I have been away for a while on different threads to gain a wider view since September. These last two weeks I have been coming back daily to TMS. Again I realise that the knowledge, wisdom and examples Emmanuel gives makes him (for me) one of the very best here on FF. Coming back to TMS (without TDI) takes on a new meaning. Long may you continue Emmanuel. Your very much appreciated!

Good for you nigpig. There is no harm reading and learning from other threads. There are a few good men.

As I have been saying this for many years. Read everything which Big E has posted since 2008 and you will learn a lot from his posts, his vast knowledge that he accumulated over 6,000 hours and from that 2 years - 2008 till 2010 in his old thread. When you have digested what he shared and learned how he picked only the best setups, and you do the same with strict discipline, you will have the chance to succeed. The rest is money management and your mental fitness to stay in this business.

FOLLOW the trading journey of eelfranz aka Big E here in FF, that is your chance to learn from an honest man.

Hi All, A new fellow Forex Newbie! I'm so glad I stumble across this thread! Apologies in advance, if someone has answered my question below. Where do I find the template to MetaTrader? How do you use it?! A bit about myself - Currently, I am 18 years old and determined to make it through Forex! Sick and tired of going to Forex workshops to network with people, but it ends up being a sales pitch - I would really appreciate to hear some of your stories (as motivation) and find myself some mentors. Right now - I am building a solid forex knowledge...

Trading is based on perception. What I see in the price bars is different probably from others. I like to read each person's ideas and check that against my own views as other people may have better vision than I. The only thing we can measure is our own results.

you use voty channel on D1 chart, that will be simple trading.

Hello Dear valuable members,

It might not be the right time for me to post here. I wish if we all unite and concentrate on setups with PA explanation. Respects for every one.

I am familiar to some extent with the TDI indicator but have not practised this thread's system the way it is shown in the first few pages. Tributes to the starter of this thread years ago. May he rest in peace. Amen.

------------------

Any way, yesterday the market had low volatility and I was experimenting with TMS.



EURUSD : Green Vertical Line is London Open --------Blue Vertical Line is Short Entry

In EURUSD, which I did not trade, I was observing a possible break out on the Daily chart but was not expecting a breakthrough because of the market news.

On H4, I wanted to see a correction or a retest to S/R and it did show with the TDI Bearish Cross (the candle before the blue vertical line). Also Stochastics was crossing under the 80 level (not visible in the pic).

It is interesting to use such a system in low volatility markets and still make decent pips.

I know that the creator of the thread had in mind generating more pips from H4 charts (up to 60-100 pips or so) and might not have traded such low volatility.
But for me it was interesting to find one can still trade at any time.

Hope those charts help anyone reading this thread.

Good approach, looking at D1, you know what the market type you will be trading. Looking at H4 for setup and looking at M15 for fine-tuning an entry...

we never known what the market would do next and the depth of the correction. Big E has one rule i.e. when the market move in his favour and pulls bacl 15 to 20 pips, he would close his trade. He would not wait for the H4 candle to close. He has good reason managing his trade that way.

that's knowledge and experience .

@Tekkies,

Stop lying.

1) You don't trade TMS when you removed the HA and 5EMA. Removing these two key components simply show you did not understand how Big E used the HA candles and the 5EMA. He removed the TDI and for him taking trades using price action was a breeze.

2) You are not profitable.

3) You are also not consistent in your trading.

LOL. Today: Post 92,981 Contradicting Post 92,960 these two posts do not contradict each other. Its all in your very biased mind when you don;t understand what you read. You have a flawed keep it simple belief.

LOL... that you mention old timers' post. There are many more. Go and dig up some more in the Recycle Bin.

After 7 years trading since Big E died in 2012, I can say I have developed a lot more than he was at that point in 2011. 7 years experience is thousand of hours. I am better trader now than 7 years ago. No need for me to compare if I am better or Big E was better. What is important is that I worked hard to achieve CONSISTENCY.

If you are such a better trader Emmanuel why have you not started your own thread? This thread is a hinder to your vast exceptional experience because post#1 sort of force you to post chart's with BigE's TMS template. That alone musk your true potential because you can not post any chart's in violation of your own posts like this one: "Start posting trades charts using the same chart templates like the OP"
After all you said that you have removed TDI from your chart's.

