  6. attentional dyslexia.


Dyslexia is a learning disorder that involves difficulty reading due to problems identifying speech sounds and learning how they relate to letters and words (decoding). Also called reading disability, dyslexia affects areas of the brain that process language.

Question: What is Trading Made Simple aka TMS?

Is trading Big E's TMS what he mentioned in his Post#1?
> trade the 4hr 10pm, 2AM and 6AM his FXDD broker time?
> and trade 1hr during US open session only for 2 to 3 hours?

I trade once every 4 hours from Sydney Open till London Close daily. Sometimes I miss a 4hr candle, no big deal because the trade window is 30 mins to 240 mins when a new H4 opens.
I check my 4H chart for trade setups
I day trade and short swing trade with H1 and H4 charts.
I also long swing trade with Daily and Weekly charts.

I trade E-Mini Futures when the US session open for 1 to 3 hours maximum, usually only 2 hours then I hit the sack for 6 hours. I take power nap during my day time. That my retirement life and being a trader. Its fun!

Not much I can do now with covid-19 floating around.

What i do not see a lot of on here is the recommended times the OP said he trades He said he looks for setups 2 hours before london open and also 2 hours after london open and then closes all trades 4 hours later But i have never seen anyone mention this part of the strategy?
Hi Wags,

You can refer to my previous posts such as #122952.

BigE has mentioned that timeframe and time of the day is not a rule for his Trading Made Simple method.

===
1. TDI is heart of the TMS 5-method --- #261, #2617
All trades I share here are signaled by TDI green cross /bounce red

2. I work with time frames and time of day that suits me --- #644, #1170, #4470
I usually trade during work hour because of my privilege at my job which I have a lot of free time. Sometimes at night because it is London/NY market time when volatility is high. I like Lower Time Frame because I prefer quick-in-quick-out.

3. I use simple PA analysis that everyone can learn --- #276, #647
I prefer leading ones which I can anticipate TMS TDI cross/bounce setups to catch the swing in early stage like BigE demonstrated in his charts

4. Aligning with the discussion of this thread during BigE's time, entries are the main focus --- #495
If I have other aspect of trading to share, I would go to other related threads. I hope readers in this thread can receive concise and relative information in respective thread for efficient learning

5. I apply the correct use of TDI Green & Red lines --- #11
#11 has clearly shown that BigE refreshed his chart before viewing the chart. Traders who want to learn and practice the TMS should 1) refresh the chart before analysis, or 2) use a non-repainting TDI Green Red indicator. I chose the later.

6. Absolutely no EA --- #802
Two reasons: 1) To respect the thread rule. 2) If you need to rely on EAs to help you become profitable, i) Your trading skill is so-so at this stage, and ii) you will never learn the discretionary analysis that can further improve your trading skills

7. Most importantly, I participate the forum with respect --- #486

{quote} Do you only trade the 15M charts? What do you use to determine the trend?
Hi Xiqat.

I trade mostly H1 and lower.

The price actions I used are listed in #647
previous high or low
uptrend or downtrend.. short & long term...
candles on the last reversal... big, little, what

Higher highs and higher lows --> Up trend, buy aggressively sell safe
Lower highs and lower lows --> Down trend, sell aggressively buy safe
else --> Consolidation and trade carefully both ways

For example GU H1. up trend as a start, then equal low but fail to make higher high. then either range or reverse to downtrend. It's that simple.
There are multiple sources to learn in-depth the principles behind #647. Some people share their thoughts on Youtube too.

hi EMM, Here is ping pong Between Takkies and realjumper.

My opinion is realjumper knows TMS much better than Takkies.

a Few post's back Jumper you posted that you and BigE vouched for each other and that is way you are on his buddy list. The way your post's read lately indicate that after all these years you never really believed in what BigE has posted nor that this method is anything but unprofitable.

I'm not quite sure how you deduced all that from a simple question I have asked, which is simply to ask you (and other teachers, chart posters) to employ a TE to support your claims. If you refuse to do so, then the question is 'why not?'

Both you and PayItForward are making a lot of assumptions about my motives and/or trading abilities to try and deflect from the simple question. I know that Emmanuel is a wriggly character when it comes to answering this question which I have asked for 3 years, but I thought better of you. My mistake.

Now you want to use a TE to "proof" the validity of this method.

No. I want to see the TE as proof of your claims and to ensure that you're not cherry picking certain trades. I have never ever mentioned the validity of this system.

Sorry, that is not going to happen with my TE. TMS is not a easy method to trade with despite the title. An TE will lead to false expectation and who will be called out. Even the chart's posted are being question by member's (floating man, con-artist). Not going to walk that road again.

A TE would end all those false expectations and would stop all the 'floating man, con artist accusations in a heart beat.

Chart's are posted without any information. Why? There are a few checklist for this method (paperclip). Member's can use a checklist or BigE's training chart's and post's to find the reasons for that entry on that chart posted. That is how I learned

Indeed, but that has nothing to do with my simple question.

This will be my last response in regards to anything related to Trade Explorer's.

I'm sure it is. Some people are willing to post charts and 'guide' (aka 'teach') newbies, but they can not offer any evidence that they can walk the walk. Too easy to just talk the talk, until someone like me comes along and calls them out. Then the squirming and excuses begin.

Adding crap EAs does not help improve your trading. Set and forget SLTP you can maximise your odds and profit with your analysis. Trust your analysis as a TMS trader

All this extra crap does nothing but confuse other traders and their success rate drops and they can't figure out why...

GA, Do you think price moving higher has more than 50% probability, Than buy it, Forget about confirmations.
you know two things can happen one is you can stop out another one is price go up and you make nice return.
if you think it has 50%+ probability buy it. Don't need pivot, don't need TDI, don't need HA, Market profile, Volume profile, Point and figure, Gann, EW, TDM, Don't need lots of modern indicator from expert coder.
You will learn and learn years and years After learning all of those you will know you don't need any of those at all. You already has what you need.
