Nice to hear that some of the members are able to do well with this system .

My idea here to keep it simple without much indicators and each has got its specific purpose.

I have mentioned that semafor repaints hence i told that please confirm it in other time periods

A sun which is confirmed in all time periods is a strong sun u can keep minimum sl abv the sun and strike it .


If you are dicey or feeling jittery try it with .01 lot size and as u get confidence move big. if you are not in big trade mode do a scalp

As long as u make profit all ok . cheers

unimak, thank you for sharing!

I do have some questions:

Why do we need Heiken Ashi? You explained how you enter with semafor and TDI, but you never mentioned HA.

When do you exit?

How long have you been trading this system?

Do you trade only EURUSD?

You say that you go from M-5 to M-15, from H-1 to H-4 etc. But when you change your timeframe, TDI repaints itself. How do you deal with this issue?

Thank you!
Why not open extra charts with TDI, one for each timeframe!

Typical FF system jumpers, doing something different every week, cannot find anything that works, or stick with it long enough to make it work, or do any back testing to see if it ever worked...

It takes a lot for me to IGNORE you, but you can try.

What surprises me is how a system gets to 5 stars in under 3 pages or less. When it has not pass the test of time. By all means i am not knocking the system down at all, i am just observing the human behavior.

I have bee using the Semaphore for years and it fails when used for entry because of price action causing repaint. I found out first that I should only use it for taking profit when it apprears or to set a trailing stop.
The best way to use it is by drawing trend lines on the higher time frames and changing the color of the trend lines on the lower time frames. I also use two other indicators TMA with Distance and Crystal-Ball Signal which can be found on the forums here. I then trade the lower time frames.

More information, what do you mean it doesn't work?

Is it on the screen for a start?

Market is closed right now, so nothing is "working"

No need for that, I just downloaded everything posted in this thread, applied the template, then the Non Lag & secret alert, see the chart.

All working fine, I expect that it is a corrupted file or something you are doing wrong that is causing the problem, been using MT4 for long mate?

Dear Mark,
Thank you for sharing the useful Indicator. IM Hazeer From India. I am a beginner of forex trading. Its very useful for beginners. I have Some doubts to use these indicator. That are as follows. Could u pls clear out my doubts?
1) How we can fix the profit?"

2) Is it useful for gold trading?

3) As per ur suggestion I bought the pair when White sun appears, But the market was going down for 2 or more candle. I closed the trade due to fear. Same think happens when the red sun appears. Whats ur suggestion for this? When will I Buy and sell the pair after displaying the sun?
