Thanks pipthe trade, a big help. I'll use your formula; when I enter a market order with MBTrading I cannot set a SL or TP, I have to use the "Modify Order" function after the trade is entered. I appreciate your comments as I will be going live very ...

I am not sure when I drill down to the 15M or 5M exactly what to look for. If a lower TF, either one, is not in agreement then does that mean a trend reversal or a pullback? And how does one know the difference? Also, is this the right formula for ...

Sorry if you have answered this before but how does one put "normal" candlesticks, such as you show, on the same TMS chart? Thanks, p

I'm not sure where you entered but if it was at the start of the last red candles the TDI green line didn't show a good angle, pretty flat. Or you entered someplace else.

Whoa, I sure missed some good moves this morning. I did short the 15M E/$ for 13 pips but must have been still asleep to have missed the G/$ 1H move. I must tell the butler to get me up earlier with strong black coffee.

"I'll just keep doing it." per dcginc. Per piprac - keep doing it! And thank you.

Oops - now the 15M is looking like a bounce long trade so I will a while. I've never done very well with the bounce style but BigE has. p

A great big thank you to Britpip7 for helping me load the TMS Histo indi - he very patiently showed me how this is done in Win7 which I may never get a handle on. Thanks again B. I didn't do well this morning during the NY session, just too much ...

Is a 20p SL & 40p TP a more or less default R:R ratio for you on the 1H. It sure would simplify things for me.

I have read here that one should avoid "wicky" candles but your trade sure provided the exception to the rule. Nice going. p

Please don't start another thread, just keep your post generic and how it might be applied to TMS. I don't like to see the BiogE Rules altered by anyone but applying good trading skills is always appreciated.

New Week — I hope as we get ready to start a new week that the hissing and pissing can be laid to rest. I appreciate erebus' tutorial which can be applied to any pair, any TF, and any strategy (as he stated.) His tutorial is appropriate but ...

Are you sure you don't have dial up? p

Thank you. p.

I have tried, honestly, to find the thread that explains how to post charts - can anyone help me find it? Many thanks, p.

It's been talk about over and over: the previous swing high or swing low depending on the direction of the trade. You can't have a one-size-fits-all for different TFs, they are individual.
