{quote}..... re: Note: There are versions out there that works both as a sole indicator and as an input indicator (with or without property strict) as long it satisfy the parameters they need on both side of intended use. V2V, Could you point me in the direction of a TDI Indicator that will compile and run with #property strict enabled and works as both an independent indicator and a source indicator for iCustom(). As stated my intended use is for iCustom() but I would like to have the confidence that it works accurately 100%. Appreciated - that...
You may use the TDI version from one of the earlier version of TMS Angleator (it uses iCustom) by GS. The TDI-RT-Clone was re-coded by one of the master coders here at FF named Xaphod... described as a gun programmer ; )- He's the one who developed the GMTS and a bunch of others.... I think he developed other modified versions of TDI with histogram or even an EA version.

Search it >>> "TDI-RT-Clone" or download it from a thread name called "Pivot Trading with TDI" on their post #1 or even on this TMS thread. You can put property strict on it if you found that this line of code is required to whatever output you need. You may need to put an additional buffer, calculations, functions or something that you think will help you to add extra information that you need . Also, you may try to search TDI Watchdog, check how it uses Synergy APB as an input (without iCustom).

Good day Michael

I for one trade TMS as laid out in the first posts with minimum deviation from the original


your post is the one that's BS

Quoting michael_k
and am doing fine.
Define "doing fine", have you been profitable forward-testing this strategy with the exact rules from 1st post for at least 6 months no matter if on a demo account?

Your post is just a waste of space, in fact Tekkies replied the same to me long ago, at least he/she is original.

Quoting michael_k
your own post is spreading negativity
Negativity, why?
Because I'm warning the noobs that if they trade exactly as eelfranz laid out in the first post, they won't have a 80% winning rate, that a TDI cross is not enough to success in this market, that first they need to learn FX basic things.

You're one example of the big mouths here, claiming "I'm doing fine" but yourself admitted you don't trade TMS exactly as in the first post but with a minimum deviation LOL.

Quoting michael_k
why don't you take some trades and post your charts.
LOL this question is a just a copy and paste from Tekkies replies towards me, You only spent time trying to quote the parts on my post to valid your arguments but you didn't bother to read the part where I said I'm going to open a demo TE trying to trade exactly as it's laid out in the first post and I will start sharing my trades next week to discuss them here with Tekkies and the rest.
Don't be lazy and read the posts completely.

Quoting michael_k
Forex37 was right: it is complete BS.
Your frend Forex37 is a big joke, joined FF since Oct 2006 and instead of making money with trading, he/she is still here tryin to make newbies trade exactly as laid out in the 1st page but how will he/she do it when he/she hasn't proved to be profitable trading exactly as eelfranz stated on the first post?

Good luck.


P.S: You're just a bad imitation of Tekkies.

as long as you are making money then good for you, but I see you are using TDI in trading D1 ?

I thought you did not trust TDI or it's not "exact science" and we should "use our common sense", are you criticizing TDI or H4 TF trading ?

Some are trading the TDI / TMS as it is exact science...... Do you really think that when you see price level is touching an indicator or whatever that it is gonna work as you expected? Think about that..... Use your common sense.

But how you can you say such a blasphemy!!!

TDI is a gift from heaven.

It is a fact if you take each TDI cross without paying attention to crap like PA, you'll be richer than Bill Gates in less
than one year.

Stop criticizing our god called TDI.

Do you think the top 100 richest people in Forbes Magazine accomplished their fortunes with hard-work or just luck; nope, they made it with the TDI.

I follow the rules from post #1 when I open and close my trades. You can see this from the charts I posted. If you have any specific questions regarding these trades, just ask me and I will answer.

I am doing fine for my purposes and I like the way my current account is doing (which by the way is my business only).

If the quote above was spelled out in your posts the way you did above, you would have had my vote, Captain Obvious.

The only problem is that this conclusion is not so evident from your posts. Personal attacks on the border of insults -- yes, what you wrote above -- no.

