Acheived using modified rules? If yes can you share the rules?
Notch,

Let me run it for a little longer and then bounce the findings of Paulus first.
It is early days and it may be curve-fitting because of the ideal trading conditions.

Hope it is OK with you, I promise I will share all the settings and my findings on the forum.

if the 30 and or 15 min is blue and the 5 min goes blue we have a signal

If the 5min is blue then the 15 and 30min go blue I havnt got a signal because Im entering on the 5min time scale

A typical scenario would be 5 blue 15 then blue as the trend develops perhaps the 30 goes blue..

THEN

5 min goes red and then when it goes blue again we enter this is on a pull back of the 15 and or 30 trend which has to still be blue

hope that makes sense cannot post for ahour or 2 now

Hi Paulus,

First of all, i would like to thank u for introducing this system and to Anne (TG) for simplify everything. This thread and system are great!! I've never seen a system so simple yet so powerfull.

Just need a clarification Paul, based on ur rules above, it means we're going to miss out some big waves, right? Though it also means we're going to miss out some false signals hehehehe

Attached is the signals I took on yesterdays EU, never mind the pips though, just the potential on the trade. Based on ur rules, trade#1 and trade#2 is not valid right? Or could you elaborate a more detailed rules like what if blue 5m and blue m15 at the same time?? I could back track some big waves missed with this rules though. Or is it better to take the false signal to see if they are false enough or not

Thanks!

I think so..what I understood before is, the rule that Paulus mentioned above is correct for Re-Entry the signal, but not for Initial Signal. For Initial Signal, I thought it is right that color change from 5M, and then 15M follow 5 M, the last then 30M follow 5M and 15M, then we got an Initial Signal.

Guys..please respond ! Thanks

that is what i thought? On a 5 min chart why would the 15 or 30 min trend change before the 5 min?

I've re-read this and now it makes sense.
Paulus is talking about trading after the pull backs.
For a long, he is waiting until they're all blue, waits for a 5 red which indicates a pullback, then trades when it goes blue signalling it is taking off long again.

Euro/usd signal now for a short, 5 min red for about 6 bars or so now 15 min turned red, is this valid? or have we different rules now, will stay out untill some sort of confirmation of rules.

Take the eurusd 5m chart below as an example.
My HG indicator has 5 top line, 15 middle and 30 bottom.
Price is below TM.
5 and 15 are already red.
So wait for 5 to go blue, then trade the short when it goes red again, because one of the higher timeframes is already the right colour.

I guess the question is: Is Paulus only using this method and only trading pullbacks?

Aaahh I see!! But pullbacks can grow into reversals, right? I mean if it pulls back far enough, soon it will be a reversal and M15 will change trend and so M30. And if we wait for another pullback in M5, the trend reverses!!! AAArrgghhhhhh my head hurts!!! Now im thinking anything can happens, anythingggggg, my head hurts more

1 min timeframe is great for scalping with right SL's, works good on all timeframes,

we got to be very mechanical and take these trades, no need to think about anything. Its still early days, but if we stick to the rules and let the indi do all the thinking and leave the rest.

No, it was not valid signal. You need all (M15 and M30) indices at RED, THEN STF indi goes to red!!

Sorry, if it is already irrelevant, I was been at lunch

Allow me to share the results of a visual backcheck I made of the last seven days.

Rules:
15m chart GBPUSD
Hours: 24 hours
Indicators: HG_0001a_MTF (showing only 30 and 60 min)
HG_0001a (15 min)
Enter long: Whenever HG_0001a is blue (not only at switchover)
and HG_0001a_MTF shows blue on 30 or 60 or both.
Enter short: Opposite to above
Close long: HG_0001a turns yellow or red
Close short: HG_0001a turns yellow or blue
No other filtering.

Result:
Losing trades in pips: 3, 10, 63, 25, 6, 35, 66, 19, 60 = total 284
Winning trades in pips: 33, 337, 72, 249, 165, 227, 82, 111 = total 1243
Net win in pips: 959

I have had many requests for help with exits. Like Edge's avatar, I have again been "Thinkin' Real Hard".

Attached is an indy based on the Hydrodynamic Vorticity idea I described earlier. This uses anticipated change in "Financial Reynolds Number" to give you warnings of weakness in the trend.

THIS IS ONLY AN IDEA! Please try. If you don't like it, don't use it.
