Can someone clear up the settings for the guppy system. Stefan17 provided what appears to be all the files required, however when I open the template it does not show the targets only pivot points and the times appear to be set different to my location (Brisbane Australia). Also why a template for each open? on the other hand SJ has also provided the indicator however this does not have any EMA lines attached and only 1 template. Do I need one for each open? I would be very grateful if someone could provide me the correct settings to use this system knowing that I live in Brisbane Australia.

Thanks

Hi,
If I remember rightly
Open the Market Watch window in MT4 and change the indi setting so that the indi clock broker time matches the time at the top of the Market Watch window.

{quote} Hello Vpa021, 5 method is using the 5ema as your setups for entry and exit, you can look at Big E post to understand it better, take a look at the attached PDF. The 5 EMA(exponential weighted moving average) is the yellow line in Big E chart, it's shift +3 which should be in the EMA setting, its just to move your EMA by 3 bar in front so you can see the angle better. Good luck, Meihk {image}
Correct. And I might add that the EMA has to be set to typical price (HLC/3). And then...gentlemen, start your engines!

{quote} Hi Catalin, You are absolutely correct. I tried trading the way big E wrote in Post#1. That did not work for me too. Many other traders tried too, they could not achieve the results they wanted. We all went and look for training wheels. We found the "training wheels" To trade like Big E, you can only go as far as he went. He had 80% win rate and he had 20% losers. A few active TMS traders got together, we worked on his 80% winner and his 20% losers. We learned many things about the way he traded the H4 as in Post#1. Just my assumption. If...
Good morning, Big Emm!

It's good to know you are not just a professional trader, but also one who understands the needs of TMS newbies as well.

Enjoy your holidays, Big Emm! You deserve it!

As I previously said, I am trying the higher timeframes now, such as H4 and D1. H1 kinda exhaust me.

I entered a short position on EJ last night, as per the rules of Big E: APB number 2, sizable candle, TDI angle was good. I know TDI was not very visually appealing, with all that curling of the green and red, but I was only interested in the cross, that's all. As I explained in the "Trading Made Simple for Day Charts" thread, I was concerned about the 32 level. But I checked the W1, and upon seeing that TDI was not in the OS zone yet, I took the trade, aiming for 60 pips, which I got.

I wish everyone a great start of the trading week!

EDIT: Bad trade turning out well (selling into resistance)

You don't need to open them, if you're using mt4 you need to copy them to your indicators folder and then restart mt4.

Both setups look okay on your charts.
But it is Monday and the market is chasing after the gap after that, then will be the real action for this week H4 trading.
Manage those trades well.

Hi Catalin,

Just make my night stop, had my dinner and thought I read some posts and then reply my PMs.

Want to make clear that I am not professional trader. Professional traders trade OPM (other people's money).
I am retired and live off my retirement annuity. I trade with my hard earned money and also my children' and granchildren' inheritance.
I have people whom I meet on forum who asked me to trade their money and I don't do that unless I know them well in person.

regards,

{quote} Hello, Josh! No offense, but I am totally ok with being presented more methods to increase my chances in making more pips. Anyone can read all the posts of Big E, and trade accordingly, if they like. I, for one, tried to trade the exact same way as Big E did, and had no success. I need some tweaks. I am not looking for a quarrel, I am just expressing my point of view. I have faith in the guppies, and strongly believe they can make a difference and improve my trading. So SJ has my vote. Josh, no hard feelings, I hope. ...
Hi mate, no hard feeling at all!
You said you tried to trade just like big E and had no success, can I ask for how long did you try?
