In the previous post, USDCHF was in uptrend with HHHL formation invalidated and buy opportunity ended (green). To trade reversals, a TDI cross down from 68 is considerable to enter the sell.

To set up TDI alerts for 68/32 retrace, on TradingView it can be set as TDI green line crossing (up/down/either) a value of 68 or 32.
It can be changed anytime back to Green crossing Red for next setup.

Folks
That is too troublesome to keep having to change this and change that.
When you want to trade with the TDI, there are several MT4 TDI versions with many alert features and you do not need to make all the changes when the market is open.
Simply open an account with any broker which offers MT4 and MT5, you will have the best of all the TDI versions available.
There is no such nonsense as predictive TDI.
Do not fall for such online scams.

TMS’s price action #647, there is no LHLL clean formation yet. Previous lows not broken and rejected.
The direction is buy.
TDI cross up from 32 level.

@tommydog...
You obviously do not understand Big E' 5-Method and what is Trading Made Simple. This thread is not about scalping the M15 chart.
First, read post #281 and make the transition to look at the 4Hr and Daily, then apply the forex trading basics as in post #647 ... top down analysis.
1) Weekly has the control ... that big candle high-low
2) Daily is sideways choppy in narrow range ... obvious ...
If you follow post#281,
then this is what you should be looking at ...
> you are wasting your time trading the M15 intraday "market noise" in trying to impress people here.
>>> go find another pair and pick the best A+++ setups when the market is trending

{quote} When you post using the OP TMS 5-Method charts and template, we can talk again. No more of your TDI M15/H1 VLine nonsense which is not TMS 5-Method. Yes. Tekkies I have grown up trading following Big E' Post#2617 2scoops asked me a long time ago what would be the most beneficial to learning this method for higher success... The answer was simple... study old charts for set ups... now strip down everything on that chart at that point... trends, angles, S/R levels,...

When you study old charts, you will learn Price Behaviour and how oscillators like the Stochastics, RSI and TDI responds to the Price, this is why traders consider oscillators as lagging indicators ... but they do tell their own stories about past Price Behaviour.
It is very important when you trade Big E' 5-Method you must read your candles on your charts.
Example below,
> when price makes 1-2-3 swings, look at the Stoch and TDI
> swing high (1), swing low (2) ....
> then the next swing high(3) which is a lower high than (1),
> both lagging oscillators will show lower highs ,
> note how the Stoch 80- and 20- levels
> note the TDI 70- and 30- levels which are default RSI levels.

@tommydog....
"TDI cross down from 68 level was BigE’s favourite setup."
You got this wrong. That is not Big E' favourite setup.
Trading the high and low of the TDI is just one of many setup conditions using the lagging RSI/MA and TDI.
Big E also trade when the RSI green price line crosses it 50-level.
Big E has many rules-based discretionary setups which are his top five favourites and those setups have the Stochastics(8,3,3) signals with True REVERSAL candle setups.
Example:
Note, both Stoch and TDI are above their "over-bought" regions and this is when the Market Type condition is Sideway Ranging. These over-bought and over-sold regions reversal do not work in Trending Market Type I.
Traders here need to learn How to determine the various Market Types.
