hi dean no average on the 1 hour sorry i dont even look at the 1 hours charts.. it makes me nervous. the averages are on the 4 hour time frame and i did 240 individual cross hair measure so i won't volunteer to do the 1 hour

Murry Math lines
They are basicly lines measured in 8ths denoting S&R. they are spookily accurate. with some indis you have to referesh the charts every few hours so beware.

Heres the indi i use. NOTE this indi is not being added to this system so please don't ban ME...
thanks for that indi...those lines are spooky

Are we to be entering the trade (all other things being equal) at the first/second candle after the COLOR CHANGE of the HA candle, .....or the first/second candle after the CROSS of GRN/RED in the TDI?

Thank you in advance for the clarification!

Dean the checklist is extremely useful. I have it printed off laminated next to my monitors, and use it to discipline my trades. And I'm very successful using it. Thanks.
thanks for the checklist dean

It probably is but its heading down towards a big number and the current candle is nearly closed so too late to enter really. tdi angle not great either.
Just opened your speadsheet checklist and its COOL thanks for that.

So this morning I got up at the london open for the first time, thinking I was going to put in a trade and go back to bed for a bit... Then I ran into a problem that if I would done some simple addition before I went to bed, I wouldn't have ran into... That being, I don't have a candle that closes at 2am cst. In fact, I have a 4 hr candle that runs from midnight to 4am. So, what I am getting at I guess, is 1. Does anyone else have this problem, and 2. If you do, do you still place a trade at 2am or wait until the candle closes?
im on est and have candles on the 4hr chart at 12 and 4am. i just take the trades on the closes of those candles. then switch to hourly at 7 am.

wondering if you could share the tdi 4 mtf indicator? i am actually also using ichimoku with this but will not discuss more on ichi here or it will make the thread go away from its original purpose.

If you add other things it will influence your decisions... usually to your detrament. Don't try to complicate it thinking it can't be this easy.

Simple is Good; Most of us were drawn to this thread on that thought. All the indicators we can add most probably won't make this a better system. If you stick to what Big E posted on page one of this thread you can become a successful trader. jmo

I guess to keep a system simple we should always be on the lookout for what we can SUBTRACT, instead of what we can ADD.

It sounds like that's what Eelfranz did when he created this system in the first place.

Its sort of like Bruce Lee/Jeet Kune Do, so you know its gotta be the right thing to do!

hi gerald ! yes i know you're one another thread with Ichimoku (i was there too)
the indicator you want is called Synergy 4TF
seems to be good and works well (with my kinoscalping)
but the basic system itself is sufficient
(but i don't know why i like to add indicators)

It's something we all have to overcome. Like crutches.
We like to complicate things when there simple.
We should only simplify things when there complicated.

Here you go. Just attach it, check its properties, change all da colors to none with da xception of da green and red and it should look exactly da way u want it.
Happy pipping

yes, i am going long on this on the new 4 hour candle.
I'm getting a little confused as to what constitutes an entry - my 11:00 CDT 4TF does not show a reversal candle but does show a TDI cross. The 1H is showing a reversal on both. Not quite sure why there is an entry on the 4H; not criticizing by any means, just trying to learn. Thanks, p.
