Trying my luck on Aussie 1H short TDI bounce. If it rolls over it will turn into a 4H set up - targeting 1.05. Price seems to be tiring to the high side. Just my thoughts.

...the TDI can and does move inbetween candle opens. It will even cross in between candles.
ive been wondering about this. ive never seen the tdi change mid candle, however ive recently switched to H4 from H1 and have had a situation where i thought the TDI had changed although i didnt see it happen. there was some discussion earlier in the thread whether we should be refreshing mid candle or not, i think E said not to.

Does any one know the math behind the tdi? is it possible that it is based on H1 candles, this would mean that H1 and lower TDI's dont change but H4 and higher change every hour? is that possible

Looking at the TDI code it is based on the time frame you are on.

{
RSIBuf[i] = (iRSI(NULL,0,RSI_Period,RSI_Price,i));
MA = 0;
for(int x=i; x<i+Volatility_Band; x++) {
RSI[x-i] = RSIBuf[x];
MA += RSIBuf[x]/Volatility_Band;
}
UpZone[i] = (MA + (1.6185 * StDev(RSI,Volatility_Band)));
DnZone[i] = (MA - (1.6185 * StDev(RSI,Volatility_Band)));
MdZone[i] = ((UpZone[i] + DnZone[i])/2);
}
for (i=limit-1;i>=0;i--)
{
MaBuf[i] = (iMAOnArray(RSIBuf,0,RSI_Price_Line,0,RSI_Price_Type,i));
MbBuf[i] = (iMAOnArray(RSIBuf,0,Trade_Signal_Line,0,Trade_Signal_Type,i));
}

Hi mate,
no idea baout the math but I think it was me who started that discussion. BigE said no he doesnt refresh.....but if he is flicking through charts etc it would refresh when he clicked back on to that chart. Thats what I found anyway. But it changes again when you actually right click your mouse on the chart and hit refresh. SO basically BigE pays no attention to that. Even if his WAS refreshing as he cycled through his charts, he obviously paid no attention to it.
Now Xaphod made the tmc oscillator to help out the guys that were having trouble with the original tdi (BigE uses the original)...and this one refreshes as it goes....or whatever you cal it......it constantly updates.....but a few of us were having problems with our entries using this one.....for me it changed the way I was trading this so I went back to the original as I never had problems with it. In saying that....Xaphod is a genius with this stuff and his one works for many.....I guess a few of us just got used to the original and th new one didnt work for us. Try both.

You still in your trade hawaii ? I find my self tiring to take early entry also at the right time ( s/r channel or pivot )....1.600 seams to be short term resistance here. I not in but watching close..Furthermore, careful on the a/u short it has a tendency to kick your ass, ya know...

Cheers!

Great analysis Dean, I don't refresh either ( per Big E ) simplicity is the key here...Although I do refresh after a hard day with a cold beer sometimes..

Still in - hero or zero. I scaled in so Im pretty much at BE - until it spikes up takes out my stops and drops to parity of course. I am generally a bit more patient with my exits when price just oscillates. There have been a couple of good Asian session runs down this week, but today doesnt look like it will be one of them.

If this was the start of the second candle with a little better cross (12-1) it would be a possible setup. Now its the third so it would be a pass.
