Disliked{quote} Thank you so much! You just relieved me of all my fears, misunderstandings and saved a ton of my nerves and time! Now system on my MT4 looks like that: {image}Ignored
hi @AkiraFCK
You chart looks good now.
Since you are running MT4 platform, that Stochastics Slope indicator is good. That was what the OP used in his old thread when he started with Craig Harris' Natural Flow Forex NFF system and that Stochastics Slope was the main indicator. The OP Big E added the TDI from Dean Malone' Synergy as a helping indicator to the NFF system. It is how he developed his trading systems by blending other systems/methods and created new ones.
The way to pick the best trade setups is to pick Price Action setups which have both the Stoch and RSI green price line both show good slope. There are several pdf files explaining these in both old and new threads.
I will post real-time live market charts and help explain how to pick A+++ trade setups.
However, I am rather busy this week with system testing and also installing new server for migration.
Meantime, follow this summary below and get more information.

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.

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.

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.

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..
