{quote} Hi, Kindly tell us, which indicator is generating the top right table with Pairs information. Thanks I checked FastTMALine , is describe the trend line only.
Here you go Clives strongest/weakest indicator. It works on all timeframes, which ever timeframe your chart is on it will tell you the strongest/weakest pairs the idea was to trade the top 2 against the bottom two so giving you the 4 best pairs to trade.

Trouble is with this type of indy is that it can mean the pairs are oversold or bought so just make sure the trend is still in place when you pull the top 4 pairs up...

Good luck...

{quote} Thanks for that explanation of why GBPNZD is flying, I wandered why it just keeps soaring ever upwards??? But what I really meant was how can something go up the page 300 pips and I didn't catch a single pip??? Especially as its been in my top trenders nearly all afternoon???
I also didn't take the ride because there is this psychology aspect of TMA that it might reverse anytime since it already breaks beyond H1 & H4 TMA bands. For now I would add filters by target reversal in line with H4/D1 trends & ADR/ATR. When pairs are in top trenders list I look into values of M15 & H1 TMA slopes, if both values are at certain threshold I will ignore the TMA bands & trade with trends but right now I still haven't figure out the slope numbers yet :/

{quote} Hi If you mean the TMAs then yes it repaints constantly , but I prefer to think of it as updating itself with the most recent data as repainting suggests its unreliable. So if you're asking me are they reliable signals if its repainting??? I can only say to that I have been trading these TMAs for quite a while now and find them pretty good as long as you're trading in direction of the channel eg if its an upward channel buy the lower band touches if a downward sloping channel look to sell the upper band touches. The other thing to do of...

No its the super trend thats been apparently recoded so it doesn't repaint but I'm not so sure???

It looks good apres entry and I think its taking some signals off afterwards but some appear to work ok. I found it best to only take the ones with the trend and at the TMAs but I'm not convinced its as good at thee time as it looks...

Give it a go see what you think...

As for the arrow indy that definitely does not repaint as it just tells you when the CCI signals and the CCI 100% doesn't repaint...might go back to that.

Constantly looking for new indies and chasing the best one does not help. I just concentrate in what I have and learn from what I see. This works for me.
Although this traffic light Jason was mentioning would make life real easy in finding pairs.
Just my 2cts.

If anyone wants to try a TMA dashboard, the attached file is a rough and ready dash you can try for testing. This indicator is adapted from one made by gspe in 2010, so most credit goes to him.

The indicator uses the iCustom function and it needs FastTMALine in your MT4 indicator folder to work. It also needs the default setting of FastTMALine to be your preferred setting.

It is important the FastTMALine indicator is at your preferred default. You will have to open it in MetaEditor to make the changes then re-compile. I have used the minimum programming to make it work. If people find it useful it can be improved.

I'm struggling a bit with my charts at the moment and a bit confused as to what to trade and what not to trade but when I see charts like this 5 min TMA channel sells and buy entries I have to wander , would they be there at the time????

If I just take these entries identified by the super trend indy then theres some great trades here.. I'm not saying the super indy identifies them in real time it just illustrates here very well that outer band touches are working well..

I have little doubt that we are better off trading 1 minute signals from the extremities of the 5 and 15 min channels but I struggle to wait for the right signal guess I could just wait for the outer band alarms and see what it looks like but I'm a bit concerned that price doesn't quite reach the bands in the vast majority of cases.

How is anyone else finding these bands or channel trading setups???

Hi Clive.
Waiting, waiting, waiting....
Don't know if I am just being impatient or being an a***hole.
Just can't find a bloody trade inside the channels in real time. Afterwards I look at the charts and can't understand why I never saw the trades.
(Probably the latter!)

I've been trading these bands with quite a lot of success. I still haven't caught that 100 plus runner, but I am also quick to move to BE. I only need 20 pips a day for 1 percent. My live account is growing. I take the 5 min signal for reversals outside the 15 and 1 hour bands. I use the 1 min and 5 min to join a strong trend. I also look for round numbers and s&r. I take the signals when they come if I like the trade, and use recovery of they go against me. So in a nutshell, Im trading 4 pairs and making a min 20 pips per day. Trading these channels has been quite good to me.
