Another bunch of empty talks of +1R. The guy who chickened out and close at 0.2-0.7R tells others to trade with 5R. He doesn't even trust his own analysis after all these years of experience..

Hi all, I am going to honor the late OP of this thread, BigE, and provide a platform in this thread for people who are really learning, sharing, discussing TMS. BigE was an experienced trader. To start with, first focus on reading BigE's old posts, charts, and constructive Q&A with other FF members back in 2011 at post #1-#12,912. Other members' posts back then were also useful. Reader can expect a lot of meaningless posts and distractions from this thread and TMS strategy. Remember, filtering noise and fake information is an essential skill in...

I got suggested about catching the momentum using MTF. My current approach is not using it, at least for now.

My strategies are reversals and I am not good at trending. For TMS I can handle TDI Cross (Reversal) but not Bounce (Trending). So I don't use the bounce rules for now.
If MTF analysis is needed in the future, my approach will be like RockZFX (Youtube channel).

Higher timeframe - Reversal, preferably a leading / anticipation setup, e.g. structures.
Lower timeframe - Trending, but it has to be lagging or at least formed at same time as HTF signal. Confirm the reversal as a swing

For example the hidden divergence TDI cross at EU H1 #116,591
On H1 it showed a TMS TDI cross down as sell signal. It is a reversal from the swing up. Time of signal confirmation was 11:00am at 10am candle close

For MTF, entry time frame can be m15. On m15 chart, TMS bounce trade as per BigE's description formed. This trending set up is formed at 11:00 too.

If using MTF and go down for entry, the chance of the trending set up in LTF is already passed or forming. Since TMS is a slightly lagging, I think the LTF entry is more missed than yet to happen.
For example the EJ H4 sell at post #116,462. LTF has a bounce setup, but it was when the cross set up H4 candle was forming.

One possible combination is the S/D level for HTF (Green line), and TMS bounce trade at entry timeframe. Then traders will be able to anticipate a trending confirming instead of chasing one.

{quote} Agree. At the same time I hope to let other readers understand the true TMS. TBH at first when I came to this thread I thought I was in the Blessing3. On my way learning I am also building the thread again and filter out noise for future readers. Will keep posting charts and let others decide if TMS is suitable for them or not. Please feel free to comment Thank you.
@tommy: "On my way learning I am also building the thread again and filter out noise for future readers."

Oh, that's right -- "Tommy Platform" -- I remember that post. Sounds like a "BigE wannabe"...
And you'll be giving BigE credit with each of your posts, right?

My strategies are reversals and I am not good at trending.
You are absolutely right. One more thing that I have found. I can be wrong. But... Why strategies are not working with positive expectation? Why they have negative? That's because of another traders and algos that are making their impacts. For example well-known crossover or macd with all known variants. They are all already programmed and used. Just look at mql website (freelance tab) and check what EAs users want to create. They are all around all that indicators/approaches. But there are no plus or minus in the world/market. Everything tends to zero, to have balance. That's why all the traders here complain about market changes, unpredicted, manipulated and so on. TMS has negative expectation 10 years ago, it is negative now and will. If someone will find the strategy with positive expectation it will be balanced by another traders/algos and become negative very fast. I think even not weeks needed, but days or even hours.
But we know it and have a clear vision whats going on. So in my opinion to win this game we must be faster and smarter than average trader. And stop believe in magic (and in invisible trades by EMM ).

{quote} Exactly! My joking post (but real, you can create your TDI yourself) was to say: Guys like EMM ask you to "study" TMS for years. But this is just a waste of time. Study how indicators works. What data they are using and what lines they draw. And then you will see that EMM or just a liar, who has occupied this thread to gain profits, or a slow guy who can't understand for 10 years that this is all just a BigFake.
BTW EMM always say that BigE died, so his words are some kind of Truth. Ok, then Hitler words are the same quality? He has died too. Sorry to cross/compare these 2 guys together, but I think you have to have your own brains to decide what is good and what is not. And not just because someone died. Because we all will. If topic starter died not give the thread a "gold" status.
I insist that TSM is not a strategy. It is just an entry rule. A good entry rule. But not better than standard EMA 200 + MACD that I've shown you later. And blessing is very dangerous stupid martingale EA you should never use with real accounts.

@tommy -- you are approaching 400 posts, have 4 subscribers (2 who have never posted), and 1 thread with 1 reply. As a FF member you are having zero effect -- other than serving as foil to @DrDave who thinks that if you distract me then I might forget about him.

@tommy -- we get that you want to be the next BigE -- announcing your new "platform" and your intent to rebuild the thread, even though you are still just learning (your own words). Son -- it ain't going to happen. You are trying too hard and not cut out for it.

@tommy -- I'll back-off and give you a temporary reprieve in the hope you'll accept the opportunity to bid your adieu and exit gracefully. I'm an old man and you're playing my game. Don't you have other interests or responsibilities?

Well.. the money you win from the market has to be taken from someone who lose.

An actual winning strategy is not to be shared publicly. BigE's TMS is mechanical rules plus his own discretions and other undisclosed considerations in order to achieve the so called 65%. If only trade on mechanical rules the strategy is doomed to fail. People can extract bits and parts of TMS and if useful implement it into their trades.

However to do so, the learning process is to follow TMS and understand how it may or may not work, which is what this thread should be doing.
