@Tekkies

What is basing?

This thread is about trading the OP's 5-Method and about making money.

The TDI is no holy grail indicator, never was during Big E trading days and never will be, not now and not in the future.

The TDI is just another technical oscillator using the RSI data. It simply shows the momentum of the price and by calculating the moving averages of different RSI periods. Nothing more nothing less. It is consider to be lagging the price because it waits for the RSI data and for it Close Price.

You keep repeating use of Post#647 because that post is very vague and subject to many different interpretations. You are a just another newbie with no proven trading records here in FF since the time you started posting in this thread in 2016 till now. Only 3 years and you are treating people reading this thread like they are fools and they should believe you with all your false claims about being profitable and trading for a living financial independence, freedom etc. Cut your bullshit and show us that you are trading TMS 5-Method and post your charts following Post#261 rules and its corresponding template.
Post#647 does not confirm any TDI crossover. Post#647 is price action trading with support and resistance, basic forex stuff and that is what the OP said.
You use Post#647 as your disclaimer when trades go wrong.

This is not my thread and also not your thread. Just post your charts following the OP's Post#261 and use the correct template with the HA candles and the 5EMA.

stay tuned!

That green bounce red on H1 had caused great concern. Last trade of the day. If the market goes down good, if not to bad, tomorrow I will follow TDI with M15H1 again.
Support level held that sell order back. With H1 angle below 5 it should not have taken an hour for TDI to break that level.

Edit: 5EMA
Use it or lose it.
- Post 1,240
Training Chart - E/J 1hr. - 6am entry... and yes it's ok to enter under the 5ema...
- Post 718,
At one time I used the 5ema in a different way. Back then if a candle closed across the 5ema it was the set up candle. I would enter the trade at the beginning of the next candle if it was the same color.... and that still works... this is more conservative...

I am more aggressive now and noticed I was giving up some pips doing it that way so I changed to using the TDI candle #1 or 2 for entries.

I left it on my chart because I like to see how PA interacts with the 5ema line during the trade. Gives me a better feel for what's going on... that's mainly the reason...

Hi Cj

Good you got that! But I forgot to mention that when I trade the Weekly chart, I also check the Weekly average traded range of the 52 weeks. Use this s a guide to set your TP.

Today I got lucky. The spike went down first and my limit orders get filled adding more positions into the basket. What if the spike went up instead?

Now with some money on the table, I will sweep back to my bank.... Lotto Model.

Well, next time when you quote Big E' post use some recent chart examples like your favourite DE30 and explain Post#1240

EXAMPLE where you find a setup candle below the 5EMA,

Its a reversal candle mentioned in Post#261. Pay attention to reversal candles . Big E explained that with many examples in his old thread.

Hi Yudax


About the TDI ...

The TDI indicator has 4 official updates by its creator Dean Malone between 2006 and 2011.
The one used by Big E was an earlier version which he subscribed to CompassFX in 2006/2007.
You must use his version TDI Red Green (post#25) when you trade TMS 5-Method following his rules posted in this thread. That TDI version has unique features which Big E knew and this is key reason why he kept on using that version even after he got the latest version in 2011.

There are the other 3 versions.
The second version also downloaded from the CompassFX website is a Realtime version which the other TMS traders like LE1 and X-Man use in their threads.
Note: both LE1 and X-Man are price action traders and to them, PA is king.

LE1 thread link:
https://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=345586

X-Man thread link:
https://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=327972

The 3rd version was known as Fast-TDI in the Advance Synergy System.

Other traders moved on to use the latest 4th version - Synergy Pro TDI which has more new features.

I prefer the TDI Realtime version with the Pro TDI settings for my swing trading on Daily and Weekly, it help me ride the trend longer and I don't use it for my trade exit strategy. There is better and more profitable exit strategy than using the TDI.

Overall it has been 12 years since I have known the Traders Dynamic Index which is basically a variation of the Fozzy-RSI.

Hope this is useful information.

I totally agree with you. For sellers, it's too early to sell, for buyer it's too late to buy. Buyer still can catch the train if we have a retracement in range 110.200-110.400 and aim for 111.000 and a clear bull signal at this zone. For me, I will wait and see price action at orange zone.

I prefer to use the TDI Pro setting when I analyse my charts for trade opportunities. I look at the price bar OHLC with its APB/HA candle in background to see the real price momentum. Big E preferred to look at his TDI version angle 12-2 and 4-6 clock face.

Tokyo traders finished their sushi hour and now we are waiting for Frankfurt to open then London to open and later Tokyo to close. The real fun is usually after Tokyo closed. Will today be any different?

right now, H1 looks toppisch and H4 is in consolidation.

Couple of post back you said I am a newbie trader, advice me to go to BabyPips to learn Forex. Now you want a newbie to "share" to you a trader (with a proven track record of 30 years) a back-testing chart.
--------
Nacho is back testing. I don't trust TDI in back testing due to the fact that some TDI's repaints certain past crossover's. What TDI version is Nacho using?
--------
a Quick glance with the little info on that chart:
- Angle of green is or maybe above 2.
When you are unsure about the angle > walk away.
- Can not see to the left of the chart for historical data so this might be wrong: Why place a buy order against a Resistance line?
