Sorry for the 2 posts, but right now I'm seeing this case, and I think it could be the "same" that in my previous screenshot (#56128, about USD/JPY). If I understand well, in this case I see a big candle (white rectangle), and his break on the 2 last candles. {image}
that is a H4 wide range bar and we do not take any H4 trade when PA is trapped within the high-low of this WRB.
that is market consolidation and we wait for the breakout. Same as the USDJPY H4 posted earlier.
we can trade in the lower TF H1 and M15.

GBPAUD H1 London open trades. The LO candle is an Inside bar of the FO candle, I place my entry above the FO candle as the IB breakout. Now Pos 3 is protected at BE before NYO. {image}
Nice trade, emmanuel. I took the appox the same LO trade with different TP's. I set the third TP just below the resistance area around yesterday's high which was hit.

No trouble sir....

I have also linked some trainings pdfs that Phx62 &Emmanuel put out... Re-read these over and over, they helped me a lot these are better than anything I could post tbh.

You should seriously read these over and over and really pay attention to the candle size they are trading and locations (I still refer to them every now and again)

{quote} Hi fortunemaker, Many traders use the 50EMA and 200EMA as dynamic support and resistance. But it will more effective to use them to look at CONFLUENCE with other common support and resistance and look at the price action. Below is an example using GBPUSD. To see how I did the entry, you have to switch to M15 and see how the PA reacted at the 200EMA on M15 chart TF. {image} {image} regards,

The information you asked about is all in the thread and has been addressed several times. The best thing you could do is read, study and search that information out. A good place to start is the paperclip at the top of the thread.
This time, I will answer this again. The indicator at the top of the chart is one that was developed by a friend of mine and I paid him to provide it to me. It is not for sale. There are similar indicators that you can find for free in other threads and doing a Google search.
The arrows and lines indicating completed trades are easy to put on the chart. If you are using MetaTrader charts, open the View tab and click on Terminal. Open that tool and go to Account History. Run your cursor to a trade you want to enter on the chart and hold down the left mouse button and drag that information to your chart and release the button. The entry, exit, SL, TP will appear on the charts showing your trade. For the purposes of posting my charts, I also drop a dotted line over the entry so readers can see the position of the TDI when the trade was taken. I also add the pip count just for the purposes of posting the chart to the thread.
Hope this is what you were looking for.

Hi fortunemaker,


First, Dean Malone who created Synergy Pro has a volatility indicator as part of Synergy Pro. You'll find it in the paperclip folder above. Secondly Dean has created an excellent free video on how best to use the indicator. You'll find it at compassfx.com under Forex Videos. The category to click on is 'Synergy Pro and the TDI'. The video is called:

TRO MULTI METER CANDLE COLOR RE-CODING

This indicator shows TF direction directly on your screen.

Re-coded this widely circulated TRO meter:
Hidden labels;
Replaced bars with TF names so no cluttering on the screen anymore (got inspired by Phx62's templates)!
Reduced M1 and M5 TF (hidden).

Any suggestions welcomed.

Read about TRO before using.

Hi Phx62,

Good trades too!

I kept my TP3 at 100pips using the buy script. It was my bedtime when NY open, so I left the 3rd pos protected at BE.
Trades got closed on target. It was a good day trading H1 yesterday.

Thank you emmanuel. I have another screenshot. In this case I am assuming that it could be a bounce (blue rectangle), because of this I opened a BUY position (vertical red line). Am I in the correct way? {image}

Hi mmarting,

AUDUSD H4 we saw a pull back from .07800, but with China PMI data release in about 2 hours this morning Sydney, there will be volatility later.
Wait and see if it will re-test this 0.788 and head further up to last week' high.
Note, AU is in a weekly range and its high is 0.7850. It can either test this high or reverses back to the low 0.7600.
When it is trapped in Weekly range, trading H4 and H1 is good.

Hi,

We had discussions with member mmarting yesterday on USDJPY and EURUSD H4 chart yesterday.
See chart below with details.
UJ show a breakout
EU still in consolidation.

These are examples how I look at real price bar size and determine if the TDI cross is a A+++ setup.
I always have the real price bar with the APB/HA.
This is my way how I interpret Post#647 and use that as my TMS checklist.

GBPCAD week 17 22 Apr D1 chart: A few of us discussing this pair today. What I see is there is consolidation now that the price action is supported at a Historical swing level around 1.8150. Too early to buy on D1 chart. Trading in the lower TF like H4 and H1 is better until we see the next big move. {image}

Nice move up during London session yesterday.
D1 chart show sign of a bullish reversal but still early in my view. So trading today is best to be on H1.
H4 is in same situation as UJ and EU explained in post above.

If you are trading longer term on D1 chart, I will wait till next week to see this week's completion because the MN is very bearish.
On D1 chart, I wait till I see both the TDI Green and Red are above its 20-day moving average and the PA is trending above the D1 PAC.
You have to consider position building when you trade longer term.

Good trading.
