Slow day, work's getting more n more hectic. anyway, took this buy on the H4. Nice cross up of the green over red, at the 32 line. not sure how it'll work out yet, but fingers crossed！ {image} Would love feedback on this trade, if any1 is willing.
seeing div there, however, I would need to see a decent size of blue candle before jump in a long, respect PA as always...
It's my 99cents view hehehe...
By the way, goodluck wtih your trade Froglicker

Overall every EURO pair trend is down...It is best to look for opportunity to sell rather buy....i think that is less risky...

Very lovely green pips!
I see. But the H4 shows oversold at 32 line, so i'll stick with this just to see how it pans out.

Thanks mate!
Will spend some time on this!

Edit: so basically a funnel shape that appears above or below the price & oscillator?

It is interesting to note that Trading view charts are a lot smoother that MT4 charts and dont give so many false signals. see below both on USDCHF 4 hour

Interesting. One suspects that trading view have direct market access, whereas is the feed from for MT4 is supplied by your broker!

An experienced trader suggested avoiding the STF charts less than M15/30 for this reason, unless you were trading futures contracts which are better regulated than spread betting.

I think Big E once suggested that STF's are where the brokers make money!

If you look again here on the USDCHF there is actually a bounce up rather than a sell signal as indicated in MT4

Looking at those I am inclined to agree with you, I think i will stick with the trading view charts.

Hey trader, I made two trades on the E/J pair. The first trade I made was because of the TDI cross above 68 and the yellow line. There was also a historic resistance level on 137.847 so I think the probability to make this trade was high enough. In the first trade I made just +21 pips. If I had more patience I would have made without problem 80 pips to the next swing point, so patience is key. The second trade I made was for +28 pips. It was some kind of continuation trade. In the second daily chart you can see that there was a main down trend,...

Hey traders,
Here are 3 trades I made on E/J. Firstly you see a D1 chart with the support area (black circle). You can see that I went long and unfortunately I exited a long trade on daily timeframe that I wanted to let go until the 137.847 historical swing point. I think itīs a good trade because we see a range (two black lines).
In addition the TDI is going to cross the red and the yellow line. Also the 50 mark is going to be achieved. So perhaps this trade will work. I will renter my exited trade ( -8 pips)
The second chart shows a H1 E/J situation. Here you can see the 3 trades better. The -8 pips trade was exited by mistake. I will reenter with a small position and let it go until Friday. So perhaps it will get the range of 80 pips. The white line is the support area. As a result I made a profit of 42 pips. Not bad at all.



Green pips to you !

Best regards,
Fx94

You may not be comparing like-for-like adrazz. Trading View candles are probably Heiken Ashi whereas TMS candles are APB (average price bars). APB candles, developed by Dean Malone, creator of the TDI, are based on HA candles but are different, a little 'faster' or responsive I believe.

I am comparing mainly the TDI as this is the main indicator for TMS entry the Heiken Ashi are not for entry just to get rid of the clutter.

Here are the steps quoted from a kind trader outthere ( in case you mised any)
1. Open your MT4 platform.
2. Click on File
3. Click on Open Data Folder
4. Click on MQL4
5. Click indicators

And that's it! you paste your indicators in that folder.

ah, make sure you close your MT4 and reopen it after you ve done all the copy and paste things as quoted by Adrazz

Good luck and happy trading!
