sprites.

We'll see. If it continues to clutter I'll speak to Emmanuel about starting up a new thread and possibly trying to get this one closed. It's just out of control now and the only one who is really helping direct new people is Emmanuel. Without him, this thread would probably have advertisements and gay pron in it by now.
