Hello Orion80,

TDI stands for "Traders Dynamics Index". It is an oscillator indicator to measure price momentum.

Below are the equation for TDI green and red line, which are the key tool for BigE's Trading Made Simple.

For more detail and setting up on your charts, you can download the TDI from #25 or my previous post #129290

GU Buy trades. 1 BE+ 1 closed at expected liquidity grab (i.e. previous high)

Follow BigE's #647
Previous Highs and lows
Trend

HHHL formation indicates uptrend. Previous low retested and rejected to form another higher low, a very good TMS setup for BUY.

Finally, wait for TDI green cross/bounce red UP at entry timeframe to signal trade entry timings.

AUDUSD short. USD is looking strong today. EUR & GBP look similar but are at/near long term support levels {image}
I wouldn't try to predict the future.

BigE's Trading Made Simple reacts to the price movement by using TDI green and red line. With the simple price actions to set expectation of TMS setups at certain price levels and bias, TDI cross and bounce signals provide you the good timing to enter trades

Instead of trading the news which is unpredictable, better trade the reaction to the news that comes after.

You are making yourself look stupid.

As usual, your "live market analysis" is always crap. A piece of s___ like yourself

Why not spend the time and effort to actually learn BigE's Trading Made Simple? As BigE said himself, it takes <2 years to get it right and able to trade well.

Why not stop lying with your hindsight charts with imaginary trades on the non-exist FTMO symbol, ENQ? And you can start actually trading with, for instance, your FTMO 14-day free trial.
I suggest you go for the actual Challenge. If you are really that good you would have no problem getting funded and go on the FTMO leaderboard. But I highly doubt you can do that.

Good luck. You need a lot of it.

Do you look at HTF to decide what pair to trade on the 15M? or do you just look for trend on 15M only and jump in on HL?

What times of day do you trade?

THE WEEK THERE IS NO MOVMENT I TOOK FOUR TRADES THEY WAS MIX OF SMALL LOSSES AND SMALL PROFIT I LOSSED ONLY 10PIPS THE LAST WEEK WAS MORE MOVEMENT I MADE MORE THAN 500 PIPS THE MARKET 70% OF THE TIME MOVE SIDE WAYS AND 30% OF THE TIME TRENDING
30% OF THE TIME TRENDING THAT MAKES THE BIG BROFIT YOU CANT KNOW WHICH TIME THAT THE MARKET WILL MOVE ALL YOU CAN DO ONLY MANGE THE TRADE TO CATCH BIG MOVEMENT IF THE MARKET GIVE YOU THE CHANCE IF NO MOVEMENT GO OUT QUICKLY WITH SMALL LOSSES OR PROFITS
IF ANY ONE CAN ACHIEVE 60% WIN RATE AND WINNERS BIGGER THAN LOSSERS THAT IS GREAT
IF ANY ONE CAN ACHIEVE 50% WIN RATE AND WINNERS BIGGER THAN LOSSERS THAT IS GREAT
I KNOW THAT THERE ARE TRADERS MAKE 80% WIN RATE BUT LOSSERS BIGGER THAN WINNERS AND SOME OF THEM CAN MAKE MONEY BUT IT IS VERY DIFFICULT
NEW TRADERS WHEN ONE TELL THEM THAT HE MADE 85% OR 90% WIN RATE THEY HOPE TO LEARN THIS METHOD
THERE ARE MANY TRADERS THAT HAVE WIN RATE AROUND 60% AND STILL LOSER BECAUSE WHEN THEY GET TWO OR THREE LOSSES IN ROW THEY FIGHT
THE MARKET AND THE MARKET MAY BE GIVE THEM CHANCE TO RETURN THERE MONEY THIS WAY
BUT REMEBER THE MARKET WILL TAKE YOUR ALL MONEY IN THE NEXT TIMES IF YOU FIGHT HIM SO WHEN THE MARKET TAKE BRIBE FROM YOU 3 OR 4 TIMES DONT BE SAD BECAUSE HE KNOW EVERY THING BE HAPPY AND HE WILL GAVE YOU BIG PROFITS FOR YOUR RESPECT REMENBER DONT FIGHT HIM HE MORE STRONGER THAN YOU AND THE MARKET NEVER TAKE ONLY 10%OF THE TIME AND GIVE YOU 90% I DONT THINK THAT
NEW TRADERS FIGHT THE MARKET TO MAKE 90% OR 85% WIN RATE SO THEY STILL LOSERS
WHEN LOSS BE HAPPY THAT YOU GIVE THE MARKET BRIBE BUT LET IT SMALL HE DONT UNDERSTAND THIS POINT
Cut your losses. Cut your losses. Then maybe you have a chance

@tommydog aka @FakeTMSTrader



You took another BAIT! .... GOTCHA AGAIN.

There was no selling today at that 4 hour period and lookin at the M15 Price Action ... experienced TMS traders who learned from Big E would have easily avoided that M15 during the 4-hour candle period.

Reason is very simple, the H4 was bullish when that M15 'setup' appear.

And there is another reason not to sell at that hour.

Who is stupid now? You make yourself the stupid one.

Posting fake trades using photoshop-edited old charts and to make losing trades look like winnig trades is really a very stupid thing by a stupid person with big ego charlatan.

I know Big 'E" closed all his trades at 8 am. well, I decided to try trading those hours since my new candles open at 9, 1 and 5 for H4 chart. So basically I have my alarm to check charts about 10-30 min before those new candles open. I do find that my 9 am trades get totally chopped and bring down my win rate significantly. 9 pm however is a much different story. I have to have discipline not to trade 9am because some set ups look just too good to pass on sometimes. to me it defies logic that I should not be able to trade these time - it is 24...
"I know Big 'E" closed all his trades at 8 am"

Answer: Read all his posts in FF and take notes.

He is a scalper type trader and he mentioned he scalp on the 4hr.
He trade only the 4hr - 10PM, 2AM candles and close at 6AM Pacific. Post#1

But when he trade the Daily chart, it is different.
Also when he trade the Weekly, it is different.

It is not always true that London is the best time to trade.

The best times to trade is when the Weekly is in Market Type#1 and #2.

A lot more notes taken over the years....

Hi Kenergy,

I usually don’t, but it is up to you to use HTF.

When picking the bias, I mostly look at Highs and Lows (#647) at entry timeframe, m15 to H1 my common picks

HTF can be helpful to identify strong price levels as of the highs and lows.
but similar conclusion can be made using entry timeframe identifying strong rejections

To pinpoint the price level I usually go to Lower timeframe, 1 or 5m. Something I learned in another thread “1m price action...”. Very useful

trade well

I trade whenever I have time and seeing good setups. When I work during the day (and usually quite free) I trade during the day in Hong Kong, which is Asian and London session. If I am out for activities then skip. I also trade at evening. If seeing good move in NY open or after news (like the night before yesterday), then I open overnight positions. That would be NY session.

overall my TMS trades are pretty much balanced throughout the day

*added: this is broker time, UK time
