What MAs are you using? They seem to be very similar to TDI.
Thanks,

DislikedProbably a bug. I make sure to click "refresh" before I consider entering a trade, as the refereshed version is obviously the true one. Here's the reason:
The way the TDI works is that any current candle will have to work against the TDI slope produced by the previous candle. Let's say our chart starts with C1 (candle1), which is a neutral candle (open+close is the same price). C2 is a strong down-candle. C2's down move will directly translate into a TDI down-slope which we see at the end of C2. Let's say C3 ends neutral, the slope...Ignored
DislikedHi TraderJak, do you normally enter as soon as the green crosses red at the start of a new candle? Or do you wait until candle close with green crossing red and then enter?Ignored
Quoting antantnz;<br /> Jak, couple of observations I'd make :[LISTDisliked[*]As noted, slope/angle of cross may not have been sharp enough. Definitely an indicator that gives you values to judge slope by could come in handy.[*]Cross occurred at approx 60, which means there is less room for it to move upwards. [*]The new candle is "inside" the previous one. When doing my analysis I've found that more often than not this is a good reason to not enter the trade as it often means a change / consolidation / ranging is happening. My strong preference is candles that are clearly above or below the previous candles, not "inside". [/list]Ignored
Dislikedthere you have it, after 12,741 posts, the mystery of the TDI is revealed, except he didn't mention what the MA's are.Ignored
DislikedIt seems to me that you know the values of MAs. Would you share it with us? One valid set of MAs for a certain pair (perhaps EURUSD) would be nice.Ignored
DislikedJust catching up on my TMS thread reading and came across your post. Could you tell me what settings you used for the MA's in the chart setup in post 12741 in the TMS threadIgnored
DislikedNice Trading Apom !
Thanks for putting together your set of Rules.
I use similar rules to yours.
I have not been using the TDI yellow line, but I will take a look at it..
I also like to enter when the stoch is in or near the OB / OS level and pointing or hooking into the direction of the trade.
Cheers.Ignored

DislikedThis is going to be a real newbie question but what do the numbers and arrow at the end of your chart represent? I see it on a lot of the charts here. Obviously something to do with the specific trade mentioned but the dim light bulb in my head isn't coming on hehe.Ignored
DislikedIf you compare the areas marked (and circled) as 'A' you'll see that they both refer to the same time period on the same date during an uptrend. However, my chart shows 2 red candles in the middle of the uptrend whilst yours shows blue candles all the way..... I am using the Synergy APB candles as provided on this thread for this method, are you using the same or is this another issue?

Second question, looking at my chart I have marked an area called 'B' that is just to the left of the chart you posted. Looking at the downtrend marked...Ignored
DislikedHi, greetings. I am new in this forum. I found TMS very appealing and learnt a lot from you guys. After reading most of your postings, especially Big e's, I would like to set up these rules for my demo trades:--
ENTRY~
Rule #1 on TDI, buy when green line cross above red line and it must be above or crossing yellow line; sell when the opposite happens.
Rule #2 On TDI, green line must be below 68 for buy; above 32 for sell.
Rule #3 on Stochastic, blue line must be above red line for buy; the opposite for sell.
Rule #4 on Stochastic, blue line must...Ignored
