Hi All,

I just wonder, when i trade during sydney and tokyo times, it just seems that i lost almost all the trades looking for green cross red but somehow i still lost. But when i trade during london and new york session is the other way round! is there any explaination for this?
Yup - Volume, or rather lack of it!

I'm still having issues with the TDI indicator. My trade winning percentage is really low and I think I'm taking signals from the TDI at the wrong time. Here is an example from this morning. I took a signal on AUDNZD (H1). As you can see, this should have been a profitable trade since I got in on candle 2.

In reality, after taking this trade the TDI was drawn at the beginning of candle 3. Since candle 3 had not moved up yet, the TDI was flat. I followed the rules of the system and exited the trade. The TDI was redrawn at the end of the hour and...
Hi.

Looking at your chart, and thinking that you've entered at the beginning of the third candle, it looks like you already have some 20+pips. What are your expectations from a 1H chart on AudNzd? Phx62 showed us that a 50 pips on eurusd is a sensible target but the price doesnt always hits it. On AudNzd i think you should be a little more conservative.
BigE explained that as soon as he has some 15 pips + he comes to BE. That way it is hard to loose any money at all, even if some might think that you don't give the price enough room to breath. You know the saying "better safe than sorry"

Yesterday evening I shorted GBP/JPY and EUR/CAD based on the daily charts (see http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...71#post5199971).

GBP/JPY isn't doing so great: 100 pip stop almost got taken out today.
EUR/CAD hardly moved but is still looking to go my way.
(see screenshot)

In retrospect, I shouldn't have taken the GBP/JPY trade, since the TDI cross was between 2 and 4 instead of the recommended 4 and 6.
I took the EUR/CAD trade based on a bounce.
Not sure if I interpreted that one correctly.

Oh, I'm on demo by the way.

EUR/CAD
GBP/JPY
Closed losers
EUR/CAD -> TDI went flat -13
GBP/JPY -> TDI reversal (bounce) -80


Shouldn't have entered those in the first place.

New trades
Reentered on bounce up GBP/JPY. Small candle though...
Entered on bounce up GBP/USD. Good candle IMO.
Entered short on EUR/GBP cross down TDI.

Saw a cross up on GBP/AUD but IMO bad TDI angle and very weak candle. No trade.

Two trades today....the first candle of the Frankfurt session set a new high and then pulled back, leaving a long upper wick. That told me a reversal was about to happen. The opening candle of London went back up to test the high of the previous candle, failed and retraced, confirming the reversal. Entered after PA came back to the open of that second candle and the entry candle had turned red and was moving short. The TDI had already crossed at the open of the red candle.
The second trade was a simple TMS trade....a blue set up candle followed by entry on the next blue candle, following the TDI cross....both good trades.
