Hi adihashyap,

I have done this for quite sometime, going back 2 years. I post my Big Picture Plan BPP after the weekend for sharing and discussion. I take the trades according to my BPP and posted them and I showed how I managed my trades. I know doing that had help a few traders learn and trade in live market following my BPP. I know they all trade with their own money management, lot size, etc. That's their individual responsibility.

The trading rules for TMS 5-Method is there and remains same. You can trade like how eelfranz traded as in Post#1 or you can adapt this same trading method to trade short term Intraday using H1 and M15 or you can trade the 4H Swing using H4 or you can do Position Trading using D1 charts. Your Money Management Strategy is up to you. I shared mine here and have demonstrated how it work in live market.

I do not know how the other new traders/members here think about my way of sharing in this thread and if it make any sense that I continue doing it the way I have done so far. I am getting very tired and have better use of my time in my other forum where there are more active like-minded participants and TMS active traders.

I know there are diverse views on this. So let me hear from more of you who are following this thread. Tell us what do you want and expect from this thread.

Look forward to hear from more people here.

regards,

Emmanuel,

I've been following the TMS thread for about 10 months now, live trading TMS for about 5/6 months, and while i have only interacted with you directly less than a dozen times, i cannot begin to quantify how much i have learnt from you. I think the time you put into creating your posts/charts/PDF/PM is clearly a large effort, and it is highly appreciated by many of us, including traders like me that do not post very often.

I think all your posts are very insightful and geared toward the newbie and non-newbie alike. There isn't a single thing i would change about your posting style or content.

There are many good contributors to this thread, and it is the sum of all their posts that make TMS a great place to learn/improve how to trade forex.

I truly hope you will continue to enrich this thread with all your insight and i also hope other silent readers/students of your content speak-up and let you know how they feel.

Thanks again,
N.

Emmanuel,
Emma, really grateful for everything you have done for this post, did not read before you send the reply, I've been watching all the big E to write posts, but different short remote perception, trading sentiment years Unable to reach the level you decades of experience, so I think you can share all your selfless experience is very great, so I learned a lot, before I just mechanically Big E in accordance with the rules given to trading on this is a simple yes, but only if you must have a certain technical base and experience before they can become simple, so accumulate in this process is very important, and your replies to accelerate the accumulation of what makes me a an important part, through you, I learned a WRB, MC also SYD-2H, TOK-5H these things, of course, is important not only to see the APB, but also the actual price action, I think is very valuable and meaningful , in order to improve my trading system has played a very important role, therefore, in addition to gratitude, I can say, I'm sorry, my English is not very good
Thanks again,

Hello Emmanuell7788,

for me its very nice to meet you,
there are different ways to see things on the chart, but you are doing a great job here.. thats sure.
I personal like the TMS stile you and SJ are teaching and sharing with others.
IF you post your BPP it helps others , may be a quick response is difficult for people like me , because
I live down under from your view ... in my timezone ...and if you have another forum I donīt know?

But I hope that you continue.

Have nice vacations down there

best regards

HPT

Things you should know about technical indicators before you use them. Let's start with Pivots.

For more information, you can bisit this site:
https://www.mataf.net/en/tools/03-01-pivot-point
also
http://www.babypips.com/school/middl...n-methods.html

There are some many different Pivot indicator found here in FF. Some traders use them in their trading systems.
There are also different ways in how the Pivot is calculated. The Standard pivot uses the Typical Price, while others use the Median Price, or the Weighted Close price and also variations of the OHLC price.
The Weekly Pivot for example is simply a Weekly 1-period Simple Moving Average set to Typical Price, Shift+1 and is use in the following week trading in the lower TF like H4 and H1.
The support and resistance are price levels calculated using displacements from the Pivot. Again different type of pivot uses different methods to calculate the S&R levels.
The Week' open and close price also impact the Pivot calculation. Different broker have different day open hence the week open and close will be different.

Below is an example using GBPUSD using Monday Tokyo Open as the Week open and the Fibonacci Pivot. If your broker platform uses Sunday NY open as the Week open, then the Pivot will be different.

