{quote} Instead of saying "look at the candles at the last reversal, are the candle big, little, or what..." We use simple and specific names which are commonly adopted by traders in the trading community. "big and small or little,..." are subjective. What looks like big to you may be small to others. What looks like small to you may be big to others. Anyway, we did not create those price bar patterns. These are found in many trading books. FF member strat uses these in his "The PATH". {image}
Here we go again.
All of a sudden those word's are wrong.
Emmanuel, would you have put X over any of BigE's post where he used "big and small or little,..." were he alive and still posting?
Yes - I'll have to beat your corn flakes black and blue if it happens
No - Why do you refer members to read all of BigE's post that use those word's.

This is not your thread emmanuel. Start your own thread were you can impose your rule's and method of trading.

Do you really believe that Big E stopped learning in Dec 2011 if he did no die?

Keep on dreaming Tekkies.

I'm backtesting trying to get a good feel of how to trade this system. I keep coming against the fake "I'm about to hook and cross the TDI so get out" scenario, and then the trade continues to go in the direction of my trade. There are two screenshots attached. The first one shows the hook. The second one shows the trade after 2 more candles and how the trade continued in the direction of my trade.

The first screenshot with the hook shows that the candles look strong (IMO). There are no upper wicks and trending well, however the "hook" indicates that it's time to get out, but in most of these trades that I am backtesting I would be getting out too soon.

What is it that I'm missing seeing/reading that would tell me that it's a fake hook and in all likelihood better to stay in the trade?

{quote} emmanuel You have not posted "Yes" or "No". Little bit afraid to be honest with yourself and those that read this thread. Those price bar patterns and trading book were already in use before this thread was started in Aug 2010. Unfortunately BigE can not be asked the reason why he chose to use simple word's.

@Tekkies,

I am not going to answer your stupid questions with Yes or No.
That has nothing to do with honesty except your own stupidity shown in your posts in this thread and asking stupid question which you want Yes / No answer.
I am not afraid to be honest. I have no fear in public forum.

You limit yourself to reading 1485 posts only and not wanting tolearn more outside of these 1485 posts in Forex Factory. Good luck.
Remember you have a reading and comprehension problem which many of us already knew from reading your posts. You even misinterpreted that post #5 when Big E was replying to member named Divergence and you thought he was referring to technical Divergence used in trading. You have learn that using words search is very dangerous especially when you read selectively and try to teach new traders your piecemeal knowledge of what TMS 5-Method is .
If trading is simple and can be taught with just 1485 posts, you must be stupid to believe this.

Tekkies post#76,009 ... LOL.

Now, Tekkies you can try go back and read your own post 76009 again.

Yes of course, I agree that they do lag, however there are people here who trade this system and so have surely come up against this same issue. So I am looking for insight on what they have done when they encounter this issue.

Apply post#647 again.
- Zoom out
check the trend direction.
check for S/R level's close by
Zoom in again
- Bar
check if the previous bar's are big and not showing sign's of going smaller.
count how many bar's since cross over ( expect 3 to 8 bar after cross) So if green start to go flat at bar 3 then thread has run it course
- Wick
check the length's of wicks.
- top wick small - sellers are not push the price down
- bottom wick small - buyers not pushing price up
opposite apply for long wicks
- TDI level
how far is green from 32, 50, 68
- Stoch
Is stoch still showing the same direction or is stoch confused by making many small false directions.
(Take a peek at higher time frame or go down a time frame or two).

Don't do this, for you will be looking for reasons that will confirm your "greed" to stay longer in the trend.
Rather follow BigE's advice and get out. You can always re-enter on the bounce - post#557

You really feel the need to get the last drop of pips out of a order then read this post for some more background info. (one of many)

Wow, thank you so much Tekkies! I really appreciate the help because this gal here was a bit confused. Okay so I need to just be more careful to apply the structured rules that BigE stated. Also I do not have the stoch on my charts so I will add that. I think I may have went awry because it seems as though there were many different templates throughout this thread and perhaps I grabbed the wrong one.

Can you point me to the latest and greatest template I should be using? I did try the one that BigE had on page one but it didn't show anything on my mt4. I also believe that there are different versions of the heiken ashi candles too because even the ones I have now are different from one another. So I just want to make sure I have what I need to move forward properly.

It never stops...... the battle between those two annoying guys with too much ego......... I am getting sick of it and I am sure, I am not the only one! Fortunately, I rarely or never visit this forum, here are only for the most fortune hunters who want to get rich quickly and rarely or never do their best to really learn something. Personally, I find this method much too complicated with a lot of rules and all kinds of indicators. And there are too many variations on how to trade. One says this, the other says that............. Good luck everyone!
Keep it simple without too many crappy indicators!
