Hello, Guido!
Thank you for your thoughts about higher TF.
How do you calculate your TP at H4 and D1?
Thank you again!
Just an opinion. Based on research

May be because I am new to this, I am kinda lost among all these TFs (Other newbies please confirm that I am NOT alone...lol). When I look at H1, one trade looks great and then when I look at H4 TF, it looks different (both confirmed with higher TFs). As working full time and stay out of choppy market, I guess 4Hr TF is the best way to go but we don't get many profitable crosses. Based on the WRB method that Emmanuel taught, do I need to loom for weekly bar WRB and trade on 4hr with that SR? I haven't tried that yet. Same thing happening when I am backtesting. If I would have traded based on 15m TF, it would be a killer plus but when I look at the same trade on 1/4Hr TF, I would end up in loss!

Senior traders, how do you select the TF to trade? Is it different lately because of Greece issue? I have seen lot of profitable screenshots on 4Hr crosses by Big E and Sesamstrasse just confirmed that it still works for him too. On Demo, I am currently sticking with 15m and 1Hr exclusively as trying WRB method breakout and reversals following Emmanuel's advice - when I see a WRB on D1, moving to 15m or 1Hr to see TDI setup.

Hi, everyone. I just wanted to thank everyone for keeping this thread alive and helping out all of the noobs. I have been trading the original TMS method for about 2 months and have about an 80% success rate. I usually trade H1 from London open to close. I have decided that I will start posting my trading charts to see if there is anything I can improve upon. Sense I am on the west coast I can't monitor all of my trades because I need sleep, so I had a programmer make me a TDI exit alert indicator. This alert indicator will send an Email, A push notification to your Mobile MT4 platform or an audible alert when the green RSI line goes flat, or check marks. It has definitely allowed me to get some more sleep. I am posting it here for anyone to use. Couple of things about the alert indicator. It works in all time frames except M1 because it reads every single tic. Just put it on any chart you want to monitor. You can test it on an m5 or m15 chart just to see how it works.

SignalBlockTime- Is calculated in seconds and Is used to block the sending of multiple alerts. This is so your mailbox or Mobile mt4 is not flooded with constant alerts after at least one alert has been sent.

Push alert - is used as an audible pop up alert
Send email - sends and email exit alert
Send push message- send an alert message to your mobile MT4 on your phone.
ShowInfo- shows RSI and slope info in the left hand upper corner

this trade failed to run.
to learn from this, you need to do a post trade analysis and learn from it .
just list 3 things you would do differently in your next trade.

- have a Plan A and also a Plan B... when Plan A trade setup fails, we activate our trade Plan B.

Hi,

80% success rate in 2 months is fantastic

there are so many different versions posted in FF.
which TDI version did you use in this alert indicator?
is your alert is based on candle close?
what is the RSI price type you use.. Close, Median, Typical or Weighted?

how many trades did you make in the past 2 months which gave your 80% success rate?
are these H1 trades or H4 trades like how Big E described in post#1?

regards,

Em, just a question for you in regards to the best entry when the 4H TDI crosses and alerts, what I do is once I see the 4H TDI has crossed (upon close of candle) I don't enter straight away. I'll zoom down into the 5M chart first and if the 5M TDI is pointing another direction, to avoid massive drawdown I wait until the 5M TDI also crosses in the same direction of the 4H then I enter.

What are your thoughts on this? Do you do this as well mate? Or do you just enter straight away once you get the TDI crossover signal on the higher time frame?

From the many PMs I get and now reading this post above, I think some of you may not have fully understood what the WRB is and how to use it.

For all traders who have day jobs and cannot trade the H1 charts, I suggest you look at the Day chart and plan your trades. You can open your trades on H1 at any time during the day when you have time to login into your trading platform. Start with a demo account and use that like a real account so that you can forward test and practice your money management strategy. Use percentage risk of your balance for each currency pair you want to trade and do your trade position sizing.

Do you know how to plan your trades using Day chart?

Do you know what is a good account size to trade?

HI,

The "best entry" is the overall average entry price and when all ME positions are at breakeven.

When you see a H4 TDI cross confirming a reversal, the lower TF H1 and M15 would have many candles passed and several H1 and M15 TDI crosses.

For the time being forget about using M5 for fine-tuning entries. Too many M5 candles in a H4 period and you will have several M5 TDI crosses in that 4-hour. Buy this is a good question using M5. I use the technical M5 TDI cross which I will not discuss here because many traders here still do not understand the basics of trading and trading with TMS 5-Method. Look at this favourite picture of mine below.

The fact is when we trade H4 and D1 candles, there will be retracement after the next H4/D1 candle open entry. It is what you do during the retracement that will determine the type of trader you are.

Do you know why Big E did not like to trade the Day chart? He did not like to see price retrace 50 to 100 pips against him when trading D1 chart. he prefer H4 because of several reasons. If you read all his posts carefully you will learn his reasons why he trade H4 and only those currency pairs. Then you will be able to trade like him. Fact is many traders cannot trade H4 the way he did. Reason is obvious.

I've done around 30 trades which is not a big enough sample size. I belive this alert is similar to tdi-rt or tms-osc. I've been mostly trading h1. I ve done a couple of h4 trades but for some reason have had more success on h1. The goal for me is to transition to h4. That's why I'll be posting my trading charts from now on.

I am around page 690, I read 10- or 12 pages a day. Hopefully I can improve my entries and exits. I do counter trend sometimes as long as I see some good price action and some big opening candles.

Hey Since ,
in fact I have clear exit criterias , flat TDI , candles getting smaller ,
market ran good and thereīs a " round number or a spuuort /resistance-- priceaction based .

The good thing is I trained it by demo for months .. stable and next to my real account almost daily .
this training gave me the experience to trade this way.. same way like Eelfranz did , I try and it works !
itīs nothing spectacolous but about 2 of 3 make profit .
and itīs a very easy and stable way foior me , I use an emergency stop , and I think it was never hit !
But I closed trades in minus !!! .. means not all trades went well !
I can recomment strongly the H4 and up itīs stressfree and brings some extra goodies.
Enjoy the weekend.
Guido

I can see that some of you scored success with this strategy. I also would like to test and use your system could you be so kind to sum up the gist of this strategy and how it works. The truth is that i am a little bit busy recently to read all the replies.
