Just want to thank the members for all their insight on this trading strategy...My first trade is up 65% using this method!!!!!! {image}
Well done mate, keep it up!!

Just be careful of your Money management, I am guessing if you are making 65% in one trade you are over leveraging!
Give yourself a chance and trade it like it's layed out...

{quote} It looks like I was wrong regarding that eunzd H4 setup, but I am not a H4 expert... at that time I didn't see any further confirmation for a sell, however a few hours later I did find the setup on H1 with a nice recross below yellow mbl line and 50 level, and PA breaking below previous candle. hit tp +50 regards {image}

Very nice Imi

Here is a quick view on EU. The last H4 candle did not close with strong momentum despite the TDI cross, I dont see a good A+ entry. NY open in about 35mins. Nevertheless, if we take this setup, be prepared to bail out when price pull back and TDI goes flat. {image}

Always pay attention when market session changeover, e.g. London close, price pullback can be due to traders exiting their positions. The same one hour before NY Open, look at EJ H1 last night. H1 price pullback and some traders jumped in and buy. Like what Big E used to warn people.... M15, M5 too much market noise. Stay away.

Upwards flag, due to the lack of a bearish signal...it looks like it could climb further...I could be totally off base but I don't see a strong enough bearish signal on this to jump on it yet.

On this chart i see a possible retracement due to the upper wicks, BUT if you look at the higher TF (daily and weekly) Price came down to significant support and bounced and after doing the big picture planning, there aren't any significant weekly or monthly S/R areas nearby for a long, so i think it can go higher.

I took this CT trade on ej M5 , after H4 TDI has flattened out,
and H1 showed divergence with double bottom. My sl was set at 15 pips
and moved it to BE after +20 pips, took some time to reach profit but was risk free ride after that.

Lastingwell,

Would you mind sharing the ATR indicator that you have displayed on the upper left of your chart and the candle clock with pips? I checked the paperclip and did not see any that appeared comparable.

(or tell me where it is located in this thread)

I would be much appreciative

Thank You and Regards,

Hi, Need some help with this one - without referring to the thread I took the Sell trade on the 2nd red HA candle with TDI confirmation at .90229. Down around 14 pips but TDI still looks good with a deep cross from the 68. I see .90 as support so had TP set at .90049

My bias is go long eventually on this one, since the daily and weekly TF's to me are showing a long setup. If you look at the weekly TF TDI, green is crossing over red and yellow (MBL). and to add there is significant support that so far has held and bounced. Also something to keep in mind is after a sharp move in one direction, price will consolidate for some time. Since on the H4 tf the red and green line is above the MBL, i would look for a cross up. Thats just my opinion and im fairly new to this system, so take it with a grain of salt. I wouldn't enter yet.

I know this is not the ideal time of day to trade, but this afternoon I found a set-up I could not resist....actually on of my favorites. A pullback candle reversal formation (circle) and the TDI moving out of the oversold area with the green RSI Price line crossing over both the red Trade Signal line and the gold Market Base line (rectangle). That setup will almost always guarantee a good trade!! The trade took about 6 1/2 hours to complete due to time of day and low volume but it did hit my TP. I will be watching for a continuation or reversal at LO.

I'm not a technical expert by no means like some here, but that is why I keep 2 charts open. One with APB's and one with candles. If that's what your referring to.

I use the candles for entering and exits, although the APB's get rid of the chop and will keep you in the trade. (sometimes good and sometimes not so good)

Just my 2 cents.....

For those who are struggling with TMS and ask for help, you need to put some more effort and practice. My post was to help you learn and read price action. Then decide on those A+++ trade setup and you can then trade with TMS as the core method.

Trade Well!

the most obvious thing I see is a huge movement upwards with with a series of 3 consolidating candles - none breaking the low of the MC candle before it - so not enough of a confirmation.

On my chart and at the point of entry (diff server time) was after a push down but what appears to be a point of resistance now at .902

Believe me I have done nothing but read through this thread, many associated pdfs nearly full time for weeks now - my PA recognition is very limited so far so I have been trying to stick to the simpler rules of entry.

Hi, just giving a shot as i am not too confidence.

Based on price action, i noticed a inside bar followed by the bearish engulfing candle.
