{quote} GBPUSD Week 34 Aug 20 to 24 I have one open basket from last week - 3 open sell positions in one basket. I will manage this basket this week and if the market become choppy, it can be closed with breakeven or a small loss which will eat some of my profits made so far in August. ($826 and 1184 pips, total 23 positions closed) Weekly Chart below: The market type changed as the price lost its downward momentum. It is range trading so we adapt our TMS trading strategy for range trading. We want to trade only the best setups and look for swing...
GBPUSD Week 34 Aug 20 H4 Double Bar Low Higher Close DBLHC

will show positive price momentum in the RSI, in this case using the TDI the Green will show a check mark.

Note the fake TDI Green cross Red in the previous red bar/HA candle.

With the 2nd chart, the 4 Hour with check mark, does that still show on your chart even now?

I don't see the green / red cross on the 1st chart in the mini-chart for 4 Hour

Perhaps the chart not refreshed; I think that used to be a debatable point, the old repainting issue!

What are the current thoughts on that?

I notice you use TDI from Post 25, that is based on the original genuine TYDI isn't it?

Thanks

Thanks for a summary of your trading approach. In regards to Sierra charts vs TradingView charts. Do you have any experience with TV to give an opinion on how it would rank against Sierra?

Hi Erebus,

My 2nd chart still show the TDI check mark when I do not refresh that chart. If I refresh that chart, it will show exactly like your chart.
This is the main issue for all traders learning from the OP's training charts which are all refreshed charts and when they tried to trade like him using the TDI angle 12-2 and 4-6, this is the root cause of the problem. That TDI from post#25 was the first version downloaded from the CompassFX (2006/2007)website. However, subsequent versions from the same website are different.

My 1st chart where I show the pipware multi-chart and that TDI version is using the setting of the new Synergy Pro_TDI. When I use this version , the TDI angle 12-2 and 4-6 is obsolete. I look at the Price Action of the price bar and the APB/HA candles.

Your chart shows both TDI after they are refreshed and both look exactly the same. But both TDI RT version also repaints several bars later. That can be seen usually after 13 bars but not so noticeable.

regards,

Here is an example with DE30 H1 price gap.
The traders who only trade TDI Green cross Red and traded BUY got lucky.

Learn to trade with Average Price

but first you must fall in love with the Average Price Bar APB/HA candles.

look at Weekly W1 and Daily D1, you only need to trade once a day, you decide which hour of your day you want to check you trading charts and place your first order.
If you choose to place an order on H1, then you have any 24 H1 candle time.
If you choose to place an order on H4, then you have 6 H4 candle time.

Soon you will learn that the TDI is nice to have but not necessary for you to make money.

GBPUSD Week 34 H4 still going strong after that DBLHC setup for CONTINUATION

you got your Entry, but your Exit will determine how much money you will make.

Now you ask yourself, what do you use for Exit?

1) When do you use Post#6?

2) When do you use Post#8449?

3) When do you use Post#10,736?

4) do you have another Exit strategy?

{quote} There are two main types of PA. Firstly, fast moving, driving PA, what EW'ers will refer to as a powerful 3rd wave... this kind of PA is often confined to a channel. The second style is of choppy action where there are many crossovers and retraces are deeper. I am a Supply/Demand trader, primarily... but i am still learning how to combine it together with my EW eye - not so much 'unlearning' as learning how to adapt and marry the two methods together. Sometimes it is necessary to blank that view and other times it is beneficial to use it.......

Hi Cable

Really,

So you think Sierra Charts is better than MT4

I agreed if your scalping forex and futures,
However above the 5 minute frame, it lacks a very very very important feature that allows traders to earn a "trading made easy" wage.


You need to know that I trade with both Sierra Charts and MT4 and I know which one earns me my most money by a mile and a half.
Not looking for a argument, just a discussion.
