VERY FIRST POST! I have thoroughly enjoyed finding TMS in its various forms; meaning I first found Trade Made Simple (Big E/eelfranz), which led me to here (Direwolf), but then another called TMS for Newbies (MrAussieFX). I read the original TMS forum until my eyes were bugging out/red/hurt, trying to find (or at least understand) what the latest version of techniques, indicators, templates, etc. Then someone posted that it would take me 8 years to finish the original post!! Ouch! Honestly, I got lost. So, off to TMS & Me. Whew, thought I had found the "cleaned up version"...hahaha. And then somehow came across TMS for Newbies...read all those posts. All of them seem to make sense in their own right. I have a couple of separate folders that I placed indicators, templates, summarizations/collections of posts to help filter what I needed to get started depending on which forum I was on.
Love the education in each one of the forums, and the respect each of the traders have for each other, sharing, etc. Hopefully I can do the same. But now I'm wondering about what seems to be slightly different approaches based on slightly different tweaks to the parameters. For instance, are we using plain/default Heikin Ashi bars, or are we saying we need to use Dean's version of Average Price Bars? Are we using TDI or are we using Synergy_APB Pro, etc, etc. The last set of indicators I downloaded was from TMS for Newbies, which doesn't include TMA. Anyway, long enough...maybe someone could clear up the slight differences. I do like trading the higher TFs (specifically 4H) due to job/family commitments.

My dream of sustaining myself purely from trading is not a reality yet however since I withdrew a large chunk of funds for my daughter's birth (large for my country, small for you guys I'm sure lol.)