And yes, TDI cross alone is not enough for a successful or even valid TMS trade. I sincerely hope you will take into account the "basic FX things" when you will be making your trades.

If you are a newbie and haven't visited babypips school yet, I strongly recommend that you do that before opening your first trade.
If you are an experienced user I hope you can share your knowledge with the rest of us here.

claiming "I'm doing fine"
Yes, I am.

Quoting ReverseFlash
but yourself admitted you don't trade TMS exactly as in the first post
No I did not admit anything of that sort.
In fact it is the opposite: I said that I trade the system in accordance with Big E posts and I would think this is self-evident from the charts I posted -- there are not that many of them, you can check them out.

Quoting ReverseFlash
but with a minimum deviation LOL.
I am glad I made you laugh.

I did not realize that part requires explanation but here it goes especially for you: I have the same indicators and template from post #25, except:
a) Stochastics
b) EMA that I set to 60 instead of 5

Big E said that Stochastics is just a confirmation only and can be removed and I agree with him in this part, the Stochastics is no good for me. Same goes for EMA 5 and it makes more sense for me to set it at 60 instead of 5.

So strictly speaking points a) and b) above are a deviation from the original template but this deviation is minimal.

Hey Emmanuel7788, What's our plan with AUDJPY this week? I see that a downside trend has been clearly established, do we continue with selling for the coming week with ME/ME? Where would you suggest an emergency SL and our SMART cutloss level? Would greatly appreciate your advice on this. Thanks Simba

Hi Simba,

I do not have AJ in my trade plan for this week as there are other pairs in my watchlist with better conditions to trade on D1 chart.
Just need to focus and not trade more than 2 pairs from the same currency group.

Also after Kuroda speech on Monday, we must be careful with correction in the JPY pairs.

Trade Well and Trade Safe.

Hey, thanks for the reply.

Is it possible to breakdown a pair you do have in your watchlist.

I have been reading your posts in regards to ME/ME which I feel I am starting to understand. What I don't understand clearly is in regards to stop loss placement. If you could possibly show a chart example of where you would have your emergency stop loss and where you would have your SMART cutloss.

And also how would you define a technical invalidation?

Just trying to understand as much as possible before I try to learn your style of money management and hopefully incorporate some elements of it into my trading style.

You don't have to use iCustoms call which can be problematic in some situation.
Simply code the HA and Fozzy-RSI (TDI) into your main source file and you will get the data all within one single source code.

Hi Simba,

Ok. I will need to find time and also use live trade examples to explain all these again.
I am very busy now and whenever I have free time, I need to work on the content of the new thread.

All your questions have been asked and replied before. If you scroll back to my posts, you will read about them. Nevertheless. I can post with new trade examples either this week or next week.
I believe in live trading and not talking about closed trades which is hindsight trading.

Stay tuned!

@Kuzact,

You don't use a computer in this modern age.
What about a pocket calculator with memory functions?
You can store the daily open,high,low and close prices and calculate the moving averages manually.
You can trade the moving averages to replicate the TDI Green cross Red.

Week 16 April 20 D1 chart trading:

AUDUSD - possible sell but beware of the current month low and also last months' low as support.

EURUSD - still in buy mode despite yesterdays bearish day. Note the space between the TDI Green and Red. What did Big E say about this?

GBPUSD - look out for price consolidation between BRN 1.2800 and 1.2900. Opportunity ahead.

USDCAD - buy mode. look out for break of last months' high and target 1.3600.

NZDUSD - stull buy only despite yesterday's bearish day.

EURAUD - buy

EURCAD - buy

EURNZD - stand aside, no trade.

GBPAUD - buy the dips

GBPCAD - buy the dips

GBPNZD - buy the dips

USDJPY - exit all sell and look for buy potential.

AUDJPY - no trade

EURJPY - no trade

GBPJPY - buy with BRN play.

EURGBP - sell contra hedging EU and GB target 0.8300.

Trade Well and Trade Safe with Stop Loss.
Do Not Over-trade and pick only one pair from each currency group only.
Use your own risk management rule.
