{quote} Hi likica, was that a 15M trade?
I went long on H1 but hit choppiness. exit for 16 red
then jumped in the short set up on M15 which aligned with all red on tms 10 ema dashboard. Went out and came back with +39 green

Thanks for letting us know this is really important. The way I see it is you had the 4H & D TF against a long and the W TF is in consolidation so this doesn't stack the probability in your favour long - but! it does short , on a pull back etc... great flexibility to switch sides...

Interesting emmanuel7788 - the only basic problem with the bottom one is that traders may get confused and start comparing PA (from HA candle) with the TDI, green&red lines. This would be a problem because they are not related. Just like RSI levels are not related to Price (directly) right?

Well, looking atb yoour H4 chart, there is possible to scalp H4 when TDi cross. But since it is Friday you would like want to open 4H swing trades and leave them open over the weekend.

On H1, there is major news/tier one data release later. I would do what eelfranz taught us to do , i.e. to wait till after the news is out, look and see if there is price momentum and take a trade on H1.

Big Picture shows D is very much sideways and flat. If you have the Day Open on your chart, you will see that Day Open chopping up and down at quite flat 1.1300 level on your H4 chart.That BRN is your support.

Weely is trending UP.

Yes, you are absolutely right. Your know the basics well. That's why I asked.

Putting things together does not mean they are related in any way. Therefore, TMS traders must learn and know what each of the two components - the APB and the TDI are telling us when we are looking at them on our charts and see them in isolation and not be "visually impaired" by what is being overlaid onto another.

Visual trading can be dangerous.

Here you go. I also included the indicators used. The TDI can be set to produce alerts.

I can see what you want to achieve because you're a PA trader at the core, right...lol. So HA candle smear out PA and you miss out on important information. Rather, HA candles are indicators and also help with psychology (but I bet you have that under control). This is an interesting idea indeed.

I do look at Yellow in my own analysis.
Yellow's purpose is to tell you trend. A quick look at price also tells you trend. When both Yellow and price are telling you the same thing, that's the best kind of entry you can get.

Example of GBP/JPY H1 trade. Green nice level and heading down, Red heading down, yellow heading down, price also made strong down move prior to the trade. It doesn't get any better than this where everything agrees.

Now, don't dial down to smaller TF to manage your trade.
If you take trades from H4, manage it on H4. Or move to higher TF such as daily. Not the other way around.
