{quote} hey @tommydog... @FakeTMSTrader what mental illness caused you to post fake trades in a dead man thread? you need to see a psychiatrist immediately and let him diagnose your mental conditions. show him these examples of fake trades you posted in this thread. If your psychiatrist do not know MT4 trading platform, he can contact me for platform lessons. {image} {image} {image} ...

For all you new to MT4 trading platform:

How to show trades from your MT4 Teminal Account History on your chart. Post#52,163

Inserted Video



knowing this simple feature you will be able to spot the fake trades when people manually use a photoshop editing tool to create charts and post them here to mislead people into believing they are winning traders. There are several others we have witnessed since 2008 in Big E old thread and in this thread. Latest example exposed is @tommydoginti.

{quote} {image}{image} #261 then TDI cross HHHL uptrend formation. HL rejection TDI cross entry confirmation. expected HL but TP at prev H. Already good enough for me.

"Been away from FF for a while again as many things happened last month for me."

hey @tommydog

you went away for a while but you still did not see any psychiatrist about your cheating problem.

why do you take 2 days to post a trade taken with your FTMO $200,000 DEMO account?
you only post winning trades and hide all your losers.... to impress people trying to learn Big E' Trading Made Simple 5-Method.

many newbies looking at your AU Buy 10.0 lots trade would be very impressed.

but remember Big E' Post#696:
When trading don't bite off more than you can chew. Trading Demo is different than trading live... For some reason it gets harder to pull the trigger when it's real money... that's why its so important to build confidence and study old charts... any pair, any time frame on Demo... and then when you finally go live... Trade a Micro account first... as more confidence builds switch to a Mini account... because if you made a poor entry or decision... it really hurts losing the green stuff... So start SMALL when you switch to live trading

{quote}I know trading can be done without the tdi or any indicators at all and there are a vast number of patterns can be used instead, but why bother is the question I would ask. The TDI is not going away, so might as well use it, along with the HMA. The way I look at it, it is "simpler" to look at the TDI and a couple of indicators along with higher lows, lower highs than to look for patterns, but as they say, each to his own.

"..why bother is the question I would ask."

reading Big E' posts in Forex Factory, he once said:#296

"Just because you can bring an indicator up on your chart doesn't mean you know how to use it correctly.

Learning to trade is a lifetime process. Develop a trading system that fits you and practice, practice, practice. When your confident... go live.

Learn to tweek your strategy to stay up with changing market conditions.


My answer to your question "why bother?" above

and

 

  1. Learning to trade does not need to be a lifetime process. All it requires 2 to 3 years to learn system development and to develop trading systems that fits you.
  2. Next big part is the next phase- practice, practice, practice. How long is this phase?
  3. You need to have different systems to trade in different market type conditions. Learn to fine tune your strategy to stay up with changing market conditions.


Here are the three keys to system development. Use these information and write your own system development document.

Hey tommy, you really sent Vincent into a mental tizzy fit! He made post-after-post disparaging other members and simply repeating old (and mostly useless) information over-and-over. His OCD coupled with his narcissistic ego really keep him locked in hopeless losing cycles--in all aspects of his life, not just in trading.

Did you notice that he still has no proper, convincing explanation for how he can claim to trade a $10,000 account, making $1000 per day, yet says that we must wait for a 3-year cycle to end before he can show that the account grew to $100,000? According to HIS own numbers, the very first year of trading would have the account well OVER $100,000. But what does he post about it instead of the numbers? "Be patient"; "wait for 3 years"; And even THEN, he still won't be showing the results of the completed 3 years, but rather more BS (to try to keep the suckers on the hook): "I'll show you how to trade a $10,000 account and make $100,000 in less in 3 years trading cycle." So he thinks that someone would be following him for the next 3 years AFTER his current cycle ends in late 2023?? ROFLMAO!!! The ONLY useful thing that Vincent has managed to post is LOTS OF LAUGHS for everyone to enjoy!

I also did a bit of searching based on his post with the Return by Trade# image and found the original that he used for his Photoshopped image:

hey @Fake'Dr'Dave

you have been posting in Forex Factory for more than 10 years and your first post in Big E' old thread was in July 2011.
Stop running around from thread and thread looking for the holy grail system.

if you still do not have a $10,000 account and cannot make $500 to $1,000 per evening like the Op Big E , its time for you to stop trading and get another day job.

Read Big E' Post#557 and Post#7555

#557

I'm not looking for 15 pips profit... more like 150 !

