You don't have to read all the posts. Just the old posts from Post#1 to Post#12,912 that is all what Trading Made Simple is and shall remain for very long time.
Post #12,912 was October 24, 2011. ALL of your posts of 2012 and later are not needed, by your own admission. They just add to the clutter and confusion.

Introduction to Trading Made System

To learn what Trading Made Simple is, you have to follow the trading journey of the OP eelfranz aka Big E. He started as a newbie in 2008. Know the history and you will learn a lot from the OP and you can then move on and develop your own trading system following how he did his.

try this,

Here is a quick introduction to this Trading Made Simple thread:
Trading Made Simple for beginners : Post#52,707

A short history by pioneer member snarlyjack Post#110

Our late OP eelfranz aka Big E spent 6,000 hours: Post#6 and he evolved as a trader and went on and developed two trading methods.
5-Method and 21/233 Method Post#3018, Post#4104,

After months of postings and answering many frequently asked questions FAQs,
eelfranz made the jump to this new Trading Made Simple thread on 26 April 2011... Post#4432

In Post#1, he explained how he traded the H4 chart timeframe and he also traded the H1 chart during the NY session. This suited his lifestyle being retired and the time zone he lived. Sadly he passed away in Oct 2012.

Two very important posts: Post#261 and Post#647, give a simple summary of what this 5-Method is and the basic forex stuff we check before we look for the TDI setups to trade.

TMS 5-Method Basic Rules: Post#53,841
Always check the #1- Price Action first, then #2- TDI Post#3142
Big E wanted us to build this TMS thread together... Post#4,432

The original indicators and template Post#25
If you are overwhelmed (information overload) by the number of posts and the loads of information and variations shared by other traders here, the best thing to do is to stop reading and go back to the basics what Big E mentioned in his 463 posts in this thread and 861 posts in the CHS thread. First you learn and master the 5-Method first before you start add your own tweaks and create your own system.

Recommendations:
Read all of Big E posts... 861posts in the Craig Harris Stochastics thread and 463 posts in this TMS thread....and make notes on those training charts he posted. Pay attention whenever he mentioned PA and what you see on his training charts.

Learn the basic stuff about forex trading first. A good place to start is www.babypips.com/school

If you want to trade the way Big E described in Post#1, make sure you use his template , the Synergy APB / HA candles and use that TDI Red Green version. These are in Post#25.

Note that the TDI Red Green version repaints all the bars in history so you cannot use this when you do back-testing by scrolling back your charts. The better way is to run this in live market and trade the TMS setups based on what you see without refreshing your charts. When you want to trade with entries on the APB#1 and APB#2 candles, always wait for the price bar/candle to close and use the TDI to confirm the setup.

Enjoy and Have fun during your learn to trade journey.

{quote} yes Tekkies Trade without the TDI, well that's for me too after I have mastered his 5-Method and have achieved consistency for 5 years now. More than 10 years trading COWABUNGA system did help a lot with understanding the Stoch and RSI. You are still a newbie and it would be important for you to learn the basic forex stuff and following Post#647 as your checklist. I learned and practiced Post#261 for years and I know what I am looking for in a trade setup. RSI(3) crossing its 50-level is much clearer and also easy for newbies over picking...
Didn't know that you trade the COWABUNGA system for 10 years ! That's a great system .

{quote} Can't help to laugh Emmanuel. Last year when I posted only DE30 chart's almost all your chart's was DE30. Post 99,424, Post 99,505 only two of many. Now suddenly you post 8 chart's. ----- Anyway, I had enough fun with you today. Until next time Emmanuel. In the mean time, try and keep your post's in line with what BigE has posted.

{quote} hey Tekkies that stuff which your are smoking can also make you laugh foolishly. I have more than 8 pairs. I have 20 pairs and the 8 pairs are the common ones which Big E traded during his time. I have added more pairs last year and have now 25 pairs which I would pick only 5 pairs to trade each week. I also re-started my trading indices last year after completing a CME training course. Since you were posting DE30, I can also post since I am trading DAX, NASDAQ, SP500 and DOW. If there is more interest I can share my trades too. What makes you think only a newbie like you can trade DE30 in this TMS thread? We all have our good laughs today with your silly posts and the entertainment your provide us in this comedy thread. We look forward to the next round soon. Fun having you around otherwise trading can be very boring. Likewise, make sure you post using Big E chart templates and not your TDI RG VLine gimmick nonsense. I will be here and help traders so that they do not fall into your trap and lose their money quicker.
So after all the bullshit and nonsense , both of you do get along , both of you make my day mate Oh ya , I forget our DR DAVEEE too . Anyway cheers and happy harvesting pips

It is a virus that is spreading, to many country's are involved.
Don't forget history, two extreme case.

a Disaster like a earth quake (Japan), bush fire (Australia), hurricane (USA) is local, effecting the market for that country.
This one is different, if it does not get contained the whole world is at stack.

COWABUNGA is a good system long before TMS and with few daily signals but high win rate.

Interesting first day Feb 03 when the UK is officially out of the EU.
We still have the full 11 months until end Dec 2020 , every day would be full of surprises with BoJo leading the negotiations.

Nice day trading profits for those who sold GBP crosses.
