Hey J
I don't use PVA .... I use Better Volume which is the analysis of the bars using absorption and/or climactic movements. I've been a fan of this indie ever since I knew about forex. Still perfecting it.....

You will have to be a bit more patient, the people on this thread trade themselves. The way you have listed your trades means we have to go to our charts, and find where you might have gone in, and then comment. There was only 30 minutes before asking the first time and then repeating it.

Is anyone on this thread still trading pure TMS from page 1?
I know a lot of additions have been made/suggested regardless of Big E's requests.

If so, how is it working out? Success? Failure?

Hi Flinx,
I ve only followed the system for around a month, results are positive, still learning to stay with the trades though .( I did make a number of silly trades and it reduced my pips and I learned from my mistakes).
I see a few things have been added ( I guess we get bored sometimes and try to make our charts look a bit more interesting heheheh...) but the main thing is that we still follow Big E's advice that is green crosses red, 12-2, 4-6, while keeping eyes at PA....
I can not thank Big E and traders here enough for their knowledges and spending time here to share their views and experience.
I paid thousands of dollars in the past for a number of courses but my head was still under the water.... I know we are all individuals and act different from each other even though we might have been in the same school and had the same teachers. So I can't say my courses did not work well or maybe it was me that made thing went wrong...
Are you new here or have you been using TMS?

{quote} Are you new here or have you been using TMS?
I've been following the thread for around 5 months now and still cannot stay consistently profitable. I'ts very frustrating as Big E makes you get excited and makes it look so easy, and then I seem to fail even though I do all things what seems right!

Would appreciate more training materials posted if you could do it at all. Eg before and after trade, and showing what were the reasons for taking/not taking a trade.

Regards,

Hi Robuk, I did not get in (my partner did). Thanks for pointing out D range. by the way, my chart confirmed on 2nd candle so if i got in it had to be the open of 3rd candle, so is it not within Big E's rules? correct me if i misundertood it.

I guess perfecting the way this strategy is meant to be wont come in a short period of time, so it needs time to know every piece and whistles of PA and the strategy , so take ur time, now ur suggestion is good for those that are able to do it, post before, after and the reasons for taking the trade

I think I can share your feeling of not staying consistently profit as I have been there done that too.

I can share my humble experience as below:
- no trade when stoc/ tds at o/b and o/sold areas. always check D1 before entering trades from H4, H1 ( create this habit save you lots of pips)
- only enter trade with clear cross angles 12-2pm for buy, 4-6pm for sell.

Well, if you go over Big E's rules a few times again (just pretend you are brand new), you will find out yoursef why you failed to stay consistently profit.
take a look at my UCAD H1 I took recently and see how clear green crossed red, the 2nd chart is snapshot when I entered ( I changed it to candlesticks to see before enter my trades as u know i am still pretty new to APB).

I can only say that until I realize it is me who made mistakes and wanted to change....
All the best.

Yes, there are several of us here that are purists. We have the good sense to not fix what isn't broken. It is working out well.

May I politely ask why you use an indie that you don't really need, Kelly?

As I understand it , entry should be on open of first or second candle , but that's no to say it cant go further sometimes , just have to be a bit more carefull , I think
but I am only learner too , maybe more experienced traders will comment .Good Luck

So you have been trading 4H TDI crosses as prescribed in post 1? It'd be awesome to see some charts, before or after the fact, I don't care... I'm just trying to work into adding some "longer term" set-and-forgets and just very hesitant to put trades on and let them go, and it would be helpful to compare my reads with others that are doing the same.
Small disciplines repeated with consistency lead to great achievements.