The money I put into my last trading account ($10,000) I don't even think about it. It's like the money you take to Las Vegas. You hope to win but don't often... Your taking money for entertainment and relaxation... So I don't give it a second thought... It's entertainment money as I said... Besides It always grows larger...

I REMEMBER THE DAYS WRINGING OUT MY HANDS FOR MY $500 ACCOUNT... THE SKIES FALLING ! Help, help, help.

If I enter a trade lets say and I'm monitoring the trade and its up 50 pips but suddenly it pulls back 10-15 pips I just exit. I'll keep the profit at $10 a pip... no big deal. If it turns and continues (bounce) I'll just jump back in... Don't get so rigid...

Evidently I missed something while looking at the set up and it's cut me short.... there are always set ups on different timeframes... different pairs. I'll study the trade I jumped out of for the answer so I don't make the same mistake again hopefully..

If your worried about the money in your account how are you going to pull the trigger with confidence? They tell you from the get go the money in your account shouldn't be money you need... otherwise don't trade...



#7555
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.

Well, for a normal person, it would be easy. But considering that you did not supply the link to your TE, it is readily concluded that either: 1.) no such TE exists; or 2.) that it is simply TOO HARD for you to figure out how to post the link.

Either way, the result is the same: no link posted, once again exposing you.

That's simply what he does--it's an effect of his mental illness. You can see that he essentially kills off whatever he pursues: medical school entrance exam: he killed that one; playing the piano--another one down the crapper; trying to trade--multiple accounts met the flush and repeat cycle.

@Tekkies asked:
"What the fxxx is going on here.????"

Well, many things happening here, for one we all know since Dec 2019 was that day when @Fake'Drd'Dave suffered a fatal blow to his fragile mental condition when he discovered that RobinHood banned him from the TradingMadeSimple(r) thread.
He already had his mental breakdown when his thread TDA with IMT failed to attract readers even those members in his delusional mind who requested his market analysis. The truth is there were no member who requested his market analysis, it was those same voices in his head which he hear every day that made him start his IMT academy.

stay tuned for more.

More of his confusion tactics to try to keep the suckers on the hook.

He ONCE AGAIN fails to follow the very FIRST thing that BigE said to do when opening a chart: Check for a TDI green cross red. IF there is one, now do an analysis. If there is not one, move on. You can always come back and check for the cross at the close of the next bar.

But as you see in Backward Boyz post, he is stuck in the OLD THREAD with the talk of stochastics indicator. So, with his mental problems that he posted about, he just can't make the switch to the rules of the 5-method that BigE presented in THIS thread.

And in his specific example, SO WHAT if stochastics showed "something" before the TDI green crossed red?? IT IS IRRELEVANT UNTIL the TDI green cross red is confirmed. THEN one of the criteria to check is, does the stochastic confirm the TDI?

Sure, a trading system can be developed based on stochastic indicator and using TDI to CONFIRM the stochastic. But guess what--THIS thread is not about that!!! So if the mental midget wants to develop or talk about such a system, he can simply go open a thread for it instead of polluting and perverting this thread. But sadly, his mental illnesses seem to be preventing that.

Hmmm Price for bulls needs to close above 0542. Chose your own timeframe. I'm using the day. If a day closes above (5est). It should test some higher R. What higher R. I don't know exactly. Year S2 at 0651. Q S2 at 0641. For reference. Closing above these could lead to 0767 (ping pong 0664, Normal 0642). It should have the same rules regarding closes. Atm the trend is down. If pa decides to close above these but below others posted here. Its not so clear. The trend is down, so consider that when pa is unable to close above these. I didn't say price was going to 0767, it does have a chance. It has less chance. if it cant close a day above 0642. St lighter support at 0556 lighter 0534.

The trend is down, knowing S/R is important. Those ma's used in isolators and indicators are. Are screwed when pa stalls. The longer the stall the more time frames end up in a small area. A b/o needs a solid level to remove some of the noise. The week candle did engulf bullish. But so far hasn't tested 0642. The week closed above a major support at 0506.8. Some confusion and ranging should be expected in the 0506.8 area. It requires a large close below. It hasn't closed a month below since 2002. 03xx could hold bears back for a while.
Caution since the trend is down. When pa is struggling to take these. Especially if unable to close above 0642. Good look. Big pips to all.

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 are the best traders,

Enjoy and Have fun during your learning journey..
