My trade was @6am Gmt, good TDI cross, and the only support I had on the 4h chart was 1.5956, which as just been broken a few minutes back, currently +50, support/resistance is there to be broken

According to the rule, that entry should be 3rd candle from what i can see here. Any confirmation for clearity?

Hello all.

Like many other newbies i have been absolutely addicted to this thread for the last few days, in fact i am currently running a few browser pages, 1 for where i am upto in terms of reading the whole thread through and another keeping upto date with the latest posts.

Anyways in the last week of intense research i came across a website that contained quite an extensive list of MT4 Brokers and their GMT settings , not sure if it's been shard within this thread already (i'm only upto page 250) apologies if it has.

I am sure there are many others out there however i found this to be a pretty good starting point.

I personally am based in Australia however it contains links to MT4 Brokers worldwide:

Thanks again to all contributors to this awesome wealth of information!

If you took the trade at 6a.m. GMT, 50 pips above the next s/r, I see your point. Great that you've got +50.

But geobull's post:

hello friends! what you think GBPUSD? is it good short signal now with 4 hour?
was made at 08.53 (UK time), when price had dropped much closer - at approx 19 pips from the strong resistance area. According to my understanding of Big E's system, that wouldn't be considered a good entry point - that's all I was saying.

When the cross occurred, I entered on the beginning of the second candle

True, the timing of Geobull's trade was to close to the support

Though you win, but it is third candle from the daily open according to your entry point if you enter your trade around 7-8am gmt . The first candle was small, Am just trying to confirm your post and entry around 1.6001. Good luck.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't it when the TDI crosses it has to be on the 1st/2nd candle?

Congrats! Good job! I've not been watching gbp/chf since it's not one of the sacred 8 pairs.

I'm going to start watching it now

I have a question, if say for example I am trading the 1 hour timeframe and the tdi has crossed up so i am looking to go long but the 4 hour timeframe has not changed direction should i stay out of the trade? I know I shouldnt go against the higher timeframe but it doesnt make any sense since the smaller timeframes will change faster than the higher ones and by the time the higher one changes i might have missed the move?

The EUR/USD met my rules for an entry. Clearly the Euro was showing weakness against all crosses.

I waited an hour after the E/U to make sure the EUR/JPY clearly broke below and closed below the previous support . . . then entered the EUR/JPY trade.

Normally I would not take the cross below the 32 on the E/J. But, the clear break below structure and confirmed downward momentum of the Euro made it a low risk.
