Erebus,

Thanks for the smack down but I don't think you looked closely enough at what I had said.

I had no problem getting the Sonic SHI to work on the D1 TF.
I was speaking about the "SHI_Channel_true_TRO_MODIFIED_VERSION" that dl4 uploaded. There is no input for changing the time frame. I've been fooling around with the code but not being a coder haven't hit the right combo yet.
I just use it as it is, set to see in all T/Fs, if you also put Sonic SHI on the same chart (any TF) they will match up. it is also set for 240 (4H)
my settings are AllBars=240 (4H), BarsForFract=0 this is the way i received it a long time ago and use it in all TF's. hope this is what you were saying.

Hello X-Man and all:

I followed you in Big E's TMS and like very much what you had to say there. I look forward to following, and contributing to, this thread.

Pips away...

If one cannot understand the tools that one trades with, how can one expect to trade successfully?
Thanks for your advice. I have changed all settings needed as suggested by all friends here, but at last we have to see whether it is matched with what X-man's mean or not. Johanesburg is at night now, just wait patiently.

My kind regards, Sativa.

I've been looking at jumping in at the TDI cross regardless. Then if I haven't limited out at 50 (or 40?) by the end of the candle I entered on, get out when it closes with one candle's worth of pips. That's only for the New York trade, though. We'll see what our fearless leader has to say.
I have spent the last several hours looking for a correlation between how the market moves during the Asian session and the London open. It is looking quite consistent that by the 5th or 6th hour of the Asian session, its a strong sign to how London will follow.

I need to test this MUCH further, but it follows your thinking..

Indeed, spyderman, I stand corrected
thanks, hope I didn't confuse the issue!

Actually Leona, I think there's more to it. The visualization only effects which timeframes the channel "appears" on, not what timeframe the channel "reads" off of.

You need to open up the indicator and under the inputs tab select the timeframe of 1440 for the D1. Then that will lock the channel to the Daily when you're on the H4.

I did as you suggested but don't like the visual so I reset the Daily to "0", is that correct?

That was not a smackdown, obviously you have not minced words with nubcake yet ?

But your post does show why most people really need to include most details into what they actually do post.

And for everybody following this column, please take a minute and read this special post on why a smackdown is a good thing

Also, I would also like to add, finding the perfect SHI Channel indicator with the perfect settings will not make or break this trading method, the market will still do what it has to do, and it is the trader that makes the difference.
It takes a lot for me to IGNORE you, but you can try.

Can someone tell me how to find my template that i saved on my platform because when i search in the templates folder i cant seem to find it.
All the indicators you need i already posted.
Its the synergy bars
4 ema shift 2
TDI
and the SHI channel

For the 1H method i only use the TDI and synergy bars
For the 4H swing i use the synergy bars with the shi channel and the 60EMA with 4 ema
You can find the saved templates in the following directory:
C:\Program Files\"your MT4 folder name"\templates, and then click the "Compatibility Files" on the above toolbar.
Actually, all saved templates on our MT4 platform (not copied & pasted from other sources) will be saved at:
C:\Users\"your user name"\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\"your MT4 folder name"\templates.
Hope this will help

Hey piprac,

If I understand you correctly, setting the timeframe to "0" will display the channel based on the currently selected timeframe. I'm new to this system so certainly can't comment on what's the best way, but x-man mentioned he likes the daily to show on the 4H. I agree it's kind of hard to see the channel. You have to back out the zoom quite a way.

Not sure if I'm plotting my vertical lines right on the 1HR..

I'm trading on oanda and to my knowledge our lines are supposed to be at the beginning of the London and NY sessions.. so it would be 3 est. and 8 est. that's only 5 hours?? but from the Original post it's stated to have your lines at 6:00 and 12:00 which would be 6 hours?

am I missing something? Are we losing an hour somewhere?

Ease up Erebus, this isn't your thread. Your posts here and elsewhere highlight your lack of respect for others as does your referencing the above post as support for your style.

You can always go start your own thread if you want to chastise and demean people... that is if they'll stick around.

The market tab on ff shows the London open 5 hours before NY open.
Since the original post, the author mentioned he watches 1 or 2 candles before the open to ensure he knows PA.
That's what I remember, did not go back thru his posts.
Hope this helps
