{quote} KennethYang, when you had that red HA bar close inside PAC and TDI either green x red or very close to doing it, that was your clue to go check H1 and look for sell entries only.
Yes!
I did +10 pips on GBP/JPY on LO.

Thanks!

Excellent! It's looking like that in just a few weeks, you will far surpass the FakeTrader's dismal BEGINNER'S rate of 65% that he FINALLY can maintain with a lot of HARD WORK after EIGHT YEARS (or more) or trying to follow TMS!

Hmmm, maybe you are doing so well because you KEEP IT SIMPLE!
Quoting eelfranz
Starting out you should be 60-65% successful. Within 1 to two months you should be 70-80% successful.. IF... you follow the simple rules and simple exits...
Your Indicators

  1. Heiken-Ashi bars
  2. Price Action Channel
  3. TDI

Looks like you don't need all those other things like MACDcloud, BEOB, BEUB, Power of 10, Arjun candles, popguns, master candle, WRB, WCC, and an EA to think for you, and on and on... WOW! I can already imagine peoples' heads spinning just thinking about all of that added confusion! Really, it's no surprise at all with all of the complication and confusion that the FakeTrader piles onto himself that he just can't get beyond BEGINNER level, whereas you, as a beginner with TMS, is likely already AHEAD of that poor loser.

Wonder why Emmanuel use MACDcloud, is it not the same guy that posted Price Action Price Action............?
Say one thing and do other thing.
Compare the entry of trades against the color of MACDcloud, qty of bars after crossover
- first trade green + green, eight candle after crossover (Cloud 4570), fourth bar (Cloud 940)
- second trade green + purple, third candle after crossover (Cloud 4570), no cross (Cloud 940)
Indication that trades were placed randomly or MACDcloud is on the chart for smoke and mirror or a totale different entry rules was used.
Also looking at second entery:
- there is a blue dotted line coming down, no visible close arrow.
- the same blue dotted line goes up with a start and close arrow.

Now with this type of posting you have to ask: WTF is going on?

Just part of his erratic misapplication of simple rules. It's pieces of his FAILURE PUZZLE that he is putting in place to display how he has managed to reach the BEGINNERS LEVEL of TMS--60-65%--after 8 (or more) years of trying to grasp TMS and through lots of HARD WORK to maintain that average over 3 years.

Really, he needs to make the WIN-WIN decision suggested by vinicio and BAN HIMSELF FROM THIS THREAD. No need for him to present anything else, because HE himself already stated clearly,

Good questions ...
Unless you have mastered trading and you cannot be making money consistently, please keep your questions coming , keep on doing demo trades in real-time live markets.

Doesn't mean you look at my chart that you know how I trade. That's the stupidity of it criticizing something you are clueless about.
Like the Op Big E said at one time, No.1 importance is the Price Action, No.2 is the price oscillator in my case the TDI cloud which I look at the level of the colour change. No need for green line angle anymore. MT5 does this nicely with better features.

That is not retail spot forex where bulls make money, bears make money buy you get slaughtered day-in day-out like pigs.
That is NASDAQ E-Mini Futures trading using netting positions.

You can go to this website and get some proper education how to trade E-Mini Futures.
https://www.ampfutures.com/education/

Remember this Joe Ross TTE and how to trade price action 1-2-3 and Rh. Learn that and train your eyes to see them in real-time live market. It is easy when you use you brain.

GBPJPY Jul 08 H4 2AM PDT This H4 reversal setup also look good ... The RSI green price line slope is <2.0, the Stoch slope <3.0 between 80 and 20 , and the PA is below the 5EMA ... except that the Weekly is sideways and more to the upside. I would give such setups a miss now. {image}

GBPJPY Jul 08 H4 2AM PDT

No trade also mean you are winner! You preserve trading capital and use your trading capital for other trades.

That was the right decision not to sell the 2AM PDT candle. Must learn to use oscillators like the Stoch and RSI which the TDI calculates it greed, red and yellow lines. The angle/slope mean nothing when you do not know the market conditions well and how to apply Post#647.

See this GBPUSD H4 chart below. H4 is narrow range consolidation with a H4 Master Candle and small candles... Wait for a breakout potential! W1 and D1 will give a clue to pick a possible direction (Plan A). However, should that fails, then you need a Plan B.

Post#647
a few key points in this
How close am I to the previous high or lo
Am I in an uptrend or downtrend.. short & long term...
Am I in or close to a consolidation area
Are the previous candles small...
Look at the candles on the last reversal... big, little, what

I have done my weekend homework ... Weekly Top Down Analysis WTDA and with technical study done using Post#647.
and defining big candles, small candles, using these price action -
"INSIDE BARS", "POP GUNS", "ENGULFING CANDLES" , "MASTER CANDLE", "MOTHER BAR", DOUBLE INSIDE BARS, "BUEB/BEEB", BUOB/BEOB", "WRB", "WCC", etc.
I can make trade decisions easier , I know where the previous high - low, I know where the consolidation area is, I see small candles as Inside Bars, I see momentum candle as either Engulfing and Outside Bars, etc.

This is my approach - tested and proven since 2012 till now 2020 with more than 5,000 trades completed. I pick only the best setups and trade with oscillators like the Stochastisc and RSI. But I also missed many trades with this approach....

DAX Jul 09 Trading the Daily

If you do not like what I use - the TDI Cloud, you can also use a EMA on RSI(13) which is the original TDI green price line.

I missed this DAX opening as I was out running errands and due to the pandemic lockdown restrictions, daily chores will be very inconvenient for a few more weeks.
Also the opening GAP was something of concern when I day trade.

Will look later for a LTF correction for possible buy trades.
