I know this was addressed but I'm still a bit unsure. Do we enter at the beginning of the candle or the next one after the cross? How long do we wait after it first crosses? Thank you so much.
From what I understand the cross has to occur at the end of the candle... not the beginning of the new candle. I believe the candle in the pic below illustrates the question. At the end of the candle it hadn't crossed, but at the beginning of the new candle it showed a cross (Even thought not a strong one.) I think that this was not supposed to be a valid trade because the cross didn't occur until the new candle. (And yes, I took the trade contrary to what I believe the rule is....)

Hi Mehdi, Thanks for sharing your system. May I know your tdi indicator setting? because my indicator ( green bar ) looks a little different from yours.
Also can you explain more about your rule for sl ?
thanks in advance

Based on my understanding of this system's rules, I opened a sell position on AU H4. I would have entered the trade earlier had there been some sort of notification as it dropped significantly in the past hour or so. Anyways, I'm in profit right now; let's see where this takes me!

Here's a trade I made right before LO on GBPAUD H4. I exited trade as I had a feeling it might reverse due to its creating a new high. I made a few others right before I went to bed and had a success rate of 6/7, one of which I realized I shouldn't have even entered!

This trade gave me around 135 pips!

Edit: I closed my earlier posted AU trade 60 pips in profit as well.

Very good trading strategy!
I got my first pips by taking the trade around the 50 level of the stochastic and also have a look at my other custum indicators.

Thanks for sharing.

Hi Copresents,

you are right, sorry, but the result doesn't change. If i risk 2% on 41 pips and i have RR=1 it means with 41 pips i gain 2%. If i risk 2% on 417 pips and i have a RR=1 it means with 417 pips i gain 2%!
Anyway you are right, my fault, very tired today!
Sometime people feel great because they gain 800 pips... but how much they risk for that trade? If the stop loss was 40 pips, that's a great gain, but if the sl was 1200 pips, it was very little gain even with +800 pips. For me pips doesn't mean anything, what means is RR.
That's why i asked to Mehdi that has a great profit with this system, to explain us how he menages the trade, specifically SL, TP, BE, trailing stop if any, and so on.
With this trade i gain 41 pips that means 2%, maybe the next trade has a stop loss of 200 pips (2% of that trade), and i closed the trade at -100 pips (-1%). In total i have:
41 pips-100 pips= -59 pips, but still 1% of gain.
Sorry if i seem logorrheic, but i insist that MM is the first important thing!

No problem, you're perfectly fine. If Mehdi doesn't comment on this issue, I think we are only left to finding what works for us. In my opinion, as traders we should look for significant s/r/fibs/pivot levels in order to decide on entering a trade. If risk appears to outweigh the reward significantly, don't enter the trade. One of the mistakes regarding this situation for me is that if I see rules abiding the system, I'm quickly inclined to enter; however, what I do not always analyze are the levels and the zone price is currently in, which has happened to me in three of my trades so far.

Other than that, I believe this system lives up to its title in being a "stress-free" system as all you do is analyze the price and enter and forget. For me, if I am trading on 4H I usually check each candle to ensure that price isn't reversing on me. I'd rather check every four hours on my trade than have my trades closed 24 hours later due to a sudden reversal.

Thank you so much, Mehdi, for sharing this system!

Hello,

As you may now, money management for 4H and daily is not like lower time frames. You can read more info in babypips.com.
For me the worst trade was -120 pips but in the same day I got 270 pips from other trades which total is +150 pips. You need to find the best management for yourself based on your capital and broker.
I use easy-forex broker ( web-trader) . There I can adjust If profit is +25 change SL to +5. Then It will do this automatically. I do not have any EA to do this as I use web-trader, but you can easily find the a program to do this in mt4, (I saw this before).

I usually answer and write in the thread for one or twice a week, because I have also another job .
