Trading made simple without the TDI, you can use any platform' standard MACD. The MACD setting is 2,13,7 {image} This was shared by another members years back. Also, you can use the CCI which Big E did mention one of his post.

{quote} For those not having a MT4 Platform : In place of the TDI -> use the CCI set to 6 and for the level enter a 0.0 line. When the line crosses the 0.0 line you normally have a set up. Anyone can use CCI instead of the TDI.... What about the MACD? So long you know how to trade price action, any indicator that is placed below the price will confirm the price action. {image}

{quote} Thanks for your response Tekkies. I understand you advocate entering a few minutes before the bar on the H4 that indicates a cross over is complete. However in the example youve shown where the red line is placed indicates the opening of the H4 bar not the close, If I entered at that area on the H1 chart the h4 bar would still have 3 hours before it is closed. So slightly confused. So would I wait for the h4 bar to completely close and indicate a cross down or up and then go down to the H1 to find an entry. Or do i simply see a good angle...

{quote} Yes, the red line is misleading. For that matter check all TDI indicator that plot H- line or arrow on chart. It is plotted always after the cross over has happened one bar late. That is way many members fail with this method. Was under the impression you know that. ------- How many hours / days did you spend to find the right TDI indicator? Do you know how to use TDI indie? Have you watch what happen when TDI crossover with a arrow or H-Line? Have you read TDI Cross.pdf? Have you tried these two indies to study the difference between the...

{quote} Ok- not quite sure what you are trying to reiterate in the post above. I use the realtime version of the TDI which I got from this thread on one of the posts. My point is that all your red lines are the beginning of a new bar not the close but yet you advocated I should enter on the last few mins of a close of the H4 but by that time would the entry on the H1 not be missed by 3-4 bars? I see you post this on your method too by using the H1 to check angle and entering on the m15, do you not wait for the H1 bar to close before picking off...

{quote}There was a trader called Lastingwell who used the H1/H4 in the same way, have a read of her posts, it should help. Here is one of them but there are many more: https://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?p=8877488#post8877488 . In that example she is explaining H4/D1 but she mostly traded h1/h4 - exactly the same principle.

{quote} The reiterate is I can not help you with H1/H4. I only know how to use M15/H1. -------- Problem: Now that you mentioned it. I don't use TDI realtime. I use a TDI that update green / red only when the new bar start. Problem: You are trying to use my method on a timespan which have not be tested. That means you will not get the same results. You have to find out for yourself when to enter a trade / close a trade. Maybe H1/H4 is not meant to be used like this. I don't know. {image}

I finally had about a break even week in awhile. It happens. You can't win em all. I just have another tip for everyone. If you are unsure on the size of the candle to trade on the cross; sometimes the heiken ashi can be a tad misleading. Switch over real quick to the normal candle view and look at that particular candle. If it is small or a wick candle it is most likely a tdi cross not to trade. Unless the wick is confirming the same direction.

Now you have to do some homework: - Take every TDI indicator and test it in real time. M1 would do nicely. The indie that only update the green line on the start of the new bar is the one you should pick - Find a stoch indie that does the same. -------- Over the weekend...

{quote} Hi Tekkies-Hope you are having a good weekend. I have been testing several TDI's from the link you sent so thanks for that, currently testing the Synergy Pro TDI to see if i can find some sweet spots. The post advocates to use realtime versions instead of the ones tha repaint. Can I ask which one you are using?

{quote} Roni Lastinwell gave this advice: You need to try them out to see which you are more comfortable trading with, either the repainting version, live version or the one with different settings, like anything else its what you see that matters. ----------- That is way I posted: On this one you are on your own ----------- Why not use what BigE and Dami-A used?

{quote} I understand Tekkies- Thank you for your suggestion. Hope you had a great weekend and are ready to make some more pips this week! I have been testing most of them out and for this method i think the repainting ones work better for me. Would you agree? Also which TDI have you favoured?

{quote} Still trying to find out what am I using? What is the difference between " Can I ask which one you are using?" and "which TDI have you favoured" -------------------- When started with TMS it was TDI Red Green. Use the RSI 13 / MA 2 / MA 7 for a while. Now that the stage of backtesting / studying is over (Have found what works for me) I am back with TDI Red Green.

{quote} Hi Tekkies- sorry thats not what I meant. Im not looking for the easy way out at all. So I have been testing TDI's and trading, I chose to stick with the Big E repainting version, I have had great success this last week with trades. My strategy is waiting for the h4 to cross or come as close as possible and taking a cross on the h1 in the same direction if tdi prompts it. But last few trades I have gotten greedy and lost mostly all the pips I have made back I think simply due to not chery picking and just trying to trade straight off H1...
