Guys I took this sell on AU after 4 hour bar opened and indicated a sell, PA looks to be touching the mid TL. As the TL is ascending up, and daily trend is also up, I am only looking for a scalp trade back bottom TL. No other signals here a6 6 AM GMT

Any thoughts?

Picture 1 is a NZDUSD H4 TDI showing why I determine within a few seconds if a pair is viable...note all the TDI crossover signals in/near the "50" level. {image} Now look at Picture 2 to see what price was doing when the TDI displayed this behavior....not something we should be stepping into. {image}
Thank you Zoopots
Very informative ​

My FXDD broker is 1 hr 15 mins from candle close on GOLD which would be my decision point. If TDI cross holds, S/L around 1305 and TP near 1328.

AUDUSD, AUDCAD and AUDNZD all setting up for sell; EURAUD for a buy. All four need Aussie weakness to play out.
Only red Aussie news is scheduled for Wednesday.

{quote} Yeah its only 27 pips im down for the week. If I had just stuck to my rules I would have only 1 trade this week for 60ish pips profit. By chasing trades do to lack of trades how i use TMS I wasted a lot of my time this week and got smacked down. Overtrading, chasing trades = Total Noob Mistakes The two losers I took by bailing out of trades 1 went my way 40 pips. Now EA looks like its heading back to breakeven. I hate when that happens. Its like you are forced to close the trade because you don't want to take the potential full loss. So...
The EA trade you took was according to your rules, my chart (which is the same candles as yours) the entry was on the second candle and tdi had already crossed. What happened to your psychology? You set your stop loss, you set your take profit and you see what happens, the tdi hasn't given an opposing signal so play it out.

London is pushing AU up. Probably better to close. Candle repainted. BS.

Trading the H4 chart requires some patience...that was a hard lesson for me to learn six years ago. But I read a lot of contributors to this thread discuss lower time frame exits/entries which may work for them. But the H4 chart allows me to have a life beyond FOREX and still supplement my income. Here is what's working for me: I normally ignore TDI crossovers around the "50" level. Why? If you look at price action it is normally consolidating when the TDI is in this area and flattens out (we do not get the 10/2 or 4/8 o'clock nice moves as originally...

Zoopots:

Excellent post... someone who is in the know sharing here.

Folks, take some time and digest all these valuable details.

AUDUSD I entered short when price broke below the red box. It reversed back into the box. It still couldn't break my trend line so I'll leave it for the time being.

He's right. Sadly now is when Ausie pairs are disastrous. AU, AJ. Short from 68 and they misbehave badly :nerd:

Zoopots, thank you for informative posts.
Would you short AJ and AU now? TDI crossed in the 68 area.

You know, there were many cases where one's word could affect others trade. And before long people would start pointing finger "I close my trades at a loss because of you, see how it's in profit now?" yada yada. So do understand if some seniors don't give much feed back on live trades.

Zoopots,

thanks for this. Looking back i saw the same things u mentioned. Questions for you if you wouldn't mind . The current trade u have open, there was an tdi exit signal yet u remained in the trade, how did u decid? Because it was above yellow line or because it hadnt hit the overbought area at that time. Do u typically only eneter during elfranzs recommended times or no? On your losing trade ur exit and loss of -65 was based on SL? Or what exactly? I can't figure out your exits, as dumb as that may sound.

thanks so much

Direwolf, probably you are wright. I just wanted to know if my enter was legit. How about you? Still holding on to AU trade? It's pulling back now after I exited
