two of my H4 10PM candle trades.
there are times when we wait for the 'perfect' setup conditions but they don't happen, so I make discretionary decision to take the trades as I see them.

A hell lot of other pairs are "flat" as well.

I am still trying to focus on just one currency pair, but it seems like its impossible to make money here with just one strategy like this one. Focus my look mainly on EU/GU for the last 2 weeks switching from M5 up to H1 to find possible VALID trade entries has been a pain.

I mostly end up taking trades which are not in any way according to the TMS rules, and i am out positive in most instances but like said... Its a pain.

If you move down lower to M5/M1 there would have been some more setups for sure but here you have to somehow filter out like a 9 out of 10 setups where price would have moved directly against you, hit your tight sl or wouldn´t be in balance with any reasonable RR.

Good find with AUD/NZD. Here you can at least see a clear up trending price with clean swings one following the other. But didn´t even had this pair on my watchlist.

Like said a few times already it looks almost impossible following only this one strategy where the setups probability is only given in strong trending markets, but if you only want to trade one market and this one just keeps fluctuating in a random fashion for days and weeks... Well...

A scalper here following TMS on EU or GU probably had like 90 losers out of 100 setups where 10 winners not even compensated the risk taken by 5 pips.

I do not agree. Not everyone learns the same way. Just because burning the midnight oil is not effective for one person does not mean it is not effective for another. Likewise for methods of practice.

What you, and many other posters, should do is preface your comments with something like, "For me, ..."

Correct. Everyone learns in their own way, at their own speed. There is no 'right' or 'wrong' way to learn.

First chart > No trade.
- Against Resistance (where price is now)
- Long wicks both side of candles
- Against long term trend ( starting at 5 May down)
- Don't see a short term trend
Second chart > No trade. Basically the same reason.

Walk away from both pairs.

well, both your EU and GU looks like the basic 5-Method buy setups according to Post#261.

are you the 'bottom feeders' type trader? look at toDay' key level for support.... some TMS M15 traders use the iSMADR! and look for the 'bounce' .

Glad to see some feedback from you not purely focusing on the TDI :-)

If you say „against the long term trend“ by giving the 5th May as the starting point, do i see it correct now that you look at the complete chart from left - right determining the 5th May to be the high following by a lower swing high on 6th not went lower on 7th May where price was sitting at time of the chart was posted and the signals after London open came in.

So if i get it right based on that information once having the trend direction „easily“ identified by just looking at the complete M15 chart (not counting single candles) you would by now only look out for possible TDI SELL signals for anything below M15.

Now look at where price is at that chart presenting you with M15 sell and buy signals, it would have been no difference going short or long you most likely got slaughtered by all these wicks up and down like you identified in hindsight now but now count all the SELL signals on that M15 Chart for EU 7th May? I see 4 short setups here at that incredible great TDI clock angle which didn’t last long, all of them would have been stopped out by the next 1-2 bull candle.

So 4 possible short signals (with the trend) where you would have slaughtered vs that buy signal against the pre dominating down trend you say

EUR/USD as by now

So what would have been your other filters/criteria to leave out all these losing setups for M15 where all the wicks just formed the range but that’s not what you can forecast, you would have gone short here right into the slaughterhouse following these TDI short signals?
