US session just open. If you look at the H1 charts of those 8 pairs which Big E used to trade, there are no trade opportunity now.
So we look at H4 which will close in 1 hour (GMT1300). Do you see any trade setups?

A little confused about original TMS by big E. Attached is 1H AUDCAD.
Around 1 hour ago, the stoch chart went down, which perfectly matched TSI green crossing red with good angle.
Also the first red PA appeared. I suppose it is a good entry for short ... 2nd candle entry
1 hour later, the price went up. Stoch line changed/repainted and it is flat now. Looking back, seems the entry 1 hour ago is not a valid one for the repainting of stoch line

Updated: adding a new chart of AUDCAD as of now. TDI was repainted and the original crossing nearly disappeared

IMHO, it maybe a real Daily IB breakout this time... some decent pull-back expected though.

The bar you pointed to seems of of been unable to make a new high,

plus tdi is overbought in the 68 range,
plus the mbl is by the 68 range
you would not see me buying there, that's for sure

I have tried the tdi pro with arrows and yes I even bought it but I found the arrows are at least one bar too late. In the price action is an inside bar.

Most of the traders from a local group I belong to trade the daily which is why I used to and they were long on EU since last week and would have used the inside bar breakout to add to the trade not go in with a fresh trade.

There is a parameter called ADR (average daily range). "Missing" a move within that ADR is usually to blame on poor indicators setup, ignorance or lack of good price action - indicators are not needed to see price action.

A currency pair will make moves to reach that daily ADR, in 80-90% of the trading days. Also in a lot of those moves, there is supporting price action to go with it and that is where you should be in. Below I attached two examples of random ADR reaching of a currency pair, and a ADR reached by sustained price action movement.

So when you miss a trade, ask yourself what kind of movement was it? Was it erratic exuberance or solid price action? Then you can judge what happened and why you missed it. Using ADR to gauge movement potential is very important. Please read Emm's posts to learn basic TMS and supporting knowledge, before asking other types of questions.

When a pair you are watching is reaching the ADR with nice PA, and you were on the sidelines, only then you can say you "missed it".

You should not beat yourself for missing trades. Being sorry for not being in a trade is better than being sorry for being in a trade.

AUD rate reduced to 1.5% as forecast. Did that change the direction of AUDUSD and ADUJPY? H1/M30/M15 traders got confused , is it up or down? some traders say the oscillators like TDI, RSI, show oversold so they went and buy. H4 and D1 chart traders stick to what their charts shows with the Price Action and TDI confirmation. the next question is GBP when the BOE announce it rate on this week. Will it reduced to 0.25%. Observe closely all the GBPxxx pairs, do you see a direction ahead of that BOE announcement? On the day before the BOE announcement,...
Dear emm and all traders,

I would like to highlight that H4 trades for some pairs can be affected by news if the SL is not wide enough.

Dear emm, I have some questions on the TMS 5 method.
1. do you strictly only enter on apb 1 or 2 only?
2. do we enter if price broke resistance or support with no tdi hooking (already hooked prior current candle and continue trend)
3. for oversold / overbought region, is medhi's method (above 80 and below 20) reliable?

Can we use TDI divergences in BigE's method? For an example, in the attached image of NZD 4H chart, there is a bearish divergence correct? (Please correct me if I'm wrong, I'm still learning about these stuff )

So can I expect a big move to the downside?

Also in the daily chart, a head and shoulders pattern is likely to form

Hi,

You are right.
That synergy pro tdi arrow is not the true TDI PL Green cross TSL Red.
Look at my screen capture in live market today.

use that with caution and rely more on the actual price action we see on our price charts.

You can use Divergence with the RSI provided you know what is Divergence and How to use that correctly.
Most of the divergence trades I see posted here in FF are not really divergence trades although they were posted shown as winning trades. From my view of the trades charts, those trade were more has to do with price action and support & resistance, and has nothing to do divergence as the trade setups.

If you want to trade with RSI divergence, then you must read this book and learn how to spot divergence correctly and use that effectively.

Read this book
RSI: The Complete Guide Post#27,110 by John Hayden
The Truth about Divergence ... read Chapter 4 Page 65
Trend Determination using the RSI (TDI) Post#26,774

Note: the TDI is created using the RSI data, and applying moving averages to the selected RSI data period. This is known as Fozzy-RSI which had been around much earlier before the TDI.
