{quote} Hi Emm, about TDI tickness better using 1 or double tickness? i see its made different
Below is what i found in BIG E notes:

"This is strictly a learning chart...

Note what happens on PA when there is a small line tweek on the TDI. (Green Line)
Learn to read it's signals and always look at the lines closely... I recommend making the red and green lines on the TDI a double thickness...Even with a small tweek you will know the PA is going to pause, take a rest, consolidate... what ever you want to call it. Click the chart 2 times for max. enlargement. This chart is setting up for a trade in a day or two."

Hope it helps!

Hi Em,

Do you know if Big E has tested the below or anyone? It would be very interesting to know the results...

"" Top of the weekend to you all ! Go to any 1 hr/4hr chart, just look at the TDI... now scroll back about 6-12 months. It looks like rolling waves all along the TDI.

So why not get in at the top or bottom of the TDI.. You no that price always returns to it's previous levels.

If you entered when green crossed the red ... and stayed in until it crossed again ... I believe you would make more pips than you think is possible ...""

{quote} Hi, use the MT4 provided Strategy Tester. simply setup your basic TMS template and saved that template name 'tester'. the strategy tester will always load this 'tester' template when it runs. then when you run the strategy tester, select Indicator and select the TDI version you want to run test. regards, Edit: add pic below example how I compare the TDI-RT set to the same parameter as the Synergy_Pro_TDI, and run the test to compare with the TDI R Red Green. {image}
Hi Emm, Thank you for your reply. Do you prefer the rt TDI to the original? if so why? I have the new TDI pro.

Hi,

I think his observation back then maybe be correct according to how oscillator characteristics. The TDI is actually the Fozzy RSI. There is a correlation between support and resistance seen on the price chart and also the RSI levels.
John Hayden explained this in his book:
RSI: The Complete Guide Post#27,110 by John Hayden
Trend Determination using the RSI (TDI) Post#26,774

Below is an example USDCAD.
we saw how strong trending USDCAD which started in Dec and the RSI went above the 80 level , in fact it reach the 90 level.
At the 90 level , there was a small correction, then in Jan the bull rally again and this week, it reach that 90-level again and a huge correction.
The short term traders who were selling in Dec thinking that USDCAD will fall were all slaughtered in Dec. The same happened in Jan, short term sellers were slaughtered. Some blew their small trading accounts.

Therefore, when we trade the higher TF like D1 and W1 charts, we build and add positions in strong trending market type. This is how we "let profits run".
Learn to cut losses short when we are wrong and not let our trading account go into huge drawdown and suffer margin call.

Have a good trading week.

{quote} Hi Emm, Thank you for your reply. Do you prefer the rt TDI to the original? if so why? I have the new TDI pro.

Hi,

I trade with non-MT4 brokers so I prefer to use the RSI on their platform and create my own Fozzy-RSI which is the TDI.
I use the RSI data period 10, Typical Price.
The Green Price Line is set to 3-period moving average.
These setting are the same as the Synergy_Pro_TDI.
I set my own rules for entries and exits.
I don't use Big E's rules for exit when TDI goes flat, hook back, etc.

see USDCAD example above post.

regards,

GBPUSD had not close below 1.4100 in the last 20 years. This week, it just tested that again.

Look at MN and W1, it is bearish. I want to wait and see how next week will close and also the month end before I take any buy positions.

My view on which TDI indicator to use.

I don't see it really matters, if the setup is clear and good it will show up on both, if you are debating with yourself which one to use, you are trying too hard and looking at low probability trades and setups that really aren't valid, if that TDI cross is clear, it will show up no matter which TDI indicator you use.

I've learnt the hard way, look at yourself more rather than the indicators.

Hello Emm,
have you ever trade H4 reversal?
Do you wait only TDI cross or you make a position when candle changes colour and price cross EMA10?

Hi everyone, I'm new in this thread. I copied the indicators posted on post #25. The Tdi, synergy, stoch slope, and the templ.
All is great I manually back tested it and I have good results. I tried both the tdi cross plus the heiken ashi candle to close below or above the MA to take trades and it works. I also tried using stoch slope to touch lines only(this gave me earlier entries most of the time but no tdi cross or ma cross confirmations) its more risky but u get in earlier.
Anyway, since I cant watch the screen all day waiting for tdi cross, stoch line touch or the ha to cross and close over MA I wanted to ask you guys if there is a version of these set of indis with email alert or better yet push notification alert for the cell phones????
I would appreciate it if anyone can help me with this.

thanks in advance,

I love your analysis of TMS 5 method. Keep it up According to my EW counts, GU should move up strongly in wave C for a minimum of 2000pips and that gives us a target of 1.64. I can post a chart if you want to see.
