{quote} Hi Here is what the results looks like trading H4 mostly the 10PM, 2AM and 6AM candle time according to Post#1. I manually open some trades during the morning Tokyo session (TOK_5H) and some turned out good. Not many setups in the 8 pairs by TMS_V19 becasue my setup condition is the TDI price line green line must be greater than value =>4 and I also pick only CandlePattern#2 reversals with Stochastic value => 5.0 , these filters out many setups which turned out to be good trades. {image}

5-Method and 21/233 Method Post#3018, Post#4104,

the 21/233 Method will allow you to trade with multiple entries.


for 123 , I learn that from TheCableguy and Divergence in this thread "Plan the Trade".

TMS_V19 Week 21 May 18

TMS Traders make the DISCRETIONARY decision and not leave that to the EA.

starting today, I decided to be Seller=True

Your TMS_V19 EA trading chart will look like this below. You do not need to load all the indicators the EA uses for its internal calculations.

BUT, if you want to see what the EA sees, then you can load them indicators on the chart you trade.
When you see something for example there is a trade setup which your like to trade and the EA did not, then you as the TMS trader do the right thing and make your own DISCRETIONARY decision. The same when you are in a trade and would like to manage manually, you can overwrite the EA. You can add-on more positions and manage all your open positions in one basket.

Be that rule-based discretionary trader like the OP Big E. Post#103,393

Therefore, when I post in this thread I'll post with all them indicators so that you can also see what I see.

Reading Post 104,171 it seems that Emmanuel has come to realize that the TDI is in the winning edge equation.

How long emmanuel will stay on track will now depend on: Will V_19 live up to expectation.

Hi Folks,

Tekkies is having another sleepless night and posting at 3am his local time. Poor pathetic soul.

Tekkies' question: "Will TMS_V19 live up to expectation."?

That depends on what Tekkies expectation is. If Tekkies expects TMS_V19 to have a win rate of 85% to 90%, then TMS_V19 would be lying the same like Tekkies did in his Post# 71,385
Quoting Tekkies
TDI for me is the Holy Grail. My win rate is about 85 - 90% with with all rules applied. ...
Grow UP! Tekkies. Get a life , get some sleep and your mind would be well rested and ready for trading when the European markets open.

TMS_V19

I keep getting PMs that the CandleStickTrailingStop CSTSL is not working the way I have explained and shown in my posts.

One reason is some of you downloaded older version of V19 from that SteveHopwood thread. Another reason is some of you downloaded old set files from that thread which are not for V19. Many of those set files are for older versions before V19. Some of the set files are meant for the other version V20, V21 and V22. You simply need to sort these out and be clear what you are doing.

go to these links and download the TMS_V19 manual and the V19 version which an running now.

download this V19 version here:

You also need these indicators in your MT4 folder in order for that the V19 EA to work correctly.

WRONG again! when you read my post Post 104,171.

I came to the conclusion that the TDI is in the winning edge equation when I read these OP posts link below:

I was curious so I continue my search for the Holy Grail. I went to to develop my trading systems using proven Money Management strategy. Then I develop my Mental Strategies with regular sessions with my mentors since March 2011.

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.

May 16, 2011

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?

Don't get fired ! Just make the necessary transition to trading 4hr charts during the London session... or Daily charts.

Don't get euphoric when you have a few profitable days/ weeks trading M15 and H1. You need to achieve CONSISTENCY over a longer period of trading TMS. I look at 12 to 36 months and depends on how many pairs you trade, that can be anything from 1,000 to 3,000 trades.

To be in this business for the long haul, I did exactly the same what the OP wrote in his Post#281. I moved on to swing trading on H4 and now mostly medium term swing trading on Daily. My trading results were goos swing trading H4 and you will find my posts between 2015 and 2017. Since 2018, I moved on to medium term swing trading on Daily and my business cycle is 3 years, 2018 to 2020... still running.

Now I plan my next 3-years cycle (36 months)... 2021 to 2023.

My point is: Do Not look for quick results and short term gains. You need to have clear financial goals and know what you have in your trading arsenal to help you achieve your financial goals.

Trading Made Simple' 5-Method is a simple and elegant technical trading methodology which you can consider to use as your core trading methodology. You need to use that and develop your winning systems that fits you and to be able to trade in different market types.

Yes Emmanuel, you love to post "strip a chart down to nothing including the TDI & Stoch's."
- Everyday you post chart's with TDI + Stoch on them.
- Started to use an Expert Advisor (that needs TDI to function) to help you to trade.
- Every time a newbie ask where to start, you advice them to study all BigE's posts and his chart's (TDI and Stoch are on them)
- You even posted that TDI based indicator like TMS monitor is a favored.

That makes you liar, every single post by you, reader's will have to ask themselves:
- Is this man trustworthy?
- He is lying about removing TDI / Stoch from chart's, is he lying in this post?

Reader's only have to read Post 96,001 to realize how dangerously deceptive your post's are.
