{quote} Thanks for your support, excellent trading I was checking how you manage the trade, those retracement after PA moves +20 sometime make it hard for me to stay in the trade especially after PA moved this much, so when do you move your trades to BE and how do you manage those drawdown back to entry point?
Hi ScorpeS
Hope i understand. I use multiple lot for entry. Set my EA to move BE after 20 pips and lock 1 pip. Also set EA to take 50% profit at 50 pip
and close trade at 100. But most of the time i manage manually.

Not sure anymore what TDI indicator works best.

I used Trade Announcer TDI but it seems to miss crosses so I switched to TDI Mtf + alerts 600. But that seems to only alert when the direction has changed as opposed to a cross and it continually moves the line whereas trade announcer never moved until the candle closed.


And one with alert capability is a must, so I'll keep looking and let you know what I find. If anyone has others please post.

Thanks

All these different versions of the TDI is confusing the hell out of new traders to TMS.

I tested and use a version which is similar to the Synergy_Pro_TDI for more than 2 years.

Hi pips29,

Two Good Trades!

I like the first trade , how you use the 123 pattern.

On H1 the TDI Red over Yellow, is very much like the H4 TDI Green over Red. And when you use the pipware mini-charts, you see the real price action of both H1 and H4. Clever!

Thanks emmanuel,
I just want to ask you an extra question about the TDI indi that you use. Does it update real-time (lines move as PA moves) or it updates only at the end of the candle?

Pros and cons of the two things are obvious, first one is quicker and more accurate, second one avoid noise and fake-outs, so is it better to be "sharp" or to be "smooth" with the TMS ?

Thanks
Lorenzo

{quote} I need to see momentum pick, it did pick for a moment and then if you look closely on M15 there was EMA 200 just been broken, in that case I have 2 options, closing half position and leave the rest to BE because PA could easily suck back into EMA 200 and it did , fibs 61.8 on H1 , EMA 10 on H4
Thank you for the answer! Watching trades on M15 too, but can you please tell more what you mean about EMA10 on H4? Price did broke it in that moment on EUR/AUD and it was looking not bad.

Hi lorbax,

Yes, that TDI is realtime and it updates on every price tick. Knowing this, we must look and the real price and wait for that candle to close to confirm if we get a clear cross.

Also, this pro-TDI version takes into consideration the price volatility, the range of the price bar and its close. This work more effectively with and complements the APB/HA price action. Thanks to Dean Malone for this new version. He and his team must have tested this over the many years since the Synergy model was first created back in 2005 or 2008(cannot recall when?).
However, when you use this pro-TDI version, you will need to re-look at the entry rules and exits rules. I do not use TDI for exit. Also, there will be fewer TDI bounce trades. You are right, it is 'smoother' when we look at it. It is better to use the MBL for view of the next higher TF where the PA and Green/Red daylight (the space between two MAs) aka known as Strat Shadow.

If we do not use MT4, we can simply create the TDI using the RSI indicator which is available in most trading platforms. When we use the platform' RSI and apply 3 moving averages to it, we will also see a realtime Fozzy-RSI(TDI). I used the Fozzy-RSI method for many years for stock trading even before the TDI was marketed.

Hello,

i am new to this thread and its quiet confusing.

1) Is there a EA for this system here? If so what latest files do i need?

Maybe anyone can hit me up with latest informations in some easy words what this is about here, how long its been traded live by anyone with or without success.

thanks in advance

Hi Omonisha,

I'm inspired by your charts and how you have gripped this method like the pro's here.

I would just like to know whether you do a big picture planning at the beginning of each week? Idetifying weekly/monthly support/resistance zones? And also do you have a set criteria which you follow. I would be grateful if you would be able to share some insight into this?

I have seen the PA deccision checklist pdf you attached which is also useful.

Thank you

Hi, Emmanuel

When I save it in a template then reload the template, all the customization I made to the line colors and styles is lost. Is this a known issue? (Actually, I find many TDI indicators don't support style customization properly. Xaphod's TMS-Osc.ex4 is the best in terms of style customization as far as I know....)

Thanks

Hi heispark,

Some indicators are hard coded and do not allow the MT4 customization. Every time the charts are refreshed, they go back to the hard-coded defaults.
Xaphod is very experienced and he know what software quality is about. He understands users behaviour and that shows in all his work.

Tell me which indicator has the problem you mentioned and I can fix them for you.

Hi kingdomk

Yes i do a basic weekly analysis. The S/R, Overbought oversold TDI,the 50 line,the trend. I simply try to get a trade on the basis of HTF trend. Wait for TDI to bounce or cross on LTF [ PA pullback or shallow retrace on the previous S/R] to get on the trade.

Please i'm a newbie too.
