Hello Everyone,

Love to hear your thoughts on the following AUDCHF chart.
Is it a good setup?

Thank you
geula4
Looks like a decent setup to me. I'd watch the consolidation areas closely, but from a pure tdi cross perspective, its good.

Yes it is very helpfull. Ty.

I have one quick question. I read the document with the zip files. Trying to test for the last one month. When I do the trade the LFH1_Short_Open or any other script to place the order it executes right in the test chart and I dont see the option box to change the Lot or Stop size.

I checked in the Tools option and the check boxes are same as the document. Any help on this.

Thanks.
KC.

Hey guys, I just added iTrend indicator to my charts and it doesn't really help with anything but I realized that it also can be used to escape fake signals or help us to stay in the position longer. I am just asking if you pro's think this is a good idea and will be helpful.

For example look at part ONE. Market was going sideways, TDI was unsurely going short, Stochs was facing down, and iTrend was showing to stay in a long position.

Lets look at part TWO. Market was going long, TDI was unsurely going long, Stochs was stayed flat in the overbought level, iTrend was showing go long.

Im sorry if my expalantion didn't make sence but I hope even if you guys not agree with using iTrend you understand what I ment. It might be useless to use on lower time frames. Any suggestions from pro's?

You are brave man mate :-) I mean... USDCAD makes me sick for days already.. That nice weekly downtrend but carving up... argh...

Today I was like a damn * coward.. afraid to jump in.. Afraid to take decision ... confused.. hesitating... At some point I gave up and said "Ok, today I am off.. just reading and watchin.." :-)

Just took a very though decision on it. I dont like the pair but i saw strong bounce on 1 hr time frame with a lot of resistance to go up. News actually moved many pairs today. If i continue thinking of excuses not to take a trade, i have learnt that many good trades will pass on and many bad trades will be taken. So far i net about 52 pips on it. I will keep eyes on the 4 hr for possible bounce trade later.

KC,
Good question.
This version doesn't allow for LOT SIZE adjustment (it doesn't matter much to me since i count the pips per trade...but thats just me )....however you may adjust the SL and TP on the Chart. Just double click the SL (red line) or TP (green line) and drag them to whatever level you want. For instance, I think the SL is default set to 20 pips. Once in the 'trade' double click the red SL line and drag it to 43, 50 98, etc pips as suitable for you.

Enjoy.

There is a good setup for short on NZD/USD both 1H and 4H take a look at the charts. The first candle is big enough. Lets wait for the first candle to finish and if second candle is bearish then enter the trade?

Mate, please dont complicate things. If you really understand how to use it, please do use them personally.Why ? because many traders on this thread are newbies and may be confused to carry on with that. Its nice but use it to your own advantage. JUST A SUGGESTION. K.I.S.S

It looks like a pullback on an uptrend...a good setup to go long IMO.

No problem. I just don't use regular clock faces. My watch and computer clock are digital. I have a hard time visualizing where, for example, 4:00 is.

Dean, It's been about a month since this post. I'm very curious if you are having real success now by following "the system". Thanks, Joe
I actually been trading mate. I have been a bit ill for the last month and in and out of hospital so I just log in and watch at the moment. I cant concentrate that well so its not a good idea to be trading. But if you are wondering if the method has merit...yes...try it yourself. It is something you need to fine tune to your own way of trading...the basics are there....you just need to adapt it to your own trading personality.

Personally thats what makes the greatest traders....you were undecided so you stayed out.....I think making that decision is 100 times smarter than taking a good trade...well done. Its something I need to work on.
