{quote} Could you explain how do you use those weekls pivots? thanks
blueman, you can try these pivots and find answers how to use them..All I can say is watch for reaction at extreme levels and time your entry with the help of the tdi. In most cases they are often used to time a retracement/reversal but don't just enter the market until you have seen ppa,tdi and candles formation..with all these things you will probably eliminate a lot of badly timed entries, thereby not enduring big drawdowns if you were to take trades just because price is at this pivot and so and so...I have seen traders taking trades against the direction of the tdi and suffer huge drawdowns...I just don't understand why they have the tdi on the charts and not use them properly...strange???

To be fair you and Emmanuel have added a lot to these pages recently with your bickering. I'm starting to think that is why this thread is becoming so long. I have 3 young children and they bicker less!

I don't post often but I do read a lot and I think you two really need to agree to disagree here and then concentrate on your trading and helping others.

Hi Emmanuel and all the other Traders!

Im one of the silent readers of this thread, almost 3 years now.
I just wanted to let you know that Emmanuels posts (trading related) in this thread have reduced my learning curve enormously. I know that some of these things what we are discussing here at the moment was not used by Big E, but I believe that if we want to be successful in this business, we have to keep learning new things/techniques and evolve daily bases.
The other thing which has helped me a lot is back testing and forward testing on the live market with small live account every day, at least 3-5h a day. Taking notes about my trades and trying not to repeat my mistakes next trading day.
I believe that Im not the only one who finds that Emmanuels posts (trading related) have a great value.

Tnx for your attention and green pips to everyone!

Hi ML,

Quoting MeLe
I was on the Craig Harris thread when Eric started Trading Made Simple, so I have been on TMS since day one. It was a great thread then.
In my opinion it would be great to have you here, please stay!

Quoting MeLe
I have seen so many good traders come and go, some by choice and some by suspension, it is a shame to see what was a great thread become what it is today.
Over the time people here accused Emmanuel of hijacking this thread but he should not be blamed for it.

I think that unfortunately we are the ones to blame. By "us" I mean people like me who would only read but not post and actively participate, guys like you (please don't take it personally!) who knew Big E and left this thread, experienced traders who left and started their own TMS based threads and left this one to be bombarded with tons of irrelevant messages.

Let's get it back on track. Post a chart with TMS trade that follows the original rules and template, discuss TMS charts other people posted. You know like in that movie "If you build it, they will come"?

Hi info

I always try to understand your entries in this trade not able to understand reason for short because weekly PA was abvoe 10 EAM and TDI was also up......

So do you take trades against the weekly TDI and opposite PA


Thanks

If you post images of the trades taken you would get more help. Unfortunately you have only posted 1 chart and that was a winning trade so unless we can see where you are entering it will be difficult to help.
Success means going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm

Thanks for replying. I am youngster in my trading life, my current thinking I've outlined below as I try to develop a strategy that suits me.

{quote} Nothing wrong with that chart or trade taken. - "danger of leaving with nothing" - sounds like fear. Not fear but after the trade moved in my favour I didn't want to exit with a loss. So if it comes back to close it dies!

It is on demo trading. Yes but I'm trying to treat it as if it was real so the feelings I have when I do trade live will be the same. Otherwise no point demoing.

Next time wait for green to go flat, hook over or check mark. Look at insoforserver post...
. Ok, taken on board

{quote} Hi, You are trading inside the big FOMC and NZ GDP candle and those TDI signals are not reliable in such volatile market conditions. Also wrong time to trade H4 after London closed, liquidity drops and market is slow moving unless there is big events in the world like for example, the time Irag invaded Kuwait, the market responded when most traders were sleeping. There are things we dont see on our charts. It is market knowledge.
Thanks for helping.

Market knowledge - In your opinion what is the best way to be aware of the things I don't see on my charts eg FOMC & NZGDP before I trade?

Hi Faatkumo,

{quote} Still haven't come discovered a sound SL for entry with TMS.
What timeframe are you using?

My opinion: your stop loss distance will depend on two factors - your timeframe and amount of risk you are taking. From my experience: on daily I use stops in the range of 150-250 pips, when I trade H1 my stop is set around 50-60 pips. The lot size has to be adjusted accordingly.

Maybe you could post a chart of your recent trade showing your stop?

@ Emmanuel https://www.forexfactory.com/showthr...55#post9675955 Good for you. Now take it somewhere else because that is NOT Trading Made Simple by eelfranz
This guy will never leave, you know why???
because, once he opens his on thread it will last no longer than a few week or maybe a month because since he been teaching his **** not one person on this thread has been successful with his teaching!! Show me one? the reason behind this is he can't trade consistently. That's a fact, black and while....
Have a look in the past his live calls, tell me how many he get right?
He brag about his results before with screenshot of statement but when asked for TE he never put, why? Info's the same!

His a guy with no life and too much time lol

I can bet 100% he will never open a thread, watch and see....

Talking about stops and trading ideas...

Here is my latest trade, opened yesterday:
USDJPY Sell @ 113.50, Stop: 116.01, T/P: 108.00

Reasons for taking:

  1. TDI Cross on the 2nd candle
  2. PA showing lower highs

There is obviously strong support area at 112, so this is a negative factor, but if this support will be broken it will actually work in my favor because this area will become resistance. I will move my stop to breakeven once the price gets to 112 area and will trail it after that.

Any thoughts?
