USDCAD 1Hr Long

I'd actually entered on M15 . I got off my EU long when I realised USD was getting stronger against CAD. I've got a SL of 12 pips....

{quote}{quote} Hi mate, just got a chance to get on the computer to have a go at drawing the lines I have attached the chart f G/U and drawn lines on it where there was a prevailing trend change. Just wanted to check if you think i drew it correctly. As the red candles didnt continue for a long time and they are against the main trend could of gone long on the 1st green candle after the red line would have been broken right? i only drew the lines for the green candles just to see if i did it correctly {image}

Thanks Pips. I figured it would keep ranging FOMC till minutes so I played the range with a simple 1:1 RR, but was wrong.

You aren't quite doing this right. What tanglewood was showing you was to draw a trendline on the retracements, to wait for a break above the trendline signifying a trend resumption.

Apologies for my second post. Do not mean to be a pain but can someone please help me understand why the trade below went wrong? How could I have avoided it? As per the rules green crossed red & the second blue candle looked fine (first one was a Doji though). I would appreciate your response as I am trying to learn this effective method. Thanks a lot in advance.

Hey Kahn,
I've had a look at this pair and can see that PA turned back once it had reached its ATR . This indie I've attached shows this up.

I think what I had done is drew the lines on the blues candles which were part of the trend. The retracement of the trend were the red candle dips so i was meant to draw across the tops of the red candle. I got you now! When drawing these lines you draw them on the candles that do not fit into the trend. If they continue going that direction it may mean the trend is changing but if it breaks that line it would mean its continuing its normal trend.


Come to think of it I think my losing trends is were i traded in retracements and got caught out I went against the trend rather than with the trend

I got caught on that trade exactly the same as you , the candle repainted and my SL got hit -- it happens , I'm afraid , but not too often.
Don't be discouraged . Its just one of the bad ones .
I had 3 other trades using TMS , all had profit .

Hi Jag, you've got it now. That chart example jmflukeiii posted (post 39,695) was a great example of what I meant and obviously helped you see what I was getting at, it's true that a picture's worth a thousand words. Good luck with it if you try it.

Very clear example
I took this trade on EUR/USD not too long ago, lets see where it ends up. My last trade i took with USD/JPY i exited with a small profit. I was at work and i didn't notice until afterwards price had retraced quite a bit. I would have exited earlier when TDI signaled. Here is a chart of my trade.
