You already know that when you expose his mistakes by asking for evidence, all you will get is "non-answer" answers, such as seen above, that have a lot of words but nothing relevant to the question.

But at least some of them provide laughs and nothing else.

BigE’s Trading Made Simple, is simple.

Just here to share and giveback to the community.

I use only 4 elements of BigE’s TMS method. 1pair. Trades with SLTP set and at most one more action of set SL to BE+.

What I use from #1 and #647. Understand #261 and practice #2617
1. TDI green red line
(#647 PA analysis)
2. Previous High/Low
3. Rejection at previous High/Low
4. Trend, long and short term

keep it simple and make life easier. But it is up to the traders should they think complication means better.

I knew back then what Big E felt when he read that this post by member aggravator87 . That post has some valid points about Dean Malone' TDI but Big E only use that TDI as his helping indicator, see Big E Post#202 in his old thread. Big E added the TDI to Craig Harris Stochastic method.

Good Morning Everyone... Thanks for all of your posts and help.

This thread is about The Craig Harris Method really using the TDI as a helping indicator to guide us for entries & exits to completion.

For anyone who knows me... you know I'm always testing, tweeking, etc. to find improvements.

Well, the other day I added the Synergy channel on my 15 minute charts (5 SMA/Hi & 5 SMA/Lo) doing some more testing. What I discovered was by blending the two methods together... One is always confirmation for the other.

Sometimes the Synergy makes the entry call first and sometime Craigs makes the entry call first.

Therefore, what Big E also said these below are all true. You don't need that helping indicator but you need to master the 5-Method.

Big E you can trade without the TDI

Before trading the First thing we do is print out the Daily Calendar from Forex Factory and put next to your computer for News Releases.

Second thing we do is check out our Tokyo Channel to make sure the spread is at least 40 pips or more from Hi to Low. If it's less than 40 pips we don't trade the chart until it is. Tokyo Channel starts at the beginning of the new day and runs until midnight New York time or until the Euro market opens.

Why is this important? On the 15 minute G/U chart we want to see our Hi/Lo swings at 30-60 pips so you are making good money on the few trades you'll make. Normally on that chart/timeframe the Tokyo Channel top to bottom has to be over 40 pips before you get those kind of swings. This is critical.

Craig normally starts trading at the London Open. He normally trades 2 1/2 to 3 hours.

Personal Note: I start looking for set ups 2 hours before the London Open when the Tokyo Channel is over 40 pips by that time.

Unless your over 50 it shouldn't be a big deal to stay up to midnight or 1 AM and go to work the next day. You probably do that most weekends already?

More on this in the next video. Big E

That line right there always sends off alarm bells for me when im reading someone elses strategy

Its the tiny details of what people say in their thread that can make you realise that they actually are talking a lot of Bullshit as when your happy with your trading there is no tweeking needed

Good Morning all you fabulous traders....

I started trading full lots last year... tiring of $1 a pip. Takes the same amount of work... why not get paid for it? Often shooting for $500-$1,000 PER EVENING.

iT'S NOT UNCOMMON TO FIND 3-6 TRADE SET UPS PER EVENING.

Sometimes I would set the TP to 20 pips. 3-6 pairs hitting 20 pips... a few losers maybe... made for a handsome profit.

If I put all of my eggs in one basket... it was hit or miss....

I trade both ways with success...

General Question to everyone :
How many instruments do you trade? Personally I find it easier to focus on only one, but you know trading is fun and only one instrument can be boring time to time.
From what I've seen on really succesfull portfolios, they usually traded 3-4 instruments or 2.
What are your thoughts guys?

I am in total agreement with you that only a couple is better, unless you have 28 monitors or you are kette

I think it also depends on the trader, I scalp manually on short time frames with patterns, thus it is not really easy to watch so many.

I don't trade currencies but hey, why did you trade USDCHF?
Isn't it like the pair that every currency trader avoids?
Just like the HKD

I have 28 pairs i flick through for pivot/swing trading and i think its great for visually noticing which currencies look strong and weak but then which one do i trade or do i enter small and spread it
