silver....do you live outside of the usa, and are you using leverage greater that 50:1?
I live in Oz, 100:1 leverage. We don't have the same restrictive leverage rules that apply in US and Japan.
On my main trading account I must confess I don't go as hard as I do on the small account that I use to stress trade new methodologies.

could someone cast an eye on this for me please.

entry circled. any comments welcome.
thank you
You entered on the set up candle. Per the rules, that candle needs to close and entry should be on the beginning of the next candle, provided the TDI & Stochastic agree and the next candle is also moving up.

Mgs1f,
How do you set your stop losses with trading off the daily charts? What kind of money management do you use?
I use swing low or high for stops and never over trade my account usually for every $100 I trade .01 so if I see a perfect setup I will trade that pair .10 while taking smaller trades on other pairs for shorter times.

Sorry if i missed it but what happened to the yellow line on the TDI ? Has something replaced it ?
How do you know which cross to take besides trend ?
Look at something long enough, you will eventually get it.

I think I will follow the instructions to the fullest with one change.
I will only buy signals when the D1 is buying and sell only when it is selling.
This is with any pair, this will increase my winning trades percentage.
Growing the hell out of this account. Thanks Big E hope you are well.
Please disregard any other indicator in this picture.
So what is your strategy?? You only trade the E/U?? and only the daily chart?? or do you trade the hourly and four hour charts but only if in the same direction as the daily??

I'm gonna see how this goes. My reasoning behind it is this: not much resistance to speak of, good angle on tdi and both tdi and stoch are coming out of overbought territory. Although it is against trend on the 4 hour chart, I looked at the tdi on both the 4 hour and the daily and it is dead flat which suggests the uptrend on those charts is weak or stalling.
comments welcome.

Strong TDI sig and if it brakes the 85.55 it will be a go for at least 40 pipers to the 4hr channel USD seams to be weakening across the board too.
Good luck and hopefully you will get a cross on you 4hr to confirm

you have to put those files directly into m4 for them to work.

What I do is I right click on the icon for mt4 on my desktop and then I select open file location than there is a file called templates I would drag and drop the .tpl into that file or you can copy/paste. Do not put that in the template file located under experts that is the wrong spot. It is confusing because there is 2 template files.

Than you would click the expert folder and then you will see a folder called indicators. There you would copy/paste or drag/drop the indicators into this file.

Than close mt4 and restart it. Open a chart and select the #1 best 5 tdi template and there you go should work like a charm.

Or you could see it as a massive double top! I know you like to discuss personal "interpretations" of S/R.
