Wow! you folks are working hard at the TDI saga while being 'lockdown' 'stay at home'.

what about follow the trading journey of the Op Big E and "stay with what Big E has posted" in Forex Factory with reference everything about the TDI?

Honestly on the 5 method you don't really need any indicators because the simple entry rules are so basic and clear cut. If I were to pick two it would be the tdi & stochs.



Jan 26, 2011
#3103
I almost always have the tdi & stoch on all my charts regardless of the method being used.

However, it's not necessary on the 5 method for me. It gives people more confidence when they have it on their charts it seems.... and it's a good confirmation to the current PA and possible trade.



Feb 12, 2011
#3418
You can trade the 5 method without the TDI if it's a problem...

PA is HA Candles, PA crosses the yellow line and closes... enter on the next candle if it's the same color. When candles flatten out... exit. Stay in the trade as long as it doesn't cross back over the yellow line and close.

The TDI just gives me a lot more information for making my entries & exits decisions.

2scoops asked me a long time ago what would be the most beneficial to learning this method for higher success... The answer was simple... study old charts for set ups... now strip down everything on that chart at that point... trends, angles, S/R levels, News times, Stoch angle within the 20-80 lines..etc. Burn it into your memory... I spent 2 years doing that.... so what does that mean?

It takes me 15 seconds to strip a chart down to nothing including the TDI & Stoch's. Taking clean trades is a breeze for me... why?

When I followed only Big E' posts here in Forex Factory, I have downloaded several different versions of the TDI at the time of his post. I spent 7 years trying every of these versions I had downloaded and also including the first original version from 2006 from Dean Malone CompassFX which is the TDI version in Post#25.

Doesn’t it get boring quoting a person who is not with us anymore to play out your agendas to your personal beliefs of what is right or wrong every new day?

Simple agree to disagree for god sake... Make some point; stop living in the past.

I guess none of you is making money with trading otherwise you probably would have better things to do with your time.

By the way all the EA charts suddenly here won’t help people with better trading results.

I would really recommend putting that talk in a separate topic so members who are interested in it or have questions to it can find it there.

You are fishing for the traffic here okay, but then at least stop posting so much of it. Yeez... I though filtering out TDI signals is a challenge, but filtering out all that non TMS related content posted here is a full time job on its own.

Going to take a break, lets see what’s up here next month. I bet a 5 bucks what ever time what ever day, there will be a quote taken by the OP to proof something wrong or right again.

TMS_V19 Q&A what is Trend 2/8 -TF- displayed on the screen?

EURUSD Apr 15

Using TMS_V19 EA as my trading tool, I have a clear and simple way to define what the Daily Trend is.

Today Apr 15 is bar 10.
Look at the price action of the last 9 days - bar no. 1 to 9.
Pay attention to bar 9 and bar 8, bar 9 is Bullish Engulfing Bar BUEB so today Apr 15 trading bias is BUY.
Market Type Condition is RANGING but its UP.

moved my initial SL to BE+ and today I will make a new decision since this was a H4 trade setup with M15 entry.
and the Daily looks good for CONTINUATION trading action so I follow my trading tasks according to my trade plan.

yesterdays' H4 rectracement was deep but did not invalidate my H4 setup.

EURUSD Week 16 Apr 15

with one position protected at BE+ and the H4 trend is still intact and also D1 PA is in harmony, I update my trade plan for this week' H4 swing trading.

I will look for M15 or also M5 setups to add-on buy entries but I space them out with a minimum 4 hours duration apart and a minimum pips distance between orders.
This is the Multiple Entries / Multiple Exist ME/ME for Advanced TMS Swing traders.

Note that,
the Trend 2/8 is H4
TDIC1 is H1
are still the same.

you can have another chart M5 for Alert Only setting if you look for M5 entries.

Practice doing this for a few months and when you have any questions, feel free to ask and I will be here to explain what I do to help everyone who wants to learn.

Hi Big Emm,

What could be the reason for the perpetual "Sleeping" indication on my chart. The TMS_V19 has not taken any trade on any of the 8 currency pairs, all on M5 time frame, for the past two days after its installation. I do not think that is quite normal. What could possibly have gone wrong?

hi piple

Better not address me as "Big Emm". This will get some people more upset with me than they already are.

Reserve that "Big " to the OP only.

That prolong "Sleeping" mode usually mean something in your installation is not right. Let me recall from my notes what I did in the past when I had similar problem.

You can first try a few of these:
1) reduce down the number of setting to false and set true only to the basic TMS rules.
2) Set the TDIC1 to a timeframe higher that your trading timeframe.
3) Set the News input to all false because the FFCal version is not working well.

I 'll get back later on this again.

Easy to explain.
For me > It was and is the only guideline to understand TMS and how to use TDI correctly in this thread.
For Emmanuel? I don't known. One post he refer reader's to use post#25 TDI and to read all BigE's post's.
The next post he beats the living daylight out of TDI and rip BigE's post's out of contexts.
Have come to the conclusion he is doing it on purpose.
Reason: Broker's are paying him to confuse reader's because broker's have realized that BigE's TMS will fill the wheelbarrow with pips.

If you are using one of those high resolution 4K display, try this:

close your platform ... then right click on the terminal.exe (or its shortcut)
go to > Properties > Compatibility tab > Check "Override high DPI ... " and scroll down to and select "System". Apply ... Then re-start your platform.
