Hi,

entry based on LO looks okay. except it is the 5th bar after TDI cross on H1.

I check higher TF H4 and there maybe a support zone below.... last week; high.
H4 TDI cross confirmed at the last H4 bar closed.... looks good.

we never know how the market will go, so we concentrate on management after we placed our trades.

manage well and get some pips out of this trade.

Good Trading !
ok Emmanuel, thank you for your councils

Thank you "easy".

I have pretty good results for now - almost 220pips in green and only 3 of 15 trades weren't correct.I hope i'll make more pips soon.I'm going to try Live Account in a month, so i can give myself a chance to check my confidence.At the momment i'm still buliding confidence on demo and backtesting data so let me study it a couple of weeks more, we'll see then.

If anyone is thinking about trying this system i can truly say it's worth it.The key to succes is patience.

Because i'm not available to trade the London open and i'm back home when NY opens i miss some good setups but soon it will change so i'm sure i'll take a few pips more.

If anyone has any advice for a new player like me, please just post it, i'll be thankful!


Greetings

Hi Freak,

That chart is AUDUSD H4 ( saved file name is eurusd)

Anyway, there is a nice triple top pattern emerging. Basic rule is to wait for the HA to close below the EMA5 for sell and TDI cross confirm. Start HA bar count, and to enter within the first 3 bars.
Personally I would not chase price if the candle is too long in relataion to the previous bars. Wait for retracement to get a better entry price.

How do you do your position size for the trade?
Have you determined where the logical stop loss is?
Where is the profit potential?
What RR potential is this trade setup?
How do you plan to manage the exits for such a trade?

Hi to eelfranz and all members,

I'm new to this forum and relatively new to FX.

I am very interested in your "trading made simple" system, however i am having some problems with the "TDI red green" file. I have put it into the templates file in my mt4 platform program file but when i go looking for it in templates on the meta trader platform it is not there. I have had no problems with the #1 best 5 ma tdi.

Sorry for my ignorance, hope someone can help me.

Cheers

hi foston,

first you need to learn how to use the MT4 trading platform.
Since you reside in Australia, I suggest you go to the ibfx au site and learn from those tutorial videos and know how to setup your tradng platform with indicators, templates, scripts, etc.
http://www.ibfx.com.au/Platform/Forex-Trading-Platform

the TDI Red Green.mq4 is an indicator, so it must go to the correct folder:
c:<mt4...>expertindicator ...folder.
<m4...> is the root folder where you first installed your platfom.

you have a long way to go mate.
So have lots of patience while you learn here.

Cheers!

Thanks for your reply, i am slowly getting a grasp on the MT4 trading platform, have managed to add the indicators now also.
You're right when you say i have a long way to go, so much to learn.
I have done a course with K2A which has given me a good grounding, but still lots to learn yet to be successful and profitable.

Thanks again

I'm always looking for 20-30pips profit.I never risk more than 2-3% per trade and i trade 0.05 lot at the momment so it's not much risky.RR in this trade was 1:3 so i could grab about 30pips (and i did), stop loss was set 10pips above the enter.

I exit the trade when i reach 20-30pips (even if there's possibility I can make more pips).Im using 4h charts so there are less fakes and i can trade more surely if there's good signal (TDI cross, stoch confirm, price crosses 5ema).If i don't see any clear setup on charts i don't trade - I wait for another setup so i could make a right entry.

Thanks for your reply!

Anyone have the updated settings that work best for the TDI? I've haven't followed this thread in a long while but use TDI as part of my arsenal. Has anything changed as far as the system itself? Any tweaks to the system? If you would rather point me in a good direction to get up to date, that would work too. Thanks everyone. Green pips to all.

What has helped me is watching the ABC's of VSA videos by a lady named Lauren Snedeker. She makes things simple and easy to learn. I found her videos on Youtube.

Dear traders,

I'm trying this system and I've a question about RSI variables.

Can you send me correct value for:

RSI_Period (13)
RSI_Price (0)
Volatility_Band (34)
RSI_Price_Line (2)
Trade_Signal_Line (7)

or other important value?

I'm using only

- Synergy APB
- Moving Average
- TDI Red Green

are required another indicators?

Thansk!

Only use the default values for the TDI - do not change these values

Hi friends,
a little question ;-)

Can I anter in "ALL" trade when green crosses red on the TDI at the beginning of that candle... (candle <3) or also if green bounces off red and continues...?

Are there another values to "read", before enter?
For example enter only (or is better) if TDI is near/out 32/68?
Can I enter in "all" TDI points?

Is it important yellow moving average (5 period) for enter in a trade?

Thanks again!
