one thing you will come to learn is no matter what system or method you use be it h1 tf or daily or m1 charts,,,it all gives you the same answer.
my hurst method H1 H4 Daily,,,,will tell me where price will go and so will clives m1chart

all to the same point

with respect ive just posted some good little pointers,,,,ive studied charts and trading for 15yrs and am now finally successful and comfortable in my life.
when i was studying every min i could i took every little bit of information and said thankyoufor a kind person who shared it.

never mind if off topic or not,,,,,look read and learn and take in all the information you can get.
you can never stop learning..

dave is looking for help and answers,,,follow along and learn....ok if not your ideal way fine,,,,but you learnt something.

one thing i hope people will remember is all the traders give help to the new learners,,,,i was a learner once,,,,im a guy who will willingly give back to the community what i took out.

but and there is always a but....

you want to willingly be my enemy then thats fine,,,,i dont help you period

ive done nothing to you my friend,,,but you have posted negative comments about me and also have selected to ignore me in your profile.

kind words my friend,,,,,get to know someone before you jump with your opinion.

ive taken flak on here from clive and others,,,,,,i take it,,,dont agree with it,,,but respect the opinions,,,,,,but end of the day i dont have to help you!!!!!

D/T with respect to the thread I cannot ask you to comment again on the trade, just do not want to upset the thread after the last session of turmoil, it just saddens me when any idea is presented in a informative manner that guys cannot do a little multi tasking on one thread instead of viewing thread after thread for info on different methods that can or cannot be judged as worth while. D/T just leave you with this I am a little took back that we looked at my trade with your TMA method and then you put up a chart of a different method that I understand and indeed it already plays a part in my trading also its nearly as old as me, but hey it works

thats great that it helpedFor newbies reading this.....believe it or no altho you want to learn 1 method....never turn away from information just cos its not ur method.Way i looked at it was it was just a jigsaw puzzle piece.One day that peice would fit into place.One at a time would mean tbe puzzle would be completed.Lets me go back a while.......i was told to forget indicators they dont work..learn price action.....i had 8 indicators...rsi macd cci alligator bollinger you name it....cluttered.I have hurst as a "roadmap" i have supply demand.....as a short cut cos normally draw my own....point is less is best.Guys think out the box.....ive not found anyone yet say........Hey 2 methods in this thread....ive tried putting both together and see if they can work as 1What about taking a bit from different systems and mix and matching to make your own?Guys just put it on your chart ...try it...use it or delete it....trial and error...thats what demo is for.AnywayDave send me private message...happy to do skype if you wish.Ps anyone im happy to help but 1 cross as in befreind me.....your history....it only takes once then trust gone.

D/T thanks for your view on my trade it backed up my view as I was all ready in it, 2, 3, 4 or how ever many methods all read the same, I come on threads to be open and up front with all my views (good/bad or right/wrong) just having a open mind to every idea that I see presented and boy I have seen a few, I have been trading longer than I want to remember with that in mind, with all due respect I will not be taking your kind offer up to go down the pm or skype route no disrespect intended I am to old and seen so much in this trading game to be taught any thing now, just favour keeping an eye on the latest fads that are in favour and doing the rounds, just think how old your Hurst bands or session method or even my Murrey are, not to mention all the others that get re hashed , just because they are old does not mean they have stopped working. the point as our good friend Clive as said what method works for one guy will not work for someone else, My friend who trades with Clive is the best trader I have ever seen and even he cannot get me to mirror trade his style, (how stupid am I), indeed just if I dare mention your problem with Clive thinking that he was holding something back, which I think you can see now was not the case, my hope now is that you can be welcomed back on the thread if you stop using words like enemy and such like, guys would be a little more open minded indeed even multi-task when a new idea is presented even our friend Godfire puts up charts with a lot of Udines methods on, and does not get shouted down and rightly so, wont go on any more I will just let the thread judge

Jason - as you don't have your own thread I hope Clive will indulge me asking these questions here.

As your TMA is not a true Triangular Moving Average but just an MA (usually LWMA) with 2 ATR bands around it, how do you cope with the fact that ATR is different for every pair and indeed different sometimes on a day to day basis for the same pair. Looks like you have decided on the MA being 14 period (that was the setting in the indi you posted in the zip file) and I wondered what led you to that. Is this how Hurst was originally calculated?

hurst was originally based on daily and weekly charts.Ive tweaked my calcs and not all are 4 period...some higher timeframes are 10 period.Ive painstakingly made profiles and gones thru all 28 pairs and have there own templates.These and all other trading systems.are on my main pc with my time capsule for instant saving.

clivepackham - i have got a question. if we have got spread 2-3 pips we put buy limit 2 pips above the last candle + spread? So it will be 4-5 pips above the last candle or 2 pips at all? Pairs with GBP for sure. So 10 pips sl isnt too tiny?
Here it is 8 pips and 22 pips with another pair in less than 5 minutes. Interesting...

Hi all.

I was testing this system today the first time, on a real account. I don't like demo trading because the most important factor of "emotions" is missing.

Not sure if I was today just lucky but the result was rather ok. I was trading from London open for 2-3 hours then took a break and then I was trading
the US open. Result was +149 pips on GBPAUD only. I did not watch other pairs. I think I took the trades pretty much according to the rules. I did not
read the whole thread so I might have missed some points but maybe it is better not to overdo it with rules. I trade already for many years and I know that
as more you analyse as more complicated and less profitable it becomes.

Anyway, if I am allowed to ask some Questions without being killed. Not to a specific person, just to all of you:

1.) On a bad day, when do you stop trading? I see that many guys here go for only 10-20 pips per day. Nothing against that, it is also profit. But
if on a bad day it kills you with -100 pips you wipe the profits of a entire week.

2.) Do you trade with two MA's or you use only the 35 one? I saw that the creator of the thread used one in the beginning, then he was trading with two and
then switched back to one again. I saw that with the second one (175) it keeps you away from very good trades but might also save you from silly ones.
Question is if it is overall better to use one or two!? I made today +149 pips with both MA's but with one MA only would have been more trades but for sure
well over +200 pips.

Don't get me wrong, I just want your opinion. I am not a rookie, no greed here, just want to know in general.

Thanks and have a great weekend.

{quote} Ok last time I ever load this TTindy up ever so last chance for anyone looking to use it... Heres how I set it up.. {image} You can set it up to show all 28 pairs if you wish or just the top 4 or one for that matter by adjusting the "showpairs" input, to open charts automatically set changechartsymbol to "true" and to decide how many to open adjust "topPairs" to how many charts you want it to open, I use 8 then click the "tile icon" on mt4 toolbar so I can see all 8 together or set it to 4 and then its quarters when you select "tile" icon......
Hi Clive, Thank you for your patience in putting up with the same requests and questions being repeated, as well as your many great posts.
I see there are at least 140 other happy people that have downloaded your indicators from the above post. Regret delay in acknowledging your post I have been away for a couple of days. I am going away for a few weeks now and plan to trade with this system on my return.
Best wishes, Thanks again and many pips.

Hello Clive,
I'm new here and hope this isn't me asking a daft question, but I checked page 416 post 8309 and did not see a download link.
Otherwise thank you for your contribution and I would like to dive into your system.
