You want to know stupid, Here is one Davit. He is really stupid. As far as I know, he is the number one stupid person in FF. He always insults other people without any reason. He claims he is the Pivot trading champion. If anyone opens a thread about pivot trading he tries to stop those threads by insulting.

After reading Rubernet's post, you can simply replace "Davit" with "emmanuel7788" and repost it and your post #110,584 with "pivot" struck out applies perfectly.

If you are going to equate sideways market to low volatility market, then ATR is likely a better choice than SMA.

But post your charts with SMA and some comments and let's see where it goes.

Did you take notice the sentence about ban members that add indicators to method.
Now according to Robot that want to protect BigE's legacy that is OK.
Members can post what they want as long as they don't "smear" Emmanuel never mind BigE's post where BigE asked members to refrain from adding indicators to this method.

Difficult to understand the logic behind such thinking.

Because that is the direction boundary, not as a consolidation indicator.

Look at this picture how may tdi cross bigE did not mark as a horizontal line. Answer will be around 5. Why he did not add line do you know that?

TDI has already such a filter, Hasib.
- Do not trade when angle is between 2/4.
- TDI goes flat, check mark or hook over close trade.
Study old chart's with TDI on them. Check the above point's and see if it fits the type of filter you are seeking.

Those TDI crossover's not marked is where:
- TDI angle was/is between 2/4.
- TDI crossover on the wrong side of 5EMA (not sure about this one.)
- Stoch did not confirm direction.
Please check chart again to confirm above point's.

No BS answer would be. You cannot avoid it, if a market decides to slow down it will do that. It won’t care for your entry or what indicators told you will happen next. Actually it couldn’t care less.

You want to be in the trade, you enter the trade. At this point all your analyses goes out the window, bye bye.

What YOU do then is what counts

About „slow markets“. I struggled a lot with this my self in the past.

My simple advice here would be, trade at times where you can expect some movement normally based on what you trade.

hello everyone ,
i am Neel , from Canada saying hi to all member and experts, hope all are well,
I am new to forex trading but since last 2 month I learn a lot from the great people of this great forum, thank you all of you .
as like everyone I fell in love of this simple TDI indicator, as a new to forex community i tried many indicator before but TDI is amazing i make decent profit with baby steps too, today i am not sure what mistake i made in entry on TDI obviously i couldn't judge something at present i am in negative but not big deal ,i am learning , I am using fxcm / marketscope 2.0 / which use .lua indicator files / but all indicator I can find easily and works well.
anyway , here i am posting pics of my entry and expect to review by expert to help me to find what mistake i did in chart reading for entry ??
i took 2 currency trade AUD/USD - sell (short) and USDollar - BUY (long)

1) A/U ** before entry i check 4hr. chart which A/U - UP trend -but 15 minute TDI was crossing over bought zone(above 68) - so i took short (sell)
2)USDollar ** before entry i check 4hr. chart which USD - downtrend -but 15 minute TDI was crossing over sold zone(aroud 28) - so i took long (buy)

what did i wrong in this entry? what we should look in 4HR or bigger timeframe before make entry decision ?? what would be the first step to get entry in this kind of situation ??

help appriciated , thanks in advance.

Sideways Market

You won't get any serious and meaningful discussions in this thread. Main reason is obvious, in this thread one we have a goat with schizophrenia. The other is simply there is a lack of market experience and the #463# Limitations.

Big E in his old thread knows how he define the market conditions he would trade. He was a subscriber to Lance Beggs Price Action trading. He went on to CompassFX and at about that time in 2006, he attended a Craig Harris seminar. Craig taught many his Natural Flow of the Market in which he traded mostly GBPUSD M15 during the London session. Dean Malone on the other hand was selling his first Synergy system.
Big E' would trade the 4hr with his 10PM , 2AM candles and close his trades at 6AM. Did he really consider the market type?
His post #647 only mentioned a few things for example consolidation, support & resistance, reversals big candle, small candles, etc.

Since you are into testing systems and doing your own trading systems development, then one approach is use these three keys to guide you in your system development

Van Tharp has 25 market types. He trades the US stock market.

But here we trade TMS 5-Method.
I have define for my own trading, only three Market Types.... Keep It Simple!
Only Two Market Types can be traded with TMS 5-Method with good profits over the past years since 2012 till now 2020.

Use facts when your logical thinking fails you on daily basis.

The Fact:
see eelfranz profile and his Ignore List.
7 members got banned and the reasons are well known when you read those posts made around the time when they got banned.

why the OP did not ban others who posted charts with more indicators?