You say BigE has removed TDI based on how you have read one post.
BigE posted Post 2,617 on 15 May 2011. Not one post after that post did he every again mentioned anything to remove TDI from any chart.
Can you do any of the following to proof your statement.
- Show a chart where BigE did not used TDI to enter a trade.
- Show a post where BigE tell members to remove TDI from all chart's after Post 2,617

Hi jmn
It is what he said in the beginning of the video that I find similarity.
- Every time I enter a trade the market switch direction on me.
- Price is never right it is seeking always the right price.
- History does not repeat it self.
- How the so called guru's mislead member's and you get married to those lies.
- Price can only go two direction up / down
- Above the 20EMA the trend is up / below 20EMA the trend is down.
- Trade in the direction of the D1 candle.
- Trading is simple

After I listened to those first 25 min it opened my mind to see the crap what members post in this thread and elsewhere.

{quote} You are being silly to interpret the way one word 'simple' was used. It is fact seen on my chart comparing the Stochastics and the TDI, both shows the same things but the slope of the Stochastics was better ... steeper than the TDI Green. But what if when both the Stochastics and TDI Green slope are the same ... steep at 1o'clock ? Would that be better and a way to filter what a 'best' reversal setup would be? Use your brain and think. Do not limit to just what the OP written in the past. Do not just see what he wanted you to see.
One of the BigE posts in the Craig Harris Stochastic method - BigE compares the use of the Stochastic and TDI - not sure which one exactly. Especially > 80 and < 20 and how the Stochastic can go flat in these areas but the TDI can continue to show strong momentum - potentially keeping you in the trade longer.

One of the things he mentioned was the use of Stoch as only means of direction. If the Stochastic was turning over (not crossed), but the TDI had a strong Angle - would you not take the trade (given other parameters are favourable)?

Honourable Ladies and Gents

I was very reluctant to write this post as I do not know any one here and I have not been the greatest participant in FF. I am writing this post for the sake of passion or call it the obsession I have with trading. There is nothing more exciting than improving my skills in trading and learning from more advanced traders and also teaching others who are less experienced than me. This whole business is one of the beauties of life. So please do not hate me for this post.

----------------

There are couple of great systems in FF (in addition to this great one) that you count them on your fingers. Two of them include Genesis Matrix system and the other one THV system.
I will comment on these two

Both systems were created by great traders who had the passion to teach others and share their experiences without any commercial interest. The goodness they gave to others returned back to them with big profits in both wealth and appreciation.

Genesis Matrix system ended because of the latest posts that included irrelevant indicators to the original system which turned the creator of the thread to be very upset and stopped posting any more. Some traders were adding 200 EMA,; others felt that the 55 is more important. Then there was a debate about which MA on which time frame and this continued on and on. This great system died afterwards.

THV system is still alive but all the recent posts have nothing to do with the system. There are posts about harmonics, PA patterns, etc... There is nothing wrong about that but the system itself with its components have been stripped out. I kept posting there many times trying to revive it but did not succeed. The creator and his big dedicated team have done their job to the max. But there is no one now to continue the mission. It turned to a "No System".

Any great system had great traders to create them and great professional members who would carry on the mission i.e (teaching others and improving their skills). I believe that giving is the most rewarding thing. When I myself try to explain the very simple stuff I know to struggling beginners, I feel I am getting better in my trading and feel happy about myself.

A great trading system is about the disciples who decide to carry on.

In short:
I want to see this thread alive for the next 10 years by its dedicated disciples. I am sure that if two or three of these dedicated members joined their hands in pinpointing the right setups and explaining to others why, this thread will last for years and years to come.

We all know that any system works because of the experience of analysing the PA and then pinpointing the entry by a system after meeting certain conditions. This overall PA analysis is what most of the struggling traders are missing. The presence of experienced traders like the ones here is the most important thing to correct and direct others in reading the market.

Whoever who feels he is right more than the other should try to rein in him/her self and think of the bigger goal (keeping this system alive and fruitful, and teach others how to trade). If you start by yourself you will be a great person. It is difficult but this is why you will be great.


Please distant yourself from criticising each other. The thread will fall apart very soon.

NB: I myself have been trading for long and I am adding few tips from great systems to my armour. What I like about this simple TMS system is the idea of milking the market and trading the mini and micro waves within bigger waves. In most of the time each HTF candle/s or PA presents an opportunity to trade on LTFs.

For beginners, this system will give you the opportunity to practise a lot because your job is to filter out the right ones which will be many.

Respectfully and Sincerely,
yours,