Always know the technical indicator and what it was programmed for and its intended use.
After using pivots for few years in the COWABUNGA system, I have decided to drop it years ago.
If you want to use Pivot, make sure that you test it with simple rules and do 100 trades following your rules and analyse your own trading results. Then you repeat that the next 100 trades,. Complete 200 trades, then 300 trades and look if there is consistency in your trading results.

Can you use Weekly Pivot for long term Position trading which can run into weeks.

Good Trading.

Hi Jeff me personally would not enter that trade, there is support a little down from where you want to enter and, your yellow baseline (market sentiment is pointing slightly up. Just my thoughts.

USDJPY Week 46 10 Nov update;

Long term trading is bullish with play around the BRNs 123, 124 and 125.
Target August 2015 MN high ... buy the dips.

Pay attention on days when there is GDP data release and any BoJ announcement and also when there is 3 wisemen - Abe, Aso and Kuroda meet.

Emmanuel,

Your contributions to the TMS thread are very valuable. Without your dedication, the thread would probably have gone very differently and surely not for the better.

Your BPP posts are very insightful. All your intraday trading and trade management are following BPP. I know some members are afraid of offering a signal service but I don't really agree with this. It is very hard for traders to copy something and make money as it all boils down to trade management during the trade and to money management which is essentially different for all. (Including disclaimers could be good maybe ) I personally, would love to see more BPP with discussion on the market type even if you end up concluding staying away from a pair. For me, this is something I'm trying to work on. Not every pair is suitable for trading any week. This is can be problematic. Sometimes I expect too many good signals every week. It's important to remain realistic. Certain pairs are in certain weeks best suited for 1H intraday scalping, 4H position trading, D1 ME/ME trading or not trading alltogether. Knowing how to analyze this is important.

Your trade management posts shed a good light on how you trade. However, in all honesty, they vary a lot. With all your experience, you don't seem to be trading just one system but really a mix of 'systems' (all based on TMS) with different management philosofies.. This, I think, is overwhelming for new traders who should focus on one specific system. A lot of the information is very dispersed in the thread but it is the responsability of the reader to put it together.

I certainly understand this forum can be tiring. I guess the average experience of traders on the two forums you posts differs a lot. A lot of members come and go, a lot of templates come and go. Discussion never really goes any further than, is this entry good?

So, what do I expect from this thread. First of all, I hope it can remain active with friendly and helpful members. Forex trading is a challenging endeavour, especially for new traders and we should try to help eachother succeed in this business. I would like to see more BPP, not only by Emmanuel, but by everyone and discussion. Why do you want to trade this pair or why do you stay away from a pair? How are you planning to trade a certain pair? Why do you think A, B or C? Additionally, I hope that the proven traders keep posting trades, good or bad. I would like to see intraday trades with a view on the big picture also. If you took a 1H trade, how did you plan for it? Why did you arrive at 1H TF, Why did you arrive at pair XXX/YYY?

So, via this way, I want to thank you for your attempt to help us, new traders. Some will succeed, some wont! I also want to ask you the same questions, what do you expect from us? How can we contribute better to this thread? What would you like to see from us?

Best and GL trading all,

Hello All,
I agree with both sides i.e those for it and those againts it,but I am more on the side of those that agree with it.
Personaly I think what the Experts should do is to pick a pair or two only for this lesson every weeek while the usual posting remain as it is.
-Every Monday ,we would be given a general weekly outlook for those two choosen pairs............
-This would include , WHY the chosen pairs and their bias(buy or sell)..................
-Reason why the bias is chosen and not the other.................
-Continous mid week update we go on during the week......
-When and where to look for entry and why

-I think continous teaching like this would provide we the amateurs the thinking process and the way the expert uses thier THIRD EYE to see the chart.
-when the ENTRY is matured.
This two pairs would only be the onces detailed and progressive analysis would be made on.
"I also want to ask the same question,what do you expect from us to so as to keep the learning process going? "
PLS , PLS FORGIVE ME IF ANYTHING SAID HERE HAS OFFENDED ANYONE...thats definately not my INTENTION.
Cheers
