Hi, Plamen, wondering how would you have the bar chart, and Synergy candle at different window? I notice you posted earlier on, but i can't find it while I go through the earlier posts, can you repost it again?

Thank you very much.

cheers mate. Yeah I didnt mean to sound like a whinger....its nothing really but thanks for your well wishes.
I understand they are not part of the system, but trend lines and S/R are my main focus on the 4x basic side so this will help me. I tend to overanalyse and miss trades becasue I see too much S/R and I miss trades so this might actually make it clearer for me. Thanks for that.

Its a very simple strategy but just look for TMS long setups near strong areas of support/trend channel bottoms and TMS short setups near strong areas of resistance and the tops of trend channels. Just be a bit careful of weak angles on the green and small "setup" candles.

These are my 2 cents inputs for filtering H4 setups on this method :

1. look for D1 and W1 both having STO on the same side of 50%. (this define a strong trend)
2. wait for a H4 pullback (contrarian of the trend from point 1)-minimum 23% percent FIB retracement
3. enter after HA candle change color after the pullback pull back , indicating the return of the trend in the same direction as point 1.
4 (optional but high rewarding) drill down to a lower TF -H1 or M15- and enter from here setting target accordingly with H4 TF (0% and -27% FIB retracement/extension )

Hello everyone,
Hello eelfranz,
First of all, thank you very much for sharing your trading method with us.
I found this forum about a week ago, and I’m only on page 100. It’s only more 249 pages to go,…, but I have a question that I didn’t see it till page 100, and I can wait all that pages to continue studying charts. I hope you understand.
Referring to the rule of momentum, where you say 12-2 for a buy and 4-6 for a sell, you are very rigid with the formation of these two lines?
Is it valid also having a 13-15 or a 14-15 for a buy setup and a 15-17 or 16-17 for a sell setup?
Thank you very much.
Best to all.
Vitor Tavares.

Avoid 2-4h, it's weak momentum! You will be trapped, most probably it is ranging!

This has been answered a million times, don't trade weak angles on the green. You really want the angle to be as close to a 12 (long) and 6 (short) as possible, don't trade angles that look worse than a 2 or a 4. I aim for 1 and 5 angles or better.

Does anyone know what number on the histogram cross equates to a cross at 12-1 o'clock and 5-6 o'clock?

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Unless I don't understand the question, the answer is infinity. 0-100 is the scope of the histogram. At any point in time the RSI line could be anywhere between 0 & 100, which would not help in the "Clock Time" analogy.

Each hour, on an analog clock represents 30°, based on a full circle being 360°. Therefore:
1=30°
2=60°
4=120°
5=150°

What we are looking for are angles between 0° & 60° (12-2 o'clock) for a long, or 120° to 180° (4-6 o'clock) for a short.

Hope this answers your question.
Darryl

Hi folks, hope everybody had a good weekend.

Does anybody have any advice on what to do when multiple trades present themselves on the same curreny? Right now there are several good looking trades shorting the Euro on th daily chart - AUD, GBP, CAD, USD.

Do you go in on all of them regardless, and trust the system. Or do you just do one or two of them?

Thanks for your advice.

I asked the same question and was told to 'E' just goes for it, so this is what I do. Of course being wary of the differing s/r levels etc...

I am not changing big E rule but just more technical.
I BELIEVE MUCH IN MOMENTUM TRADING ALONG THE TREND...........
Most of the trades that gave me big moves are london season, then followed by american season.
Now, what really helped me more was the bounce trade on 1hr and 4hr. That is why my tp is around 50-70 pips. I am very comfortable with it. Over 80% of my wins are bounce.(may be i will stick to that, since i cant create the trend but follows it).As you can see from the chart here, if i am trading on 4hr...

Depends how much capital you have.

Usually I take 2 trades mostly mix of usd and then I try the other 3 in my demo just to see what would have hapend if its real. (Because one day when i have enough capital i will do all at a time.).
