I think Big E recommends that newbie trade the London session.
I don't know how that fit into your local time where you live but it may take some adjustment to lifestyle and other work time schedule.

there are many chart examples posted by Big E with good explanation.

12-2 and 4-6 refers to the clock-face.

hello artic118,

I trade a system for 3 years using RSI/MA which is similar to the TDI.

What Big E shared here is a method. It is not a system and only you as the trader can make it into a system of your own.

Let me ask you a few questions before I decide to share with you my trade perfomance.

- how long many years have you been trading spot forex?
- what is your trading hours?
- which chart timeframe do you trade?
- which chart timframe do you intend to trade using this method?

kind regards,

Hello Emmanuel ,

hi thomi,

well, yes..you are quite right.
the market went 'flat' after that TDI H4 cross which I posted as example.
did you take that H4 trade setup?

where would you have entered?

where you would place your exits (minimum 2 exits)?

hi thomi,

I think your enrty price (EP) 1.28935 is too high after that H4 TDI cross setup candle. If you got EP near where the open price of that H4 open would be better, this mean your initial SL will be the last swing low.

what would you do when you miss the opening of the H4 candle?

I think you need to work on how you manage your trade exit management to get better profits.

Think of using multiple exits or scaling-out as one method.

Note the second TDI cross up yesterday worked out very nicely. Did you follow this H4 setup?

hello emmanuel ,

By looking at your image joined(contacted) furthermore pret I see that we have not the same cloture of candle on eur / USD. My cloture candle has 1,28923 while your cloture has approximately 1.28662! Know you why?
That's why you find my entrance(entry) too far not

This method looks interesting. I have used the DMI indicator, but looking at the TDI. it seems similar but gives signals earlier.
I have started to read this thread, I'm up to post #700 and that was only 4 days after the thread started. Obviously will need a lot of time to read the whole thread.
I have also looked at the last few pages and it looks like the posters that were very active in the first few days have abandoned ship. I have to wonder if this is because they were unable to make profits with this or maybe simply got bored with newbie posters asking the same few questions over and over again.
I will try this out on demo and continue to follow this thread. I hope to see some posts from traders that have traded this for a longer period of time.

Thomi.

Depending on the platform you are using, H4 chart candles will close at different times. That could possibly account for differences in entry levels.
I have set this up on an FxPro demo account. I prefer to use FxPro when trading the larger tf as it has true 4 hour candles and 5 daily candles per week.
The broker that I trade with has a small Sunday candle (only 1 hour long). Also the week closes with a 4 hour candle that is actually only 3 hours long and opens with an H4 candle that is actually only 1 hour long.
This will obviously skew the indicators slightly.

I am newbie and I wanted to create a new post but the best I could do was reply to an existing post.

I spent the weekend reading over the initial posts and doing some limited backtesting as I am familiar with Dean Malones's TDI. I started trading the Big E's method live today given the results I seen on the backtesting. I have taken the following trades (trade date Oct. 8) based on the signals and rules of the system with the following results:
E/U - 53 pips
E/J - 96 pips
U/CHF - 15 pips
G/Aus - 90 pips on one lot and letting the 2nd lot run.
E/Aus - 0

In future posts I will try to post some charts.

P.S. If someone can tell me how to create new posts it would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
