{quote} I usually check this six pairs plus AU. With EST timing and working hours, sometimes I will not able to check on my trade. At least, two or three 4H candles I may miss. Can you please suggest how to over come this fear not checking the trade and holding the trade. I think you are very good at LL-LH, HH-HL with TDI cross. Sometimes, I will take those trade but some how it will end up in loosing trade. How do you recognize the momentum for LL-LH, HH-HL trades? Do you check LFT or HTF? For the above mentioned six pairs, How many trades do you...

Hi mate, the only way to gain more confidence is from back-testing and more experience!!

What candles do you miss?? Because the most important for the 4 hour is 6am, 10am and 14:00pm GMT!!

Momentum you can recognize from the size of the Candles, also If each 4 hour candle is taken out the previous candles high for a long trade its making HL, HH and we are in a up trend....

How many trade a week? only the best set-ups... if you need to ask yourself should I or not enter?? don't enter!!

Patients is key
Give yourself a chance and trade it like it's layed out...

{quote} Hi Bizzzle I would like to ask you about pullback candles, they come in diffent sizes, forms and shapes, ie large, small, might be tiny too I am back testing and taking notes on these little creatures do you like have a plan a head that there might be a pullback next bar candle a head in time based on some rules or something and when they do appear, how do you plan to trade them, ie a cross of TDI is mandatory, comes at a key level only for them to be candidate.. etc Any thoughts on this pullback candle formation
A pullback candle only happens live in the market and at a close of the candle... Its PA!!

Most of the time pullback candles appear before a cross on TDI, So the best way to take these trades is with the Trend Or TDI!!

If the TDI is already Green over Red and we have a bullish pullback candles this is high probability... an example below:

Wheelbarrow joke: There was a man who had worked at a factory for twenty years. Every night when he left the plant, he would push a wheelbarrow full of straw to the guard at the gate. The guard would look through the straw, and find nothing and pass the man through. On the day of his retirement the man came to the guard as usual but without the wheelbarrow. Having become friends over the years, the guard asked him, "Charlie, I've seen you walk out of here every night for twenty years. I know you've been stealing something. Now that you're retired,...

kingdomk;

that is a compilation error in the TDI_RT.mq4 in the new Build600+

go back and delele the TDI_RT.ex4 and TDI_RT.mq4 in the MT4 installed folder ... \MQL4\Indicators sub-folder.

then copy only the TDI_RT.ex4 which you previously downloaded from this thread into that sub-folder above.

Can someone pls tell me which HAS (heiken ashi) indicator is used in the chart and what are the input values?

smilee89:

We see EJ made a huge move to break the Inside Bar consoldation last week. But PA consoldiates and remains in the rising channel and now support 141.14.
Several Hist S&R swing levels to look at this week.
TMS 4H will show the setups to take any trades this week.

Flaviu, I agree with you, and you should know that reading your post warms my heart immensely. I feel that in a forum, or anyplace in this world, anyone should be free to express themselves and to say what they feel. And if you need help, just ask. I almost left this forum a couple weeks ago for being chastised for doing exactly that...asking for help. Fortunately, the person who did help me also stood up for me. Thank you for coming to the right place, and for writing the right thing. Darran.

Oh, and by the way; in 1995 I was afflicted by something which at the time seemed quite grim. I was a regular "after-work" patron of "The Harp" (a small but wonderful Irish tavern on 72nd Street in upper West-side Manhattan) and I will always remember my friend and bartender (Kevin was his name) who gave me two very good, and very kind, words of advice: "Stick around." I just wanted to pass that on; being that was almost twenty years ago, and perhaps because today is St. Patrick's Day, ...I remember it, like it was yesterday.

There were posted many times, summary of all of Big E' post by other very help members here. You can use the FF forum papperclip and search.
In all, Big E made 463 posts in this thread. There are more posts in the other thread "Craig Harris Stochastics", it is where the 5-Method started. That 5-Method is now being discussed in this Trading Made Simple thread. When you have learned the 5-Method, you will understand why TMS was developed in a span of 2 years.

All Yen crosses are showing a bullish rejection of bottom of rising channels, some better than others but still!

At the gate to a factory, workers are inspected for items of value they might be removing. One man comes out each night with a wheelbarrow full of dirt, and each night the dirt is carefully sifted for pilferage: nothing.
The guard is certain something is getting stolen and says so and promisses not to arrest him if the man will tell him what he is stealing in the dirt.
“I’m not stealing dirt… I’m stealing wheelbarrows”
