Let's face it, those post's about four years old.

"Look where all the TMS traders from between 2008 to 2011 are today"
No need to guess, they stopped posting in this tread because of you, and the constant needling / ridiculing of member's that do not agree with you.

As too Post#495.
If Iddd Post 103,057 or BigE Post 2 did not refreshed posted chart's why not.
Now you probably going to post "Hindsight trading"

If that is the case then why do you refer members to read all BigE's post's in this thread and Harris tread. In those post's BigE clearly state:
#6.... Important to study TDI entries on old charts, any time frame...
#11... The key to building confidence is to study old charts...
#309 ..... study old charts
#1412...... look at my posted charts and the ones on the old thread starting about page 264 to the end... study my charts there too... at: the Commercial Forum, thread "Craig Harris Stochastics Method." Start at page 264... not earlier...
But hey, you post so many contradictions, one more will not matter, as long as you can ridicule a member.

By the why, your "hindsight trading" remarks are just an excuse to divert the potential of what BigE has left behind to what you consider as relevant and current.
That is to say "Your way or the high way"

what is your purpose and financial plan goal for trading spot forex? I recall you talked about trading capital of $100,000 at one time.
Well the main purpose is to make money. The money is separated over two different brokers account, the one I am trading manually is about 60k at the moment and the main purpose here would be to achieve consistent profits by the end of a month I could then take out to pay some bills.

I do not look for compounding or making unrealistic returns. I try to achieve a 2-3% a month here, the last month was outstanding good but like said as I still struggle to find a clear routine and a strategy where entries at least are based on clear objective rules.

So far still a lot of the trades I do on this account are based on pure feelings and watching price action while still learning. I would like to find a better routine here which supports reaching such goals.

Why waste all your time drawing yellow lines on the history price bars/candles? this show that you are here to promote your M15H1 VLine method and you trendline method which is not Trading Made Simple by Big E.

lddd post charts using the TME 5-Method template and he pointed to the Daily chart candles and very clearly the previous Daily HA candles were red and below its 5EMA. The Daily HA PA and direction are both simple and very clear.

lddd marked his H4 chart candle with the red line,

H4
so see my comments looking at his H4 chart.
note the pullback candle PB (X-Man's thread).

then he move to his H1 chart,

see my comments on his H1 chart below:
Keep It Simple: trade what you see at the red line he marked. There is no need to draw all those yellow and blue lines on H1.

next he move to his M15 chart.

this M15 chart shows the details of the price action from that H4 PB candle up to the time of his H4 red line.

questions really is:
can he trade M15 after that H4 PB and ignores the M15 Stoch in OB region?
or
can he trade M15 after the H1 setup candle closed?

both the above would have been aggressive dynamic entries of TMS_V19
this is the 'art of trading TMS' by reconciling the price action seen in different timeframes.
one need to master the method and has developed the 'third eye' for trading TMS 5-Method.

{quote} Thanks for marking all the trade setups. As you know i do not trade the Daily Chart. I posted the Daily Chart for giving a clue about the longer term trend and wanted to know if my analyses of EUR/USD beeing in a down trend for the Daily Chart is correct. Now if that is correct i would need to know if entering those marked setups for H1 or M15 signals would be valid in regard to the ORIGINAL TMS rules, as this would mean clearly taking setups that are going against the primary trend right? regards.
hi lddd

my trading routine is quite simple. I learn this from member dcginc who taught many us through his free webinars and weekly TDA.

at the the beginning of the week, I would have done my weekend top down analysis WTDA of those currency pairs I have in my market watchlist.

next, at the start of each new trading day, I look at the Daily using the TMS 5-Method template. Look at the Price Action of the HA candles and the direction using the 5EMA Typical Price, Shift+3 ( or shift+2.. not much difference).

see my Daily chart below, that is NY Friday Apr 24 close.
the HA candles are below its 5EMA but Friday was a quite a strong pullback. Be prepared for further move up but there is the 5EMA just above and also a recent consolidation zone.

Weekly chart

W1 has a very big bar/candle 5 weeks ago and the recent 3 weeks are below the 5EMA.
The big W1 candle is what strat calls the Weekly Control Candle WCC and nothing tot do with Big E' TMS but WCC is useful informaiton to determine the market type conditions. This WCC has very wide range and I would trade within this range knowing the WCC High-Low can be the support & resistance too. H4 and D1 swing traders use this WCC High-Low information plus confluence with other support&resistance analysis.

My day trading hours for EURUSD is from Tokyo session 5th hour ( just after Tokyo lunch time or 'sushi time' ) till London session close. This will be set in my TMS_V19 active trading hours.
I'll post the TMS_V19 EA settings later in a separate post.

But looking at both the Weekly and Daily now, next week can be both buying and selling in M15 with tight Trade Management exit.

okay.

tell me which pair/s you have this problem and the TradePeriod of the alert.
I'll try trap the same pair/s AlertModeOnly = true setting next week.

I am quite sure those pop up messages are not from the EA if those messages are not saved in the EA log file.

Most of his chart's has them v-lines on every TDI cross over, it does not take a genie to draw trend lines.

Tekkies

it is your obsession with drawing VLine in your history chart ... you lost all sense of time.

stay focus and trade what your see ... you did not learn from Big E training charts ...

now go back and pay attention to lddd Post#102,351 there is only one over red vertical line he drew and the time 13:00 same 1300 time line on all his charts - D1, H4, H1 and M15. Stop wasting your time and drawing all the repainted TDI crosses in the history.

Now, be careful you are near the peak threshold again and your mental breakdown will soon happen.

Stay focus. Stop acting like a kid throwing tantrums in this thread.

Go and spend your time with your loved ones ... its weekend time !

Yes, Iddd and everyone else, pay attention to the exact words of Emmanuel7788 in that post: "my trading routine... I learned this from member dcginc."
Does he say, "BigE's trading routine that I learned from him and what TMS is all about"? Of course not. More of his trampling on the legacy of BigE.

Emmanuel7788 also likes POMO, going off on another subject that BigE never mentioned. (I did a search for POMO and the earliest hit was March, 2013, long after BigE moved on from this thread).

So instead of adhering to the wishes of BigE and REFRAINING from adding other things to TMS system, he hijacks the thread, abusing the simplicity that BigE used.

Other people that felt that TMS was a good BASIS for developing a system with other indicators and analyses did the right thing and opened a new thread and presented their ideas and indicators in that thread, showing respect for BigE and the TMS thread by not posting their non-TMS materials in theﹰTMS ﹰthread.

If some of you want to learn to use an EA, which BigE was vehemently against, why don't you simply open a new thread just for that instead of disrespecting BigE and posting that discussion here?

You want to use POMO in relation to TMS? GREAT! Go open a thread "Using POMO with TMS".

You want to use other indicators, WTDA, ETC., than what BigE posted? GREAT! Go open another thread!

Big E you can trade without 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.

#2617
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?
