No. Should it go in both expert and indicator files, or just indicator?
Just indicator file.
Did you know the profiteers like their money green?

I followed a youtube video for uploading the indicator file to the 'experts' folder, switched off meta trader and switched back on again, but it's not appearing in the experts list. Can anyone help, please? Thanks.
Select the Indicator you want to upload.Right click on it and then Copy.
Go to the Expert Folder click it and you will find indicator folder.Right click Indicator folder and click paste

How important is it to have the 4hr candles opening and closing at the same as E's? Mine open and close at different times but it seems to me that it doesn't matter? I'm new, so forgive me if that's wrong.

Different brokers use different time "feeds" therefore the candles although may look alike... the opening and closing of the candles may differ... use the trading methods taught here base on your broker's "Time" will suffice...

No offense taken, however, I had tried to work it out myself. Since it was to do with this specific indicator, I though it would be ok to ask here. We all have to learn, and I thought this thread was for learning.

New people have to start somewhere and I have very much appreciated the help. I understand that some of you have been doing this for a long time, but some of us haven't.

Thanks again to all those who were kind and patient enough to help.

Now that my indicator is working, I will only be addressing issues about trades and questions about the using the indicator. But I'm new, so my questions may seem silly to more experienced traders.

I was taking into account the comments by eelfranz in his OP:


We have a group of great traders who have been trading this method for 6-8 months already who will help you jumping in to answer your questions too.

I am very protectful of all our members. We don't have a stressful thread... no name calling allowed. I'll delete anyone who starts any problems. If you have a problem PM me and don't post it.

It seems that it is real easy for posts to get lost in this thread.

May I ask if someone can answer these questions for me?

Also, if there can be further discussion on the idea of waiting for a candle with a long body with wicks I would appreciate it.

Here is my post with questions:

Don't worry about the premodona's guys! "ask away", the only one you have to please is yourself. the only one that you have to impress is yourself. This is trading made SIMPLE. The only stupid question is the one not asked! Have a good weekend.

Entries are not triggered by the candle but the Tdi cross. To confirm, check your charts every 4 hours, 1 hour etc. depending which time frame you are trading. Please do not complicate things...TDI cross is all we need..

Great post by adeforex but I have some questions
…

How exactly are you gauging momentum?


So do you wait for the first candle to close so that you can see if it is a long body with wicks on both ends?

Regarding the image is the purple box an indicator or did you just draw that on? If it is an indicator can you share what it is?

I AM A LITTLE BIT BUSY, I DIDN'T REPLY YOUR MAIL
How exactly are you gauging momentum?
Yeah. I did post the HA candle that i always look for in good position, thats a candle with momentum i colored it to highlight it better and not an indicator) that's my trading style, anyway. I dont know your MM but i am targeting minimum of 150 pips/wk. If you want to trade similar as i do, look for some of those candles. Momentum is like a car moving at 180 km/hr (trending price) especially in a slope-down road (high impact as it will break and crush every barrier a head also as i have explained while illustrating close/high and close /low scenario). SEE JUST THESE 2 PAST WEEKS- TRADES I WOULD/SHOULD HAVE ENTERED OR CONSIDERED OKAY FOR MY ENTRY BELOW AT DIFFERENT 4 HR TF. 7 signals in 2 weeks (possible entries in black arrow as per HA MOMENTUM then also see the tdi/tms position)
I personally look on about 12 pairs of my choice and select the best (maximum of) 3 trades, if any, each for the week looking for at least, 50 pips per trade. I am okay with that anyway. if not i pass it on. If my SL IS 80 pips, (below signal candle/ or swing depending on my reasoning ) my initial TP will be 80 pips as in ratio 1:1 and can be adjusted as i like when SL moved to BE if in some profits as its trend further

So do you wait for the first candle to close so that you can see if it is a long body with wicks on both ends?
yes, i start analyzing my trade about say, fifteen minutes before the open of new 4 hour candle for possible 1-2 HA signal candle in good location. I hardly entered on the beginning of the first candle but i entered close to the end, just few minutes before new one. HOPE YOU ARE OKAY WITH MY EXPLANATION OF MY TRADING SYTLE
PRACTICE,PRACTICE AND PRACTICE TO SEE YOUR MISTAKES AND ADJUST TO IT
