I guess, it's you should know better what is wrong with your deal, because i don't really know what are your entry rules. If to talk about TMS, then first that i can say is that you took a deal on EUR/USD in the deep night, during Asia session, when usually market is ranging. Try to take trades only from Frankfurt open till NY session. If you want to trade Asia, it's better to take another pair i guess. You have to trade only when there is a movement on the market, stay away from ranging market. That is what Big E was saying: trade H1 only London session and first hours of NY session, when you see nice big candles, with wicks only from one side.
So you should find your way. If you want to trade TMS H1 then it's not enough to look only on TDI, you should also notice price action, support and resistance, trend, momentum - it's very important. Do your backtests and see when TDI gives the best signals. Here are a lot of pdf documents on the thread, you can download and read them. First of all you should read posts and pdfs from Big E and Phx62, they did very well using this system with TDI and PA.

Entered this EURJPY about midnight EST and it is not going my way, so far. Maybe Fridays should be left alone.

God, only 1 pip left to hip my TP on EUR/AUD and price stopped and moved another way and hit my SL ... very "nice" ... Didn't set trailing stop, which i always set.

Terrible results on 7/10 trading. 60% losers. TDI just jumping all around with false signals. I wonder what a person can do to avoid this kind of thing, because the signals on TDI and PA bars where there as recommended. Do you or any of the readers have any suggestions?

My trades on the week, time stamped, with balance. Some one asked about trading on Friday. Don't do it.

U need to back test a lot to understand how the strategy works, TDI will cross up , u enter the trade only to see it jump ing shift and TDI bounce on the other side

Lots of comments regarding false signals from TDI.

Lots of folks trading on lower timeframes, hence more noise / false signals.

refer to the charts and see what happens when you slow down the RSI & TSL

Day RSI 3 / TSL 8

H4 RSI 4 / TSL 9

H1 RSI 5 / TSL 10

One thing to concentrate on with the TSL - if it is a trend and has an established slope, ignore RSI crosses that go against the slope/trend - that should keep you in trades longer and avoid the false signals

I trade by the rules of the inventor of this method, he does not recommend trading on Friday's.
