{quote} Jaik, you are cluttering your head and chart with needless information and indicator's. The same chart with only two indicators. Nice clean clear view of what is happening, that is what you must aim for. {image} Read post#2617 Follow the instructions and strip the chart. (keep one or two trend lines) {image}Think along the lines like this: TDI: Jaik, - my green line has crossed the red line, - somewhere in the past there was this same setup, - can you remember that setup - and what happened afterwards Study the chart and train the brain...
It will take a few years more before you can trade without the TDI just like the OP. First you need to master trading the 5-Method then you realise that the TDI was just another 'helping indicator'...#202

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?

Have Fun trading without the TDI.

{quote} @jaik121, THAT post is the kind of information that you should take to heart. That is using the few indicators that BigE said to use, not some 10 to 20 additional indicators that ad clutter to your chart and more importantly,clutter to your mind. Save yourself a LOT of time and trouble and simply read only BigE's posts in the TMS thread, and you will be way ahead of others that come here and start adding indicators, EAs, and ideas form other systems. No need to read anything after he died, because after that, the posts are either repeating...

You are in the wrong thread.

Your own thread TDA with IMT is dead ... no traffic, so you come here to get attention.

Trading Made Simple thread will continue to grow and the OP loves the traffic it generates otherwise he would not have moved the discussion from the Commercial Content forum to Trading System forum.... see this Post#162

USDJPY Sep 02 H4 big candle

- give the big candle a name ... Master Candle
- how many small candles within the H4 big candle, if you counted 3 small candles then the H4 big candle is call a Master Candle[3]

Now, how do you trade a H4 Master Candle[3]?

- Post#647 ... Do Not trade when in CONSOLIDATION ... in this case a H4 MC[3].

- two options:

1) wait for the H4 PA to show a price breakout in H4

2) trade in the next lower timeframe like H1 or even M15 is good.

Hey, sorry for the delay. I’m a rookie when it comes to this app. Unfortunately. I wasn’t able to sort it out yet.

#1. No one needs to read 100,00 posts to find when BigE passed away.
#2. Before making posts on a thread, it would be the intelligent thing to read a lot of the earliest posts, and even better to read all the posts.
#3. Lighten up. BigE isn't offended a bit.

Dave -- the way I figure it you could have responded in one of a few ways:

1. Chosen not to respond.
2. Deleted your post that mocked BigE's death -- which would have made me look stupid.
3. Apologized for your disrespectful post -- thereby showing a little bit of class.
4. Or doubling down -- further proving you are a righteous SOB

You chose (4). Keep posting dude -- everytime you comment people see the poor soul "behind the curtain".

EDIT: Just to be clear -- I am aware that BigE isn't offended. But I -- and perhaps others -- who appreciate BigE's effort here are offended. If you are a grown man or woman, you should be ashamed.

Please keep me out of this group. I just liked DrDave‘s post because i had to smile about it, that’s it. Nothing more nothing less.

I was sure Emmanuel will answer the question soon or later by copy pasting a few thousands of lines, so that’s why I didn’t answer it.

All the best to you.

Yes, I would expect Jdc1688 to do first his homework before posting.
(I did that. Joined Nov 2015 and first post Mar 2016.)

Hey davey-boy -- you come to this thread to feed your ego and harass @emmanuel7788 -- over, and over, and over, and over again. So, it is no surprise that you'd mock BigE's death. You contribute nothing of value to this thread other than to spread your toxic personality -- which is entertaining, but in a sad, pathetic way. You might as well wear a sign on your forehead that says you are lonely and in need of some attention. Davey-boy -- your posting broadcasts come across to most very loud and clear as a cry for help. Leave this thread be and go seek help elsewhere.
