Reply to a few PMs this week.

1. Why would anyone hold on to sell positions and adding to sell losing positions the last 2 weeks

2. Using the TDI and its yellow Market Base Line and its 50-level, do we sell when the green and red line is above its 50-level?

3. What is 2CLB ?

EurCad Daily

> if you follow the OP' post #281, and make the transition to trade the 4Hr and Daily ... you would not be selling the last 2 weeks and definitely not holding onto sell positions in drawdown.
> its not just about the yellow MBL and the 5-0-level of the TDI, you need to look at the overall Market Type conditions based on Big Picture Price Action and Swing Highs/Swing Low , Support/Resistance ... and the TDI Volatility Band blue band lines
> is the VB wide or narrow ... using @Tymen terms, is the VB balloon or sausage shape?

EurCad Weekly

> if sell positions hit the 2CLB , then "cut losses short" ... you do not hold onto DD for more than two weeks.

This post to reply a few PMs on indicators and settings, and what is the correct settings.

Too much time is being spent on TDI and Stochastics,
Too little time on Price Action and Support/Resistance.
And no time spend on Money Management, Risk Management for entries and exits, When to Cut-Losses short and How to Let Profits Run.
You need to find your WINNING EDGE and the TDI is not in the winning edge equation.


Spend more time on developing your Money Management strategies that will help you achieve your financial objectives in trading the markets.
At the same time, develop your Mental strategies to support your trading psychology when you are trading in live market conditions.

Big E' 5-Method is less than 5% of the trading system. The rest of 95% is your money management and trading psychology that will be important components of your winning edge.
The 5-Method' entries and exits must have a Statistical edge in winning over a long term.

Hello, @emmanuel, excellent analysis! I observed that your strategy includes the intersection of two EMAs. Would you mind sharing the configurations for those Moving Averages and the candle color-changing indicator?

Very Very Thankyou for sharing knowledge

I noticed your chat; you've been on this platform since 2008, assisting people.
As a beginner, I'm curious about what steps I should take to become a profitable trader.
For instance, which timeframe would be most suitable for me?
Should I pursue trading full-time, or should I set aside specific times to review charts?
Currently, I'm a student with knowledge from YouTube and no practical experience.
Your guidance would be greatly appreciated.

I am new to this platform and don't know how to find #25Post. Please guide me.
Is this indicator available in any specific broker or free to use in trading view plateform (Shift+2 TMS pairs at London 6am, Shift0 the APB/HA candle)
EMA is widely accessible, but if you know of any platform that provides a more accurate EMA and other 2 indicators, please let me know as it would be helpful.

Hi

To learn about this platform you could perhaps start with the HELP - see above your chart.

So far, this is the best post I've read on this topic. But the flaw in all topics, without exception, is getting lost along the way. The owner of the topic starts his idea cleanly, but along the way he starts to mix several topics, leaving the topic confusing. A beautiful example of a topic that nowadays doesn't make any sense at all is Pivot trading. the author says: To operate my system you need to have 2 years of experience lol. If a beginner starts reading the topic, he asks to read his topic from beginning to end and his topic only covers a maximum of 10 to 20 pages. After a few hundred pages, the owner of the topic, in order to maintain the essence, summarizes what was important up to that exact moment. Some topics may even be interesting, but over time, they're just a bunch of random information.

Hi

The files on post 25 are indicator & tpl(template).
You use them on MT4.

Read from post 1 - Eelfranz's posts if you want to trade his TMS.
Follow the posts of Tommy too - here.

Brokers - just look at the bottom of your screen of this topic to see the list of brokers on FF.
Google "trading view" to get your answers on that.
Google "MT5" too - you will get lots of info.
Google the subject you want to know something about - including videos(Youtube).

You will find that it is best if you do some(most/all) things yourself - in the end it is YOU who do the trading and nobody else - so best is to do some research yourself(Also - read the HELP for starters! - there are NO shortcuts in the end.)

Go well / Mos
