you should look at the market watch window at the top, that shows the actual server time.

or use this indicator to show on your chart.

Decide close --- AJ stuch around 38% retrace and AU 61.8


Did not want to give all pips back and did enter about 10 pips late

How frustrating to see, that I manually closed AU&UJ earlier today with -15&-10 Pips respectively instead of letting them give me 100 pips each by the end of the day. It's my first week trading TMS only, so I hope Pips will come with experience. I think my mistake was monitoring the trades and getting nervous. "Just enter and leave" is my strategy for the future. Happy pips to all!
Sorry for your loss hugecat.

This is what my mentor used to say - that it's not exactly set and forget. But rather, set and follow your plan. He said everyone are deem to make unreasonable decision when there is money on the line and emphasis us to always, always make decision before the trade and never play with your trade once you're already in.

What happened yesterday proved his word. I too would have made 200 additional pips instead of small losses

{quote} "Just enter and leave" Easy to say but very difficult to act, Sorry for your loss We both were in the same trade, Enter best setups and after entry trust your analyses and have patience. Big E mentioned to look for the head of TDI at candle close if its flat then see whats happening wrong, for me there was nothing wrong like no support nearby, no significant price action to jump out of trade, price was stalling just due to lack of volatility. For me that was not enough reason to exit trade. Maybe this will help you in future while exiting...
HI TP123,

Nice explanation.

Well its still a long road till I can dream of even a tiny one

Anyway heres a trade that was taken before the FOMC, I know this is risky, but since I saw there was a descending channel, and stop could be located just barely outside channel borderline and swing high, I took the trade

As soon as I entered , the trade went into red - 20 but soon it reverse into the direction of the trade and FOMC pushed it down and hit TP +70

Opened another EJ long, it was green from the open but ended up BE trade, TP location is wrong I guess, almost 1 pip to 50+ but reversed and stopped out at BE.

If trading keeps green, Yeah I can join the wagon

Good luck TMS

Only AJ shows a tricky signal on my charts. I think I'll stay away too and go back to sleep.

Although TDI has not crossed yet still entered the trade.

Reason : Gold is at major support on H4, TDI oversold and bouncing up, stoch already formed double bottom and TDI divergence.

small risk - SL at 1324.62, lets c which way it goes.

Can you tell me why you decide long the EJ trade since the 200 ema is just less than 20 pips away?
I know there was a TDI cross.
But there were few candles pulled back from 200 ema, like the Lo candle.
Thanks~~
