Yes I know how to drop indicators into metatrader platform.
But you need ms word to move apb.ex4 indicators into the system and I
don't have ms word on my computer.
MS Word is a program used for creating and editing documents. It has nothing to do with Metatrader 4 and nothing to do with copying and moving files.

Watch this video on how to install indicators into MT4:
Inserted Video


One can sometimes run into problems installing new indicators when running Vista or Windows 7. These have to do with the lack of write access to folders and/or folder virtualization. See these threads for solutions:

Michaelwen,

When learning any new method... follow the rules. Before entering trades make sure the lines are pointed in the direction you want to trade in... not flat. Be aware of the main trend... study old charts... trade Demo while learning...
So master Big E. you said. before take the trade, you need go to a high TF to find out is that your current TF trade against it ? example: if you trade 4hr TF short, you need go to Daily TF see the trend is also down, right?
I am at PST ( CA ) time zone. I need ask is , how you catch those set up before pass it. are you come back to computer 10 Min early before a new 4 hr bar start? or ........ thanks.

This is what I have...

I originally took the Synergy black, removed the yellow lines, added my 5ema, shift 3, typical and saved it to my template file.

Michaelwen,

When I'm online trading... I look at the 4 hour and daily charts for set ups. When I find one I look at the overall trend on different time frames to make sure they are going in the direction of my intended trade, I look to see the last hi or low and how close I am to the last... I look at my sheet of news announcements and their times, I look at my TDI and stochs for alignment ...then if I'm satisfied with what I see, I enter the trade. I'll come back every 10-20 minutes and check my Terminal box for it's progress... If I'm up 20-30 pips I'll set a S/L at B/E + my spread and just keep checking back now and then until I decide to exit the trade...

I'm off and online here and there all day. First thing I do is go up to PROFILES... select the my 5 minute set and 8 charts pop up... if no trades I go to 15 minute and 8 charts pop up... if no trades I go to 1 hour in my Profiles and 8 charts pop up, 4 hr & Daily. That means I can look over 40 charts in 3 minutes or less. Do you know how to do that? You'll find trades. Follow the rules.

I normally don't trade during the Asian session because it is slow... we want momentum in our charts when we're trading if possible. Look at old charts and discover the times during the day when momentum happens over and over and look for trades during those times each day.

eelfranz and everyone,

Can we talk about broker dealers for a second.

1). What do you think of FXDD as your broker dealer?
2). Is the commission that we pay to trade through FXDD
a big deal?
3). Is being an introducing broker an asset to us?

I love the synergy system and Dean Molone's videos.
I've have learned a great deal about trading, his system
and videos has shortened the learning process by possibly
years and I'am now showing a profit because of it. And I
appreciate what you and they have done in teaching us.

Is getting money back and forth to FXDD no problem? Will I
feel all kinds of warm fuzzies dealing with them? In other
words are they a good firm to work with going into the future?

Thanks for all your help and support!

Master Big E. thanks for the infor, and yes thanks to you I know how to set up the 8 pairs in one screen and save as profiles. I did exactly opposite when pick the trade. I look at higher TF first, work toward lower TF, and you start with Lower , work your way up to Higher. and since you are the master, I will try your way, see if I can have better result on my trade. thanks again for teach us.

Snarly-J,

We've answered these questions already.

FXDD is a good and fair broker. Spreads are fair. Compassfx as your introducing broker will go to bat for you. The FEW small issues I've had over the years I've gone directly to Compassfx... not the broker. They always get it done in my favor...

eelfranz,

Thanks for your answer!

Just wanted to make sure that I was going with the right broker and
compass fx. That is important for my peace of mind.

Once again thank you!

eelfranz would you have taken this daily entry today (Sunday 2/27 at 2:00 PM PST - FXDD)?

The line marked by the yellow looks like the setup candle vs. the entry candle but it opened under the 5 MA.

EDIT: I took this trade short at 6:20 PM PST on the daily chart. The price had retraced a bit from its original move down and the spread was a lot better than it was at 2:00 PM PST (around my broker's open for the week). My short entry price: 1.3435

No offense meant but unless I am reading Big E's post all wrong he says he looks at the 4 hour and Daily for setups. If he finds a setup he then goes to look at the profiles of his lower time frame charts to decide on entries.

As far as I know that is the order in which most traders work
