Had some fun over night with AU. entered two sell orders but both went against me so I just sat and watched.
Then I noticed the candle appeared to be forming a cone in a way I don't remember seeing before so I googled it to find it's called a descending broadening wedge. Found it on a site of a guy named Bulkowski along with how to trade it. Only thing is I put a sellstop #1 on the target because this pair's still falling. Took 10 pips of an hour later with that one, then thought blow it I'll try this again. Setting another sellstop. Woke up this morning to find sellstop #2 hit and the pair halfway down to my original orders. I just sat and watched my TPs get taken out. You beaudy

Note# I only do this if I am sure the pair will continue on in the direction I think it is longterm, in this case down.
Bad trade rescued

Negative, the timing not right. I was busy revamping my trade explorer, hehe... too much version of MTF.
So I took a early revamp changing from TMS-MTF to TDI-MTF. That's suite me better.

Another thing, though I got some green pips from last night, I don't want to get too overconfidence.
Need to rest settle, down and patience.

{quote} well done Amilate . what TF is that on your chart? seeing 2 TDI same shapes...not sure if I need coffee to have my eyes working
Err... I dont think you like it... I was in microscopic 1min watching during NY session. I took them when price exhaustion going to Big Figure. Passing Fibo level.
I notice the pricing heading that place 2 days ago and I am waiting. During NY market... disaster happened. I zoomed in once 5mins TDI cross, I took the bait. then when 15mins confirm I took another bait. That's was fantastic but exhausting and tiring. I manage to get a slumber good sleep last night after that trade. .

{quote} Thats some information Lasting-well, top tips from pro, I have been trading EU_EJ_EA_GU_GJ , yesterday GJ gave a signal short, GU already moved in , GJ suffered even tho the signal looked good, I didn't take it since EJ was suffering too, so I don't know if I took the information correctly but correlation is what am doing too
Correlation is good, but as with everything else sometimes it will work and sometimes not. The difference with watching UJ along with the others is that its not correlation but a mathematical certainty If you take UJ's price at the time of writing this 109.119 and multiply it by GU's price 1.63217 you get 178.100 which is what GJ's price is. So in order for GJ's price to rise, both either need to go up, or one needs to stand still and the other go up fast, or for it to move really well, they both have to move up. If they are both moving well in different directions GJ will only move a little bit.

{quote} I have been taking EU and USoil trades on M5 using 3TDIs between LO-NY session. Reasons: Eu has very small to zero spread which is good for scalping to collect 12-15 green pips. I found USoil has had decent moves for 25-50pips each. I was messing around with other pairs and bending my trading rules causing red pips. Whether trading M5, M15 or H1 or H4, we need to pay attention to higher time frame that is if there is a signal to go short on current TF but TDI on HTF heading up, we should not get in that short and vice versa for going...
my problem is I have higher spread to trade with. >.< USD/JPY have 4 pips spread.

Only really if you add UJ just to look at not to trade. If EU and UJ are heading nicely in the same direction then trade EJ and EU if you want to, if they are going in different directions then trade EU on its own it won't be worth touching EJ, same with UJ and GU, same direction, trade GJ and GU, different directions GU on its own. Thats why if both UJ and GU signal at the same time same directon I always take GJ because chances are unless both the signals are false, GJ will fly.

Okay Likica, I surrender been trying to nut this out all week I'm not using tms watchdog as I don't like having to reload it all the time. I use tdi-sub in it's place. I have the second on my charts, tdi-mtf. It's I can't can't figure how you set that last indicator, the one called traders dynamic index, if it is in fact a settings issue.
Traders dynamic is one I heard about and went looking, found it in one of Emmanuel's files in connection with pipware charts. Pipware says to use TDI, TDI has to have it's name changed to be able to use it in their software. I changed the name of the original red green tdi version to Traders dyn,,,,,, .Pipware works well, good and useful indicator in my opinion though I don't have tdi loaded in there right now, I prefer it in it's own window. Pipware's the indicator at the bottom of the chart.

It's just your version of Traders Dynamic Index. How'd ya do it, how'd ya do it.

yes I did a snoop on ya Emmanuel

looks scary what happens to the euro ... currently it looks as if usd continues to climb
but somehow it smells fishy because if a valid signal get in, it's mostly overbought so that only a small profit is possible.
it is a kind of scalping on H4 / H1 timeframes ...

I didn't know you could not get the 3rd tdi working.
download TDI_mft+alertsb600+ from the attached list, then from inputs change timeframe to H1. it my life saver bro. Can't trade without it. Hope you are on the way to collect green pips.
By the way, my 1st TDI and 3rd TDI both using TDI_mft+alertsb600+ (only change TF for the 3rd). not sure if it need reloading....? let me know once you use it. I m not hi tech , I trade what I see...
