eelfranz,

I've been taught never have more than 2 indicators on your
charts. Moving averages, price channels, support/resistance lines
all being classified as 1 indicator.

That leaves 1 more indicator that I can have on my chart.
Would you get rid of or keep the "TDI Indicator" or the "Stochastics
Indicator"?

I'am trying to keep this as simple as possible but yet as accurate
as possible. Which indicator do you like the best the TDI or Stoch?

thanks

snarlyjack
I am very happy with what has been provided by both methods from CH and Compass. Use what works for you.

Hi Neo, I have just found a video on compassfx that answers your question. It shows a number of reversals with changed and unchanged candle colours. This is it: June 16, 2009 Trade Secret: Watch for the Swings!

I would recommend that everyone watch it, it is the very focal point of this system.

Kolin,

Thanks for the tip.
You're right- it's excellent and speaks to the heart of these 2 methods.

Big E,

Last year (late 2008) you were using the compassfx ADR calculator on your charts but I haven't seen it on any of your postings here.

Is it not useful for the CH-Synergy-BigE method or are you just using the Tokyo Channel to gauge where price is relative to the daily range?

Thanks again for keeping the thread alive.

Best regards,

JR

Chango... Thanks. It's such a dynamic way to trade that I had to share for the benefit of all. I love to see others become more successful..

JR... I haven't had the ADR Calculator on my charts because the main reason of this thread is the CH Method. And since I put the Big Numbers on my chart... pretty soon there would be no room for the PA candles. I prefer pretty clean charts and as you have also noticed I don't have S/R on the swings or fractals. It's just my style.

Less stuff on my charts = Less Stress. Can hardly wait for the markets to open. It's my only drug of choice.

When I strictly trade Synergy I have the ADR Calculator on my charts and I calculate on Sunday the target lines for the week using it. Why? The market always goes to them... that's why. Like money in the bank always.

Hope I answered your question... Big E

Is the ADR calculator available on any metatrader 4 platform? Or, is it something unique to Synergy? Do you incorporate this with the CH method? I love the CH method...

Hi go4pips,

You can find several versions of ADR calcs for MT4 at FF and other sites. Just search or google.

The Synergy one is for sale at compassfx but is different from the one shown on CH charts.

Once you've decided how you're going to use it, you can probably find a free version close to your needs.

Hope this helps.

Go4Pips,

The one from Compassfx is custom made for you.I depend to heavily on it to get another generic one... just like the TDI. Many times I remove it before posting a chart to the forum so you don"t see it. It causes less confusion on a cleaner chart when making a point.

It and the TDI are the only indicators I always have on my charts even though I may add another. It includes free future updates too. Only works on MT4 platform.

Just my 2 cents.

Hey DeepSouth... Welcome aboard.

Big E-I just want to make certain I understand...on your charts you have the TDI and the ADR calculators as your only 2 indicators. When you show us a chart, you delete the ADR calculator for a cleaner appearance of your charts. Is anyone else looking forward to the London open? Thanks Big E.....S~

Hello Mr. E

on page 2 i believe you provide the stoch indicator 5.3.3

in the template for the craigmethode is the stoch indicator 8.3.3 which he uses by himself.

does the 5.3.3. indicator has advantages perhaps instead of the 8.3.3 ?

greetings,

Hi Mr. E, thanks for your time here ! I would like to know how Dean deal with the news when he trade the first 3 hours of U.S. market ? Because you had already talked about not trading 30 minutes before and after news !

So like you know there is some news announcement between 2 to 4 times inside the first 3 hours of the open ! Thanks

I just found this thread this week end and am very impressed! Thank You Eelfranz for starting it. Great stuff! I have watched the videos and am most of the way through the thread. I will watch Craig's videos again when I finish the thread.

At the mention of a couple of posters here, I have made some modifications to the defaults for the Traders Dynamic Index (TDI), to keep them from changing when you change chart time frames. It was bugging me too.

TDI-RGo.mq4 - only shows the Red and Green lines. The others are still there, but the default color is set to None. Also, I set all lines to narrow.

TDI-TL.mq4 - Is the standard TDI, but all lines are set to narrow by default. This was bugging me and I think Pipcop mentioned it also.

PS. I am not a programmer, so can't do any kind of programming, but as a computer geek, I know enough to make simple changes to existing code.

If you have any issues with them, post here and I will get back to you.

Enjoy

Hi Everyone... ...On the other hand Dean knocks down 50-80 pips every day trading the first 3 hours of the U.S. Session. I've seen him do it live for several months in a row, day in and day out.... Big E
Big E,

Was this in the Synergy live trading room? Is it mostly Dean trading?

Actually, CH suggests not trading 30 minutes before and after the *first news of the day*. If you were to not trade 30 mins before or after *any* news (red, orange, or yellow)...you'd not be able to trade much. I don't know if there is a specific rule on regular news during the day, but from what I have heard and seen, it's usually enough to wait 5-10 mins before and after regular news to go back to trading.

Hey, Big E. Since you have already introduced the concept of merging both CH's Stochastic method with Dean's Synergy method...do you think you could touch a little bit on how you "strictly trade Synergy"? If you don't feel it's appropriate to go into that in this thread, could you at least touch on when and why you trade only the synergy method...and when and why you trade CH's Stoch method...and when and why you would merge them to trade them both?

The one (ADR caclulator) from Compassfx is custom made for you. It and the TDI are the only indicators I always have on my charts.
How much do they charge for the calculator? Is it part of the Advanced Synergy package? I'm curious to know which method you trade most, the CH or the Synergy, or both? You take the ADR calculator off of your charts when you're trading the CH method?

TIA,
NeoRio
