{quote} I'm the opposite, I struggled for many months to trade this system on H4 as Big E described... others seemed to be consistently making pips and I just wasn't... My turning point was switching to H1 and following Phx62's take on TMS. Other traders like TSS, LL and many more also successfully follow similar methodology in their trading. This just highlights the importance of finding what works for you...

{quote} Great trade Os , It looks like you took the trade just on PA as TDI has not crossed ( but does have a V reversal ){image}, can you confirm please or maybe I have it all completely wrong . I feel that TdI is sometimes a bit of a hindrance rather than a help , and I notice that my TDI is flat , don't look at all like yours .
Hi robuk thanks m8

Here is the image. Divergence RN Price action Pattern and the cross on H1 at 68 area.

i also took the aud/usd trade yesterday. I didnt post been busy all day. I got in and out quik because the long term trend is up on daily and weekly. I figured it would pullback like it did then resume higher. Was not expecting it to drop that much.

{quote} Thanks for that - helps me understand your analysis, though I don't necessarily agree with your interpretation of Price Action. At the time it wasn't consolidating at all, plus I think you are adding some factors/conditions that just weren't in eelfranz's original rules at all or just personal interpretation. I think there is a danger of reading into the charts whatever we want to see at times and hence the results can be impacted by our own experience/skill level. Not a criticism, just an observation about all traders. We can see the results...

You observation is correct.

Good Luck to you in trading made simple.

Hi Omonisha,

You took that H4 big candle very nicely and the way you use the 68-over bought OB level in H1 is super .....

Folks, when you want to use the TDI(RSI) 32 and 68 level fro trading decision, this is how you pick the setups at 68 or 32 levels.

{quote} there is no confirm D1 setup candle APB#1 because today candle has not closed. H4 was a good counter trend trade.
Stalked the USDCAD today and think it still needs some watching to see the PA on the bullish confirmation.

EURAUD is on bullish trend in D chart. Will wait for a good retracement in H4 and enter again.
GBPAUD sane sentiments as well. But will take on EURAUD for a better chance.

Going to stay out the EURUSD and GBPUSD pair.

**I am trading on trend on the D and H4 chart. Seeing more results now as I trade lesser.

Omonisha,

When you trade H1 frame, do you see divergence in both H1 and H4 to confirm the A+++ setup?

Hi Emmanuel,

In my observation, setups at 68 and 32 levels are usually get to bad trades and are also against rule of the Synergy method. Do you mean by your quote above, that setups at 68 and 32 are good trades when combined divergence? Could you please clarify? Obviously, I will backtest.

Cheers,

I have a new H4 candle open 1 hour ago.
Except for EurNzd, I don't see any setup in my usual trading pairs.

Anyone seen a valid setup on H4?

Hi okoso,

No, I was not referring to the divergence.
I looked at the H4 price action was bearish and then on H1 happen that the move was from above the TDI 68-level.

..............
My favorite plays are 32% up and 68% down on the TDI.

You have to check your TDI every time a new candle appears. OFTEN TIMES I'll check the current candle several times during the trade. Just my routine.

Do what works for you ..................

......

What I see ... Daily Charts

usd/chf - going short on the TDI 32 line? Not me.

chf/jpy - Going long near resistance? Not me.

I hope it works out for you...

That bullish Outside Bar BUOB has good price momentum. You should be able to get some pips off this one.

EN
But intermediate trend D1 shows buy
Would you sell on H4?

I thought we have to check that intermediate trend agrees before taking a trade.
