The worst part is that he truly does not know what he does not know. He pulls an Ichimoku chart and then asks how to trade a clearly obvious raging bull trend. Maybe he was already drunk by then, who knows? Anyways, a point comes when it is time to just let his body of work speak for itself.

Thanks. TMS is a great launching point for traders, that is what the OP wanted it to be. I am sure old Chenzo will hurl a couple of insults, post a picture of a car he wishes he had, post a picture of liquor he wishes he was drinking, and then post some pics of a woman he wishes he was.....acquainted with. These types come and go in the Factory.

Jelousy is written all over this post. We get it. You never had money at 35. You were never a successful trader or had a Mercedes at my age. Don’t worry. Your son won’t either. Broke poor minds always stay alike. My son will be better than me in every way. This thread or the crap I talk has nothing to do with my personal life. I just like messing with you internet warriorrs because I can. Don’t hate. I’m living the life. Hopefully someone else is as well. Successful people like seeing other people be as well.

Hi PayIfForward

We talked last week about your EA, may I ask you if it follows exactly Big E's rules or have you twigged the system slightly. As I made you aware, my first attempt was only showing small profits so I stopped the development. I am willing to have another crack if you can let me know if your yearly results shows good profitability with no more than a 10% drawback.
A thumbs up will do

Jealousy?
How do you know:
- he did not had any money at 35?
- not a successful trader?
- type of vehicle he had at your age?
- ever met his son to assess his future probability to become a success?
- doubt you son will be better than you (the father lead by example - by what you have posted not one I wish for any child to follow)
Then you flap your lips about personal life, messing around, hate, living.
There is a lot of wisdom in this: "if your heart is full of evil, your words will show it"
Boy oh boy your post's surely show that: photo with obscene gesture, insulting members, self boosting...........
You can post you like to mess with the internet warriors that's ok. The more you post the more you confirm to member's that the life you lead with lots of money, nice car's, cabinet full with liquor, profitable forex method is lacking substance, filled with emptiness.

What happens after "launching point" has been past. How do you advance forward?
Can / starting to recognize set ups with a glance. (sometimes or rather many times I still fool myself)
Remove TDI from chart and I will blow my account in one day. To me the crossover is a anchor from which I can "plot" some sense on to the market.
Please don't tell me to go to a naked chart and use price action. Post#647 is already PA. money management, risk assessment know (think i know) that.

With all the negative s--t flying around, I just wanted to thank the people who continue to support this site. I'm sure Big E must be smiling.

I primarily trade portfolio EAs (hundreds at a time) -- I'm a big fan of "Forex Strategy Builder". I'm forcing myself to follow Big E's instructions and have had moderate success trading 16 pairs the past two weeks -- I definitely see the potential. I still prefer algorithmic trading (partly since I like coding and generating EAs), but manual trading adds another dimension to my trading experience. It also forces me to look more closely at the data.

So, again, I appreciate you keeping this thread alive.

Late entry by 10 min on M15.
- H1 green has confirm direction with stoch
- H1 will cross over in 19 min by what the green angle is showing.
- Green angle on both charts are below 4
- Against short and long term trend
- Candle does not say much
- Wicks not helping either
- S/R levels are not close by
- Consolidation / Accumulation is also missing.

Clearly English is not your first language! ... Jealous?
And then I see your post where you are clearly drunk (1/2 bottle of some drink) and driving.
I do not agree with most, if not all of your posts, BUT to post that (whether it be for fun in your eyes or not) is clearly totally irresponsible to the extreme.
In my opinion you have serious problems, your attraction to the superficial, your posting of clearly poor decisions (driving intoxicated), your inability to appreciate life (yours and the lives of others on the road), your inability to appreciate quality (drinking 1/2 bottle of McCallan Rare ... is no different to drinking 1/2 bottle of crap scotch) ... you are intoxicated and a danger ... Mercedes or not ... it is NOT all about you!
I know you don't care about anyone here but take a moment to consider your wife and or family ... try to stop this behaviour ... you have deep psychological and or financial problems, address them before they cost you everything you hold dear in your life.
And get your airbag checked before it's too late.
I won't be responding to your posts again ... life is precious (yours and those of others) ... take care

Always the same reason to enter a trade (much better this time).
BE has been locked in.
- green angle much better
- M15 has a better double top
- H1 bar's have better definition to them - small to big
- H1 wicks are pushing price down
- Again stoch confirm direction
- Time of enter also better. 2 min before new M15 bar. Would have prefered that H1 also be closer to the hour like 5 to 10 min before new bar.
Only part that is unsure is will NY open push price more down or play havoc again with a nice little spike to take out any stop loss.

Edit: Love this game. BE got taken out.
- Do not enter a trade on bar 3 after crossover. Now that is for H1. M15 was correct entry.
My mistake to activate BE to soon. (Afraid to lose profit again after this morning's bad judgment.)

You will begin to recognize the PA that causes the TDI to move in the way you are looking for to take an entry. I would not tell you to trade naked if you need the visual cue from the TDI to take an action. Nothing wrong with that at all. I just eventually started taking my cues to take action from the shapes of the bars themselves. You have already dropped the HA overlay, so you are in fact on your way.

Welp, not much to say about this one. This pics and it's caption pretty much says it all. A pint of alcohol in the body sitting in a low level Benz. You boast about cars the same way you boast about pips. If you are going to boast about a car from Benz, at least do so from the back of a Maybach or something. Were you poor as a kid? You have been here since 2006 and you are STILL trolling this site?

Something that helps with the tall bar issue is pass on the crossover and wait for the bounce trade. A lot of times those tall bars will have a 50% pull back as some traders will take profit when they see a stall.

I had an observation to share, followed by a few questions. I'm wondering if anyone else has a similar experience and, if so, could share their insight(s).

I'm new to TMS and have been trading 16 pairs on the H4 time frame. I try to follow Big E's rules and treat all pairs the same. However, I've noticed I have better luck with certain pairs (compared to others). I suspect this has to do with "volatility". I understand lower time frames will have more peaks and troughs. My questions below concern using TMS on the H4 time frame:

1. Have others seen that TMS seems to work better with certain pairs, compared with others?
2. If so, do you think this has to do with volatility?
3. And, if this is related to volatility, do you think volatility works for you or against you when trading the TMS system?

Thanks...
