I just opened the TDI mq4 file to have a read for the 1st time & the following is written: I understand our method to be Green over Red in BOTH directions - what is the story?? Trend Direction - Immediate and Overall | //| Immediate = Green over Red...price action is moving up. | //| Red over Green...price action is moving down. | //| | //| Overall = Yellow line trends up and down generally between the | //| lines 32 & 68. Watch for Yellow line to bounces off | //| these lines for market reversal. Trade long when | //| price is above the Yellow...
yellow is line 2 .

Long when green cross red at 32 for possible bull reversal
short when green cross red at 68 for possible bear reversal

Its better to long when green above yellow and cut red . Vice versa for short

its the fundamental of tdi

No more adding things to this method. PM me first always. If you can't respect and live with that... unfortunately you'll be banned... Every trader has learned the forex differently... you find things you like to do or use. That's great but do so without posting it here. We follow the rules only and that brings the members success... thanks...

People seem to have forgotten this,or simply do not care since big is is not around to implement this. SAD.

Hi Everyone,

Just drop by to say hello and to catch-up with this thread. Some 22 pages of posts since the time I left off for my year end vacation.
After spending time in very cold winter Italy, it is very good coming home to nice warm weather and settling back to home comfort is really nice. Home is after all where the heart is.

Taking this opportunity to wish everyone love, peace and joy for the festive season. Christmas came and we still in the 12-days of celebrations and the year 2013 will soon end and a brand New Year open for us. Thank you for being a part in my trading journey in 2013.

So sit back and enjoy this song lyrics below. Take some time and reflect what your achievements in 2013. Be grateful that you are able to read this post because it means you are in some place warm and have internet connection. Give thanks! for all over the world, there are people still suffering, the homeless, the hunger, the innocent children in war torn places without warm home and food.

Hi ALL,

Reading some recent posts, I see some very passionate members in support of TMS. Having passion is a good sign. These members know TMS and they support a proven trading method.


But lets keep our minds open to better things to come. After all, TMS is also a progressive method shared here by eelfranz aka Big E.
Big E started the Craig Harris Stochastics Method which was moved to the FF Commercial Content section.

Link here: Craig Harris Stochastics Method

In that thread, he gave us the 5-Method and the 21/233 Method back in 2009. This evolved to TMS which is by far one of the more simpler trading methods here in FF. Let us all work together and preserve the simplicity of this simple trading method and do so in honour for the great man eelfranz.

However, for the many traders who are new and still have not reach consistency in trading with TMS, my advice is that you be patient and spend more time to learn to trade the market. You can experiment with other methods and combine the use of other indicators and doing these will enrich your learning experience and knowledge. Ultimately you will come to a point where you will discover a winning system of your own. It will help you build a strong foundation when you learn the 5-Method and the 21/233 Method mentioned above.

Once you fully understood them and traded with positive results, you will appreciate much more why TMS will work and will continue to work.
For those trying out the Synergy models be it the first Synergy model, or the Synergy Advanced or the Synergy Pro models, you should know that these are conservative trade entry method when compared with TMS which is an aggressive entry method. Therefore the exit rules stated by eelfranz are important to protect your trading capital. The Entry and Exit rules designed according to suit his trading style and temperament. This may not suit everyone here.
The TMS method is simple and there is very little to share and explain the method. We don't need another hundreds or thousands of post to explain the method.
Everything you need to know are in the 463 posts by eelfranz. Many members post their trades here and we can learn from their trades and from their thought process how they execute their trades.
Some members added more moving averages to TMS when they trade H1 timeframe while others added more indicators when they trade D1 chart timeframe. It is all a matter of personal choice. In this thread, we should focus on the 4H trading they way Big E did so. Having said this, we all have the choice to selectively read the posts here. If you don't like certain members' post, you can simply skip them and/or put them on ignore is another option.

There is also the Trading Journals section where members can post their trades and others can follow and discuss there. My suggestion is to use that forum and you can have a more focus discussion group.

For new traders, you can post and ask questions here on TMS and I am sure the regular members will help answer and explain, or at least point you in the right direction.

Let's all be nice and accomodating. Let's keep the goodwill and true spirit in sharing and helping one another going forward.
Remember those words by eelfranz. He did said: .." You have to adapt this method to your trading personality. If you change it a little and your succesful... go for it. "
Eelfranz had an advanced version but he did not live long enough to share that with us. Very sad he passed away.

As for me, I had dropped the 5EMA since many months ago and planned to drop the APB from my price chart when I resume trading in week03/2014. It will be more Price Action and historical price levels for Support and Resistance. The TDI will remain in my core method with a minor tweak. Nothing is inscribed in stone. The market is dynamic so will be our trading method.

I wish you ALL a good trading year in 2014 with abundant R-Multiples profits and improve Expectancy results.

Have a Blessed New Year 2014.

Hello everybody,

I wish a happy new year 2014 to every member in FF and I wish you all the best with your trading results !!!

But also in the end of the year i have a question. Perhaps Phx62 is reading this. If not, so maybe someone else could help me please.

I am studying the summary of the trades of Phx62. Itīs called "Phx62 study IV" and i want also to have these green and blue boxes to show London and New York sessions. I asked it here and i got a indicator for my problem. The indicator is: BreakOut_Box_4_LONDON_OpeningRange_indicator.

I put it on my chart and it works, but i would like to change one thing. I have full lines, and Phx62 has green and blue dotted lines. His boxes are overlapping so you can really wonderful see where NY session begins, and where London session ends.

Can someone please tell me the indicator parameters which i have to use to get the same image as in Phx62 trades ?

Thank you very much and best regards,

FX94

I get a little frustrated when people keep adding stuff and then posting it on the forum. I repeatedly ask others to PM others on the thread with the new ideas and not posting them. At least PM me with their ideas... The main entry rule is: green crossing red on the TDI within the first 2 candles for an entry... I don't care what the red TDI line is doing. Did Stoch's confirm the TDI signal between the 20-80 lines...? The 12-2 and 4-6 is for the TDI and not the 5ema... that would just be a bonus... If you meet the TDI entry rule it doesn't much...

You have to change the code from STYLE_SOLID to STYLE_DOT. This will make the lines dotted, like what you're seeing on phx' charts.
