{quote} Hi hugecat, I think Big E’s recommendation not to trade when there is red news item is a prudent advice based on his years of trading experience. It is advisable not to open a new trade before those red news release unless we see a probability to BE the trades before the news release hour. For my case, I have different trading style and my money management and position sizing is very different from Big E’s. What is important to me is my trading plan for 4H swing and I base that on my weekly Big Picture Planning and looking more to the longer...
Thank you, Emmanuel. Your method is significantly different from Big E's. Does it mean that Big E's TMS doesn't work as good as he described and few adjustments should be made? Or can I still practice it and expect the promised results if doing everything right?

Hi hugecat,

Big E and I have slightly different style how we trade the same method.
He is aggressive when comes to trade entry and he trades standard lots at the same time he pulls out of trades using the TDI for exit.

I am conservative wih my hard-earned mioney, so I use the percentage risk model and I do position sizing. My exit is quite different as I want to hold my 4H swing trades longer and I do not exit when the TDI goes flat. I use the R-Muliple management and also the PAC for trailing my stops. I look at the PA candles, I can scale out and I can move my stops to protect my floating profit.

you need to understand this method and build into it with your own money management strategy and make it into a winning system of your own.

regards,

EMMANUEL

Hi All,

Just a quick possible plan on EJ!

50% fib with support, possible area for a long setup if it goes short that far.....

seeing bullish momentum in W1, D1 and H4, my view is the H1 divergence is useless to trade with.

in any case, when we want to trade divergence in the price and the TDI, we still should look for support and resistance to give us a high probability trade setup.

some of the Andrews Pitchfork APF channels are nice in trending market condition, while some are just either too steep or too wide to make any good sense use of.
here is a piece of my recent study notes on Andrews Pitchfork channel.

Can you confirm emmanuel that since MBL was below the divergence trade , so divergence, and mbl that they dont go in together, I mean the divergence could be avoided because mbl was acting as support and a short trade can be eliminated and just consider long trade is considered when pa set the trade

I have a same pa scenario on EU I think but in a downtrend trending market, there was divergence on H1 but mbl was above the divergence, pa traded a little bit high before reversing and continuing the trend have a look and let me know your thoughts

I just took this snapshot on EU while back testing

Attached is a GBPJPY chart on H4 and would like to get your advice.
I'm more into trading divergences and saw other members of TMS doing that too.
I do know the entry rules of TMS but I dont want to sit infront of my laptop most of the time and thought about a set and forget process which puts odds in my favor.
Sell stop would be placed below 100 fib, and profit levels are 161/261.
Any advice?
