Couple of hours before london open but i couldnt resist {image}
I took a similar trade on EUR/USD. Entered before LO but slow day on that pair.

Took several hours of not really going anywhere.

Managed to exit with a 23pip profit. My stop on this one was at the 3 semaphore and i left it there which saved me from being stopped out. Had it continued down past the 3 semaphore would have been a small loss.

May still eventually go through the MACD 0 but am happy with 23 pips on that trade.

New trade. Entered away from Yellow sun. No TDI cross but was confident because the daily average was almost exhausted and price always goes to new MACD peak after yellow sun. Set take profit to 50 pips and went to meetings. Is so nice when you glance at the phone to see the target hit. {image} {image}
Thanks so much for publishing this and showing that it's still profitable years down the line.

Really studying this strategy but struggling with when you're actually entering, Drewas.

Apologies if mistaken but I believe your rules are to wait for a sun / '3', then when the candle colour changes enter the trade. After that, you have to decide to stay in or drop out depending on whether there's a TDI cross. But, in some examples you've given you don't seem to have entered at the specified point, but entered a lot later.

For example, the trade in post 313: why did you not enter on the 1st blue candle after the '3' + colour change + TDI cross? Instead you waited another 5 candles before entering?

Hey Jinch,
Glad your getting some value out of the posts.
I don't trade all day and sometimes am slow to see the trade opportunity.

I will still enter if there seems to be an opportunity to make PIPS Away from last semaphore, tdi cross and space for price to go through 0 on MACD.

Sometimes if semaphore 3 appears And I get a new bar colour will enter and wait for tdi Cross to confirm I've made a good choice.

An example from today's setups.

I haven't traded this but you could.

I normally try to enter on the first or second candle colour change, you see there is already a red 'lesser' semaphore so need to be cautious but both trades are valid for me as there's probably pips to be made as price goes through MACD 0.

Of course, it may reverse on you and go up to make a new '3' semaphore but that's when you get out and look for the next trade.

If the 3 semaphore sticks then there's a high probability price goes through MACD 0 and so PIPS can be had.

Time of day, news, etc can all affect this but that's where your money/trade management comes in.

So as a follow-up to the chart this morning you can see that had you (and I) entered a sell after the 3 yellow semaphore and confirmed with a TDi cross you would have made pips.

Price flew past the moving averages and went through the MACD 0 and formed a new 3 semaphore.

Had I traded this I would be looking for an exit even though there is no blue reversal candle or TDI cross in the other direction.

Circa 200 pips possible. Was an unusual day in that there was lots of big news which helped the movement but illustrates the system quite well.

Actually, as I'm typing the above I can see the first blue candle and a possible TDI cross which confirms i should be exiting according to MY trading plan.

So a follow-up from yesterday.

Yesterday's last 3 semaphore and tdi cross might act as an exit from the large moves yesterday.

It can also be an entry as per this system.

If you entered away from the last 3 semaphore at the break of the last red candle you would be PIPS positive by around 50pips right now.
Will the price continue through the MACD 0 or continue down and form a new low (3 semaphore)?

I don't know, I do know that if the last 3 semaphore holds then there is a high probability it will go through MACD 0 if it doesn't then maybe look for an exit.

I don't normally trade at this time but this is an example of how the system works.

As you can see theres big news today so be very careful if you trade this system today.

Following on from this morning's post.

The 3 semaphore from yesterday held and the price went through MACD 0 albeit very slightly.

Depending on your entry you could have made between 50 - 80 pips trading this morning.

I would be looking for an exit from the trade around the first TDI red-green cross and look for another setup.

These are the pairs that have 3 yellow semaphores so far this morning.

USD/CAD is a valid entry with a TDI cross so let's see what happens.

Many thanks, Drewas. That helps clear up some things in my mind.

Again, massive thanks for this thread. I'm working through every page and post, taking notes and screenshots. Afraid I'll probably have a few more questions for you when I get to the end!

Hey Oleh.

They look like good entries to me. One that wouldn't have worked out (in hindsight) GBPUSD.

So price went up to form a new 3 semaphore after the one earlier in the day.

Had you traded the TDI cross and got in candle one or two of the change then you would have made a few pips, broken even, or maybe taken a small loss depending on your exit/money management strategies.

You cant win them all and I would be looking to trade off the new semaphore early next week if I see setups on this pair.

The blue candle with the long red tail would be a warning to think about exiting a trade or not entering one yet.

My stop-loss on that one would probably have kept me in the trade if you were already in it. I start normally with a 50pip stop loss

I try to preserve my account capital so might have exited and waited for the break of the next semaphore 3.

Easy after the fact, more difficult when trading it live. Practice, practice, practice and it will come.

One thing that might have helped is I have learned that the high or low of the London Trading session is formed in the first couple of hours of the London session.

Don't take my word for it though do your own testing!

Glad it's useful to you.

I am not an expert and this is only what I found to work for me only. It has worked for me over years.

Do your own testing and practice if you want to use it.

I don't trade every day as it fits in around a full-time job but will answer questions if I can and time allows.

Hey Drewas
Are you now using APS's instead of HA's bars? Also I noticed you are using the Synergy Pro TDI. Have you found that to be more accurate than the original TDI?

Thanks

Hey Shrips.

Yes is APB on recent charts and yes TDI Synergy Pro indy is on some of my charts.

It makes no difference to me I have APB on my desktop and Heiken Ashi on my mobile app:- Compare the two.

Hello Drewas !
I have a question for you
How to calculate the size of the stop loss for highly volatile instruments such as dax and gold, because 50 pips will not be enough?
Maybe 50% of ADR?

Took this sell trade on EURUSD on the 28th.

Cyan line indicates where I placed the trade. Red horizontal line is the strike price.

Reasons to enter:
- the yellow sun had appeared a couple of candles before (it's now repainted so much it's gone off the screen)
- candles turned red
- TDR green dropped through TDR red
- plenty of room for price to drop before it reached any SMAs
- inside LO to NY close trading period

However, price continued to rise and is still doing so 2 days later.

Was this just a trade that went against me, or did I miss a rule / do something I shouldn't have?
