Here is another example where I see a H1 TDI Green cross the Yellow. This is also a H4 candle close, and the APB is blue and also the APB#1 candle. You need to look and see what the risks are. {image} Edit: another view using EURNZD H1 chart. {image}
Hi Elder Emannuel,

This was the arrow i was talking about and not the former tdi cross arrows. For some reason i cant inbox you but it seems you have worked on the synrgy tdi to your liking. If you can't post it public you can inbox me with it. I really want same one on your chart above.

Will be very glad if you can help me out.

Hi Esosa,

Please post a chart with question and I'll try answer that for the benefit of more people here.

Also, my post on GBPNZD was to ask to identify the risks of that setup at that particular point in time.

the same chart below:

{quote} Hi lddd, First, you need to know that no two traders trading the same method/system will have the same results. Last month Oct, I completed 51 trades, with 42 wins and 9 losses. Nett won 2167pips for the month. The trades were - GU, EJ, EA, GA, GZ, EZ, six pairs last month. These are for both H1 and H4 trades done with the D chart view. On an average, not more than 60 trades in one 20 trading days period. H1 trades - 5 per week H4 trades (multiple entries / multiple exits) 10 per week. I just viewed my account update via myfxbook, the Gain:...

Hi Emmanuel,

Your posts are always motivating us that success in FX is possible ................

Thanks for sharing this info. It inspires all of us. Just some more info if possible .

On an average how many pips you make on 1hr trade and 4 hr trade. how many pips (% of equity) as SL for each TF trade

So we can plan our trades better.

Best Regards

Actually you posted trades on this forum on EurCad and AudJpy so I presume those too are in another account.

No real time for trading again this week but managed to catch AJ on Wednesday for 100 pips, lovely divergence on h1 chart and a really good cross on both the h1 and h4 at the same time:

06:59:58.708 @TMSTDI_WatchDog AUDJPY,H1: Alert: [TMSWATCHDOG], AUDJPY, H1, Cross DN, Slope: -20.0
06:59:58.717 @TMSTDI_WatchDog AUDJPY,H4: Alert: [TMSWATCHDOG], AUDJPY, H4, Cross DN, Slope: -4.9

If I'd had time I probably would have gone to a lower timeframe for a retrace because of the large candle, but I had to set it and forget it. As I didn't have time to watch it hourly I set a 50 pip trailing stop.

Didn't have chance to take a screenshot when I took the trade so took it when it was nearly at take profit when I came back. It didn't reach the take profit because of spread and I debated whether to take it out, but although the H1 red line was rising afterwards (vertical line), the h4 green stayed firmly down so I left it in and it hit tp on the second try.

Hello Snarlyjack, good to see you back again, a couple of pics as promised showing a couple of guppy set-ups.

As you know SJ but some may not, the best guppy set-ups to look out for are where the shorter term guppies come back to the longer term guppies and then 'bounce' off and continue in the direction of the longer-term guppies. The shorter term and longer term guppies will then start to separate as the move continues. To help visually, at this point the APB bars will also have changed colour from red to blue or blue to red. If this area also happens to be a significant level, such as supply/demand, support/resistance, an area of liquidity where the banks are buying/selling into then that makes the short or long trade all the stronger. As always, easier to see after the pattern has developed but that's the sort of thing anyone new to guppies should generally be looking for as a trade set-up.

Imagine the Possibilities...

Thanks Tanglewood you have the possibilities down...I like it!

The enclosed chart is the gbp/usd on the daily chart. It just made a move from 1.71930 down to 1.56732 = _______

How many traders do you think were trading this on the daily chart & shorted the trade the whole way down following
the trend. If Eelfranz was trading this at $10.00 a pip how much money do you think he made?

If someone like me trading at $1.00 per pip how much money do you think I could make?

The idea is: be open to possibilities because you never know what other traders are doing or making?
How many contracts are they trading with? What would happen if they pyramid their trades down?
How many banks were trading the weekly chart and just followed the trend down with 1,000 contracts?

This is just something to ponder over the weekend...just to think outside the box...

Very good trade , like the explanation behind your trade, do you notice that TDI after PA pulls back, PA often comes back to form divergence or double bottom , I was not lucky to get that, after news I opened sell on GJ , targeting 100 pips, momentum picked, so thought the trade has room to continue the day down until market close, stayed into the trade, when PA started to pullback up, I waited double bottom or divergence to exit, instead PA went all the way back and stopped the trade at BE from 50+ pips

fellow tms traders,
I am currently using and quite satisfacted by the Synergy-PRO_TDI + the HeikenAshi_DM posted by Emmanuel, clean and neat.
I am just struggling with the thick lines of the TDI on the chart, as I keep 9 charts open on a 24" screen, and check them one-by-one maximized, but when they are normal sized, with those thick lines it's quite impossible to read well.

Considering that it would be quite 'impossible' to get the MQ4 file - ok, but - is there an alternative way to have an EX4 file without the hard-coded thick lines, so that anyone can set their liked line-sizes ? OR ....simply have an EX4 file with hard-coded lines but with regular '1' size ?

Anyone can help ?
Thank you so much and have a good weekend you all
Lorenzo
