Its a shame that a beautifully simple system and thread has become so bloated with indicators and people telling newbies what they must and shouldn't do.

I suspect that had Big E not been snatched away from us prematurely this thread would have been closed and left as an example of a simple and elegant trading system that works.

Add your own indicators, timescales and beliefs to TMS and you have a winning system.
We're all just one trade away from humility.

Sorry Drewas. Your post is extremely misleading. Yes it s beautifully simple system. Yes this thread has become bloated with indicators.
Yes I am one of those people telling newbies what they must and shouldn't do.
Every post of mine is asking that who everyone feel the need to post here that it must be TMS only. The way BigE has laid it out

"Add your own indicators, timescales and beliefs to TMS and you have a winning system"
Exactly what BigE said members should not do.
Drewas the blue post is BigE's post. #486. read what he posted there ask yourself way you posted what you have posted is it what he have wanted?

I think as he stated the system works if you want to add things because they help you, do so but start a new thread (as I did).

Is this thread 3600 pages of people trading the TMS as laid out by Eelfanz?

Maybe the thread misses a moderator to keep the thread on topic. Or maybe it should be closed.

I do not think there will be a other BigE. He was one of a kind. a Moderator will not last long under his shadow. As to those 3600 page would there have been so many page if members only posted that is TMS. Now a newbie has to struggle to find TMS. To mothball TMS is to bury it, if members can not participate, interact, discuss TMS something beautiful as TMS will be forgotten

Not so good Pips. I panicked with GBPUSD. Closed losing orders and opened immediately opposite orders the marked swing around and took me out again. My behaviour was typical of a rookie trader. it was really panick mechanizing trading. Have asked admin if I may post XM results so far they have not responded.
Alternatif you can log in as an guest and do a search for "Tekkies". Would really appreciate feedback.

imo, I reckon trading short is a better option. Price is below the 5 ema from where I marked with a red vertical line and there wasn't a close above the 5 ema since then . I would look at shorts only if I were to trade it. I would be reluctant to trade G' pairs at the moment as sterling is very volatile. I probably have to be 200% alert and that would be too stressful to my liking

When you are done reading studying and making your own notes for trading, spend time and focus on two very important posts:

#261 and #647 link below.

It does not matter what other traders here do. What matters most is what you do and find the way you want to trade and make some money to supplement your day job fulltime income. Do not even dare dream about giving up your day job / full time career and think you can trade spot forex for a living.

Trade Well and Trade Safe.

Hey FF Friends, I am a newbie here. Is this a potential setup as per TMS? {image} I look forward to some feedback !

Hi,

Here is my view :

NZDUSD Week 42, Oct 17 to 22.

I have open sell positions and will continue with sell trades until I see a sell setup invalidation.
Note that the D1 chart shows the RSi / TDI in very deep OverSold levels hence there will be some buying attempts. We cannot see who is buying at those OS level so we must be prepared for bullish corrections next week. Cut our sell losses if necessary when the corrections move too high and threaten our trailing stops.
Current trailing stop is above week 40 high 0.7310 the high of Oct 4 D1 candle.

{quote} Hi, Here is my view :
Emm you have placed a lot of orders and closed them fast on the weekly chart. May I ask that you post the same orders on the 1 / 4 hour chart. Would love to see what made you close those orders in those time frames. Yes I have notas that they are opened / closed on the purple lines.

dear emmanuel.

could you help me with this big e quote "
When checking out the TDI for a possible trade: Think of a wall clock here and it's arms... you want to see the green line for a long trade at the 12-2 angle for best results and a short trade at a 4-6 angle... This is basic 4x stuff... Don't try to read things into the TDI just so you can get into a trade...

If the green line looks like it's at a 2-4 angle... it's weak. Pass on it.

This holds true for PA too for best results..."

i don't know about the angel? what was that meaning??

12 / 2 TDI is moveing up
4 / 6 TDI is moveing down
2 / 4 market is moveing sidways
The closer the angle is to 12 or 6 the stronger the moment is. Between 2 and 4 do not take place an order.

Hi antoe,

these are old posts with examples on the TDI clock face angle 12-2 and 4-6.

if you use the TDI setting set to Close Price value =0, you should look at the close price of the price bar and compare previous close price of the previous 2 -3 bars.

if you use the TDI with setting set to Typical Price value =5, you should look the average of the High,Low and Close and compare that to the previous 2 -3 bars Typical price.

the angle or the slope of the TDI Green will different according to the price type used in the RSI data.
