{quote} So you do know that post. Then the matter is settled. - Stop posting your type of post's because they are not about TDI or how to use TDI the why BigE used TDI in this thread.
Good questions Tekkies.

Unless you mastered this method already... keep the questions or concerns coming. Post your Demo trades too.

Continue making Demo trades to build your confidence and study old charts where the TDI gives clean signals... it will pay you in spades... well, pips in our case...
https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...40#post4573240

I have mastered the method and I am here to show people what you can do when you have learned and have mastered the method and Big E was correct when he said we can trade without the TDI.
Once you have mastered the method, the TDI is only a 'helping indicator' Post#202 which you can trade without.

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.

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.

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?

You keep on posting "This thread is not about trading TDI cross." When are you going to post what this thread is about? No I can not trade with out TDI. Is it shameful to trade with the aid of an indicator. Would not know, neither do I care. Once again, based on what you post Emmanuel > Grow up
Indicators,like another tool, can be very useful.

For FakeTrader, it makes no difference if he uses some kind of tool (like his nonsense EAs, MACDcloud, mother bar, etc.) or no tools at all, the result is the same: He goes deeper into his FailurePit. Just from the pure statistics, he gets a win here and there that he posts. But overall, he stays deep in the red.

The only tool that he has really mastered is Photoshop. He has been able to use that tool to turn thousands of failed trades into amazing (fake) winners!

{quote} here is EVIDENCE of a liar. When he cannot Walk-the-Talk and post realtime live trades when the market is now open, he got himself pinned against the wall already. He started a newbie in Mar 2016 and in Sep 2016 just 6 months he made the false claim about 85% to 90% win rate. https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...74#post8834074
Wow, long time ago.
Thanks for posting that Emmanuel.
- Find a few simple indicators you like and learn them upside downside and sideways. Study the chart when they give a sell / buy signal.
Did that with TDI, now I use it everyday
- Simple trend line is from top left corner to right bottom corner or left bottom to right top of the chart window. Zoom in or out to fit. If the trend match any of those line that is the way to place orders
Still the most simple way to find long / short term trends.
-Use one to three indicators on main chart is more than enough.
Down to two. Not bad.

{quote} Hi BataviaTrade You have being trading for quite many years. You were active here before years ago. How's your trading with TMS 5-Method? The atmosphere here has been the same since Tekkies joined FF and started his first few posts in 2016. He is the new teacher teaching people what the TDI is and how to trade the TDI cross-to-cross. He still thinks the TDI is Holy Grail which he claimed to have 85% to 90% win rate, that was in Oct 2016. He is just another hobby trader and you know this forex trading hobby cost a lot of money when pursue...
Hi Emmanuel, thanks for your response; Indeed I was active here a few years ago since I got triggered by the title of this thread (who wouldn't?). As it is one of the most active threads here on FF and also the one with the most postings I still check in here a little now and then. Currently not attracted to actively support it with my own postings, set-ups and ramblings. Also because I am trading another system which works better for me. I think for this thread probably goes the saying, 'many are called, but few are chosen'.

It's (sincerely) fantastic if TMS works great for you! Actually you remembered me about the TMS-5 set up, I had to dig it up, now I am even made a template for it on my station, but just for the heck of it LOL. As for this system, for me, time-based trading systems are not the best fit. I do believe time structures our thinking and so does it structure (and forming) the set-ups for this system, but in the end, time is (imho) a factor which does work against me in trading. To me, just price counts, hence I trade trade range charts, which work wonders for me. To me, I don't care what price does in 4 hours, but what it does itself, whether it happens to be in 4 hours or 4 minutes. But I admit, the idea of 'set-and-forget in TMS (like eelfranz went back to sleep after the 4h midnight candle) is quite attractive. But it is probably not for everyone, I think it takes a special man. Just my 2 cents.

regards
BT

oops forgot to add, yes I do follow another thread which is also time-based, Spud's MTF FIB Breakout System, I like it's simplicity. Probably I can't handle the angle-thing of the TDI in TMS, I never get it right hahah. I will play with the 5-method for now which uses the RSI.

Well, then it should be simple.

Post some realtime live trades when the market is open... Walk-the-Talk and be honest and it will show realjumer that you are not that too stupid.

Stop posting crap!

Where are the questions in that post Emmanuel?

No wonder how you managed to twist 2617
After all you fail everyday to post a nice clean chart with no indicators.
Unless you twisted "now strip down everything on that chart at that point" out of that post as-well

Nice entry, correct bar.

Posting about Realjumper.
Not so sure the indicator is such a secret.
If stupid trader with lot's of time on hand can find it, how easy will cleaver trades find it.
Not a bad indicator.

You need to pass that along to emmanuel7788; his ONLY life is right here on FF.

He spends HOURS every day searching for material to copy-paste, most of it toxic material intended to deride and denigrate others.

He spends additional hours using Photoshop to prepare images to post here to try to look like a trader.

His life is so wrapped up in FF that he sleeps a maximum of 4 hours at a stretch: It's no surprise that his mental condition never improves when it has been reported that regular sleep interruption quickly leads to disturbances in mental faculties. So when a person like him with existing mental problems does it, it's obvious that the mental problems are compounded.
