For the next month (after all it is H4) you do what you did in hindsight.
The catch is you do it on the new bar.

Is there an abridged version of the key information, rules, indis, etc for this strategy? I understand the value in reading the thread, but there are over 6500 pages.

Thanks!

You are asking for live trade signals so that you can copy trades.

Just read the first 2000 posts. Absolutely nothing new about the 5-method is presented after that.

But if you want to read all post until BigE's last one, that would be 12,912 posts.

Introduction to Trading Made Simple

To learn what Trading Made Simple is, you have to follow the trading journey of the OP eelfranz aka Big E. He started as a newbie in 2008. Know the history and you will learn a lot from the OP and when you have mastered the 5-Method, you can then move on and develop your own trading system following how he did his. Many traders have moved on to trade their own systems.

Trading Made Simple for beginners : Post#52,707

A short history by pioneer member snarlyjack Post#110

Our late OP eelfranz aka Big E spent 6,000 hours: Post#6 and he evolved as a trader and went on and developed two trading methods.
5-Method and 21/233 Method Post#3018, Post#4104,

After months of postings and answering many frequently asked questions FAQs,
eelfranz made the jump to this new Trading Made Simple thread on 26 April 2011... Post#4432

In Post#1, he explained how he traded the H4 chart timeframe and he also traded the H1 chart during the NY session. This suited his lifestyle being retired and the time zone he lived. Sadly he passed away in Oct 2012.

Two very important posts: Post#261 and Post#647, give a simple summary of what this 5-Method is and the basic forex stuff we check before we look for the TDI setups to trade.

TMS 5-Method Basic Rules: Post#53,841
Always check the #1- Price Action first, then #2- TDI Post#3142
Big E wanted us to build this TMS thread together... Post#4,432

The original indicators and template Post#25
When you are overwhelmed (information overload) by the number of posts and the loads of information and variations shared by other traders here, the best thing to do is to stop reading and go back to the basics what Big E mentioned in his 463 posts in this thread and 861 posts in the CHS thread. First you learn and master the 5-Method first before you start add your own tweaks and make a new system.

Recommendations:
Read all of Big E posts... 861posts in the Craig Harris Stochastics thread and 463 posts in this TMS thread....and make notes on those training charts he posted. Pay attention whenever he mentioned PA and what you see on his training charts.

Learn the basic stuff about forex trading first. A good place to start is www.babypips.com/school

If you want to trade the way Big E described in Post#1, make sure you use his template , the Synergy APB / HA candles and use that TDI Red Green version. These are in Post#25.

Important to Note that the TDI Red Green version repaints all the bars in history so you cannot use this when you do back-testing by scrolling back your charts. The better way is to run this in live market and trade the TMS setups based on what you see without refreshing your charts. When you want to trade with entries on the APB#1 and APB#2 candles, always wait for the price bar/candle to close and use the TDI to confirm the setup.

Big E was a rules-based discretionary trader. According to studies by Dr Van K Tharp this rule-based discretionary traders are the best traders,

Enjoy and Have fun during your learning journey..

Would love to see how you explain yourself when price does not do what you predicted.

Now why would I need live trade signals from you Vincent?

Good old TDI is on time every time.

Your glee at again mocking @BigE's death is noted. Karma always finds a way to pay you back -- and, no doubt, you are paying that price. What a life you must lead DrDave...

One more post to reach your daily quota of 10 and then you can rinse and repeat. DrDave -- you da man...
