another confusing day reading this thread — Hi All, I have had yet another confusing day reading this thread. As I recall, FTI says; 1. ignore S/R - so why the post about not attacking until below 50 ? 2. Dont use Elliot - so why are people ...

G/J - a sudden spurt of activity — Well done Tiki, I missed this one (and G/U), I am in both A/U and U/J but at slightly worse prices than you, and only for the 50pips rather than my usual 100. Good luck to us both, Ian

RichD - De Mark — Hi, Since you mention De mark trend lines, are you using DIBS with the T De Mark targets (as in Mouteki)? Just curious, Ian

The DIBS Method... No Free Lunch continues

It seems obvious to me — Hi, Its strange, but it seems obvious to me: Periods are bars/candles (e.g 1 hr, 1day etc). Thus for a 1hr (DIBS) chart, Bemac's defaults are: STPeriods = 45 bars i.e. the last 45 hours MTPeriods = 100 bars i.e. the ...

The DIBS Method... No Free Lunch continues

Be careful about over confidence — Sorry Tiki, I'm afraid that 17 trades, or even 17 + 28 is still far too small to determine if you really have an edge. I would say that you need a good record over 100+ trades. That is real trades, demo ...

My take on getting in — Hi Matt, I don't know if Tiki has something more sophisticated now, but he once said that once it hits one of his lines he just asks his cat. Personally, I base all my TT5 trades off the 1 hr chart (so its really a ...

Hey Tiki, whats the problem? its around the TT5 isn't it — Hi Tiki, After that CAD trade with 7 time your normal size, I was getting concerned for you. I think you may need a small to moderate sized TT5 loss just so you don't get carried away ...

G/U TT5 — Gosh Tiki, Sorry, but I hope you are wrong on this one ( I am short G/U). I was also short G/Y but you beat me on that one! I don't think I trade TT5 like you, couldn't stand the large red pips during the trade for a reward of only ...

How I found what works for me

Did you see how in that chart it hit the 138% ? — In the chart I posted above, did you see how well the 138% of the intraday fib (Bobokus/Skunny style) would have worked as a target? Oh, I should mention that according to Bobokus, Fibs do not ...

How I found what works for me

Example of combining different methods — Here is a DIBS trade that I took (Jaroo and others also took it). I was slow to react to the 1hr Pin Bar. I should have at least taken profits or even reversed long, but all I did was tighten my SL to ...

Silverheat, thanks for posting — Hi Silverheat, What you say is very true and it has taken me wasted years before I really believed it. May I suggest if you want to trade for real but small money, then use OANDA and you can use a Demo account ...
