Here is a link to the TDI indicator. Install it in the indicators folder of the experts folder of your Metatrader folder. Then you'll find it in the custom indicators list, after you have shut the platform down and rebooted it.

I never knownly take a draw back of 40-50 pips even on the 4hr. I generally exit at 10-15 pips to keep my profit and I'll re-enter when it turns back. If it happens when I'M SLEEPING... SO WHAT ... I never know about it... S/L at last HH or LL. It turns out in my favor most of the time. I lose about 2 trades out of 14-16 trades. I can live with that. I choose my trades carefully making sure they meet the entry rules spot on... and pass on the iffy ones and go hunt other charts.

Aha!!!!............ BigE you have to teach us your money management techniques.... 'cause the devil in details!

Taking 15 pip profits?.... That's new to me.

OK.... that's a HUGE game changer. I've been sitting in a trade till the actual TDI signal. My Daily trades have been mostly loosers.... after being winners at one time!

The key to profitability is early profit taking... and then reentering.... am I right?

More MM details please!!! Big thanks

BTW if you can't be respectful enough to read the thread before asking questions you may not deserve a straight answer.

On your platform click on the view tab and choose navigator. You'll find TDI Red Green in the custom indicators list.

Its 9.46am here in Australia right now. I am looking at the 4 hour chart for NZD/USD. Is this a valid entry. To me it looks ideal?? Do I enter right now or wait until the candle closes??
Thank you

eelfranz, got some questions for ya... When you trade off the 4 hour charts, how much time do you spend in front of your computer monitoring your trades? Do you use a trailing stop once in profit? I wondering, because I would like to use 4 hour charts because it seems like there are more setups with smaller risk, but don't want to spend much time in front of the computer either. I realize I would have to wake up at London open, but for how long? Could I do it quickly and get back to sleep so I'm not a wreck at work the next morning?

Thanks in advance for taking the time to answer these for me. I would love to get on the 4 hr charts if possible.

Hi Big E... I am waiting on this pair also. It is one of my favorite pairs to trade. I also wanted to say thanks and I agree that this method should be kept pure... as it is. Someone else mentioned something about threads going sour when everyone adds their own touches. I agree. Besides I love the idea of keep it simple. Tony

hi Nate04, One thing that concerns me about entering a trade on the daily chart.

I use FXDD as does Big E. We are going into the trade at the slowest time in the 24 hr market so PA may not be reliable as much as say after London open.

Just my two cents. LOL I am still in a stale daily GBP/JY trade from last night
