Hi Pips29, is it possible share your dashboard? My old dashboard no longer works with the MT4 upgrade a while back. And yours looks pretty similar to what I was using last year. Kind regards, Pat

{quote} I would advise that you go to post # 32,491. Maybe then you will feel a bit different about Bizzzle and why he is held in such high regard by a lot of people in the thread. With you saying how passionate you are about the idea of keeping to Eric's original TMS way of trading, you 2 might just have more in common than you thought.
I understand Bizzle perfectly well. We have a great deal in common I believe.

Hi Pat, I don't get what you want. What dashboard are you referring to?

The dashboard in the top right hand corner on your charts. Price, spread, pips to open, daily average. etc.

Trying to studying more about TDI lately and totally forgot a daily trade I entered.

EURUSD Daily TDI cross. +60 pips. Can no longer remember what I was thinking at the time of entry.

Mean while my h1/h4 trades are still a mixed bag.

Today I have gold H1, -12 and +50.
Entered the losing trade mid candle. When it closed TDI no longer crossed. Even worse when the next candle was red so I exit.

and AUDUSD H1, -20. shouldn't have tried to counter the up move.

Added position to this trade. First position was taken on daily chart when the high (4 april) was taken out. Was bullish from that time (few days ago)

dforant1, I somewhat agree with your message, and somewhat not. This is a long and complex discussion, I think. Just wanna say that now, when I manage more than 200k (including 90k of my own money) using only my instruments and my system, I can say surely that I will not trust this kind of money (its very much for a Russian, don't know about rest of the world) to a system like TDI-based. Or any system like that. But its only my opinion. If you make money of TMS - that's great, no questions asked. I couldn't well I could, but on 100 dollars. With...
I don't understand at all what you mean, if you can make money with TMS and $100 then you can make money with any amount. As any trader with that sort of money to trade should know, you are not "trusting a system with the money" you are trusting that you the trader know how to trade, and that holds true however you trade and whatever you trade with.

{quote}Not sure I understand the entries though?
Not surprised you don't understand cause my trades involve looking at dojis/spinning tops on the daily plus the 50 ema, and cci. As these are not what big E used, I did not want to mention these. I have p/o on this pair at the moment (N/U) . I am trading resistence and then monitor using TMS plus some other tools. I took the E/U trade based on doji resistence on the daily and lately I place some weight on reading currency strength, just trying to improve. Hope I did not get you more confused. Just to let you know, I have traded TMS since its inception.Forgot to mention, I love dojis and wicks

Just wondering where it'sallover is. We mentioned taking shorts on N/U and now could be the time as N/U approaches historical high and red news soon..I am hoping for a spike up to the high or thereabout and then turn south. GL to those intending to trade this pair

That is not true. It seems logical, yes. I thought that way too, when I was learning on low amounts. It can be felt only in practice and not imagined. Amount of money can influence greatly. Maybe you are the exception, then it's great.
I think the barrier here is about a yearly income. If your account is more than your yearly income it becomes different. Before that it's only imagination and "thoughts". I thought that I would trade the same and just set lots (volumes) in bigger numbers. I was wrong. It's a common thing in traders community. It is rare thing when trader has rather big "budget", maybe that's why some think that amount of money does not influence trader, or that big deposits only influence "bad" traders. It influences all traders.

And it gets worse with investors money .

Sorry for not good English and if I seemed rude. Meant no offence.
I wish profits and successful trading to all.

The signal was good and the time frame was correct, so you are making progress. Trade small and keep DD to a fixed dollar amount. Do these things and even if you are early you will still be able to recover. This market is in a tight range. Be mindful of correlations. For example, EU long and UC short is the same trade. Eric talked about knowing the little things when you trade. These are just a couple.
