That posture look so familiar - wonder how many traders take that pose when the market give's them a middle finger.

Regarding the last pages I have read, I would like to add my opinion if you do not mind.

From my point of view we are here to learn, to trade and to be profitable, can we leave aside any personal grudges and stick to this wonderful trading system?

Best Regards and let us have a mature thread ahead focusing on learning!!

You do not have the 5EMA on your chart.
Do you have a set up candle? What is a set up candle?

Making sense of BigE's entry strategy "We Enter a trade when green crosses red on the TDI at the beginning of that candle... If "At the beginning of that candle": I have understood only now the meaning of this indication, grasping fulling the difference between an HA bar and a candlestick. With candlestich, every bar is separate from the other. With HA bar this is not the cause. When a new HA bar opens, it shapes itself considering the values of the previous bar and the early new values of the new bar, so that it can open already with a big body,...
Rub gave me a an open slap.
So I reread your post and try to understand what you have posted

Rub / Sanbernardin you have been using something you did not knew how to use and one reason more to understand the indicators in use.
You should have researched HA, Stoch, 5EMA, TDI when you started to use Trading made Simple.
It is like owing a racing horse and treat the horse like a donkey.

The principle that Sanbernardin discovered is detail in:
Synergy_Pro_Ebook_v.5.12(USER_GUIDE).pdf
TDI.pdf

Below is a chart and you will see why BigE typed:
When using Japanese candles you see up down up down and youre stressed to the max during your trade... It's more calming to trade HA candles

I use Post#647 as my pre-trade checklist when I prepare my trading plan. This way, I know what the short term trend is and the long term trend, using these two pieces of information I know on my trading chart timeframe what I will be looking for. My preference for the best setups or A+++ setups is to trade following the short term and long term trends.

This should answer any question as to whether we should checks other timeframes when we look for trades.

{quote} Hi Rupasi, Don't worry I know what you meant about banning someone from this thread. I have got used to all kinds of people who come and go. It is a seasonal thing in public forums. Now to answer your questions: 1) about Big E exit using his time 6am PST, he has his reasons. From my studies of his posts going back to 2009, that time exit is not really something I would follow. I will find another time to explain why and how I plan my trade entries and exits. 2) about GBPUSD - from hindsight which is always 20:20 vision, experts will say...

GBPUSD H4 update:

the last H4 candle just closed.

Is that a 5-Method set up candle? You decide on your own.

when you want to check other timeframes for trades, Big E had a simple way using MT4 profile.

This post#3113 he explain how he set up the chart profiles.

I have my easier way to change chart timeframe all at once in same profile.

I wonder if traders who use TMS never have a look to actual candlesticks. The difference between HA and candlestick is huge: a big body on one can correspond to a tiny body on the other and viceversa. Very often what appears to be a positive trade, considering open and close points on HA, in reality it results in a negative trade, because the true prices were far away fron open/clise HA points. The point is: how to keep truck of the true prices which are not indicated by HA?
Hi Sanbernardin,

With more trading experience, you will find the use of the Price Bar or Japanese candlesticks has its advantages.
Big E knew this but his personal preference is to use the HA and he has his own reasons years ago.
We as traders evolve as our own knowledge and experience grows, hence we will have our own personal preferences too.
I use the Price Bar over the APB/HA candles and benefit from the use of both.

Looking very good on your H4 chart. There is recent support seen, previous reversal and the current PA at Support is valid in my view.
Timing is also good today with a slightly stronger USD.
I have open position in H1 and floating.
Your TP level looks okay to me. We nener know what the market will do when NY opens in few hours so we manage our trade risk.

Is this forum about you and the way you trade or about Trading Made Simple and the indicator TDI and how to use it.
