{quote} Do you see why I binned my threads? Running a thread in an international forum is some serious work. I learned that. Keep the thread going. It is not about ego. People have different ways of trading the TDI, but it revolves around green crossing red at the correct angle. We have the tools now that Big E did not have, so we can have even sharper entries! My take is that everyone posts however many charts in whatever different TF they want. As long as our trigger is the TDI, it gives us the chance to choose what we need. I myself am...
Thank you I would certainly like to keep the thread going, so lets move on from here, we are not in competition with each other, we are out to learn from each other so lets keep it that way

Do not exclude and do not be a purist. I myself was guilty of that in my early FF days.

I remember.
Well done jmn5611 for being big enough and strong enough to say that.
As far as I know, we're all human so we ALL make mistakes.
All of our brains work differently so we all see different things and see useful help (or not) in different indicators.
We all have a sizeable folder in our heads entitled "Since I posted this my views have changed."
The tone of your post is excellent.
Thanks.
Thanks for your help, warmth and straight talking Heather.

I don't think anybody is in competition, everybody is trying to help. We just need to remember who wants the help and the simplest way of providing it without raising expectation until confidence and competence is gained.
Never argue with a fool; onlookers may not be able to tell the difference.

I started this thread because of a LOT of pm's from different newbies (and not so new) who wanted a thread where they could ask questions in a friendlier environment, that could get their questions answered, wouldn't be put off by their questions seeming "silly" and could be about any timeframe they wanted. We have a lot of different threads here related to TMS, we have the daily chart one, we have tms on m30 and we have the original which started off on H4. The people that pm'd me didn't want those restrictions and being told they should only trade...
Lastingwell, please don't lose your enthusiasm for this thread, I always see plenty of people viewing it whenever I get the chance to look at it. There is much really useful information here for us newbies, but as it is a more wide-ranging thread than MrAussies it takes a lot to digest the first time you see many of these tips. Thus if there are not many posts as you might have hoped for it is probably because us newbies are still making sense of some of it. For example Davits pivots look like a very useful and complimentary indicator, but it sent me off researching a) pivots and b) Fibonacci series etc... so I am only speaking for myself but I am not even close to asking any more questions yet!

I also hope Lookleft comes back as I liked his posts a lot.

Just placed a short on GBPUSD.

Reasons: Failed to make a Higher High, Cross on TDI at the 50 level, MBL pointing and moving down, H&S pattern? (even though the left shoulder looks broken), momentum on Heiken Ashi candles and bounce off R38 level.

SL: 39pips 1.5xATR(H1)
TP: 39 pips 1.5xATR(H1) which is also BRN(1.42000)

All advice will be appreciated.

Not taking this trade, just wanted to see what you think of my analysis of AUDCAD on 1H timeframe.​ Double bottom, bullish engulfing, TDI cross, S38 pivot, BRN(0.98000) All advice appreciated. {image}
Double bottom - not really cause PA didnt swing down on the first bounce - it more like a quad bottom if anytings .... its really a expanding wedge

bullish engulfing - for the JPY candle body only - not wicks [some trades like to include wicks]

TDI cross - looks like it was touching in ur chart

yes they r supp&res that i put in manually <- this is very important 2 me - i know how to make a supp&res indi but i dont tink that is a good idea IMO - u have 2 get ur hands dirty - smell the soil - before a trade

the color code i use is - magenta H4 - black D1 - blue W1&MN - i dont put in the H4 lines if i am on the H4 chart cause i can easily see supp&res

i hang the lines on important swing points like bottoms & tops - i use the close line [-hang on close line - get it] 4 this - here is a really nice example 4 GJ H4 - putting in D1 supp&res around current price
