I was wondering if you are able to send me links that'll show me how to get started using the method you discuss in this thread so I can have a good grounding.
pipharvest, we have a very nice little ebook here, I think it contains all the rules and all the links you need:

But I also agree with Guitarbloke, I think after you read the ebook, you should read the whole thread. If I were you, I would read at least all the eelfranz's posts.

One of the Russian traders (his nick is Shuba) created a new indicator-histogram, TDI_Histo.mq4

http://www.kroufr.ru/forum/index.php...html#msg144729

It shows the difference between the green line and the red line. When the green line crosses the red line the histogram crosses the zero. If the green line is above the red line then the histogram is above the zero, if the green line is below the red line then the histogram is below zero. The value of the histogram's bar shows the difference at the beginning of the...

The formula gives me a blank space in the indicator window!!! Any reason therefore . Please double check. Thanx

I have a professional trading my account and they too are consistently losing - 5 months in a row.
5 months in a row??? And they call themselves "professionals"??? Some people got the nerve...

I hope you've already fired their butts!

banco, it works just fine. Please check:

1). You have to have the original TDI indicator in the experts-indicators' folder. I mean TDI Red Green.mq4 from the first page.

2). You have to put the new indicator in the same experts-indicators' folder.

3). Please check the colors. The default color of the histogram is silver, so if your background is silver - you won't see it. I made my histogram black (see the picture)

Thank you Favorite

My Problem was that I renamed the TDI Red Green.mq4 in the experts - indicator folder with Eelfranz in front for easy reference. I have changed it to the original and now it works fine.

Thanks again

Anyone else catch the daily entry on EurJpy ?
Put on a long trade 15 minutes before the open of the new daily candle.
Good signal on the 4hr and a bounce signal on 1hr at the same time... shows how all the time frames can agree sometimes.
Up 68 pips as of now.

Any timeframe. The higher the better. And in your case if you only have a short time to trade definitely 4hr or daily.

Closed early for 132 pips.
Of course it went 30 more pips to my take profit target after I closed.
Nice trade for a slow holiday, hope everyone caught some of those nice moves going on.

If we can zero in on a indicator which confirms the high and low of the trend then when you combine that with the TDI then nothing like that. one get the best of all

so far i am demoing semafor knowing fully well it repaints but i am trying cloud burst to cloud bust in combination with TDI . Results are amazing .

regarding semafor repaint of cloud burst it happens then in the worst case the sl trigger hit is not more than 7 pips

so worth taking the risk , one cloud burst to cloud burst trade is enough to take care of 100 sl triggers .

let me know if any other indicator comes close to confirming the high and low the trend in anytime frame .

Nice Move with the UCf. I opened on this daily signal and caught a nice short move about 3 hrs into the new candle. I went ahead and closed with about 70 pips, since nearing the Avg Daily Rnge. Rare to catch a move this big this time of day.

I left some pips on the table, but I guess I just like to ring the cash register a lot.

Did you ever have times when it seems like YOUR MOUSE CLICK instantly causes the market to go the wrong way? And your trades always go into loss when you enter them?

I think one of the best things about this...

Hmmmm.. Yes, yes I have..

Here's my new trading methodology: It involves you and me coordinating our trades, and communicating our every move. First you go long, and a second later, I go short - and vice versa - rinse, repeat, 50/50 profit split, retire in Bahamas.

You can always adjust the variables in the indicator. I use only Periods 1 and 3, and set the middle one for None on the colors tab. Instead of defaults of 5 and 35 for Periods 1 and 3 sometimes I use 20 and 100. If you think the thing is likely to skip the exit you want to make just use a lower number.
