New Short on G/J. Ticks most boxes, 10MA pulled down under 200EMA, green TDI hooked down through downward sloping yellow and red, with red sat below yellow. PA broke and closed below the recent low, which is where the 4HR 10EMA had been supporting. ...

E/J +15 It took quite some discipline not to meddle with the TP, particularly now having seen it run on another 20. but that's the key lesson to learn from LE1, strong set ups only, take little steps and don't be greedy.

LE1, it's a long, not short, the red line on the chart is my SL not TP, a bit wider than I would like but the entry candle was quite long and I'm paying 2.6 spread on EJ with my broker. I took it because the 10EMA was turning up away from the ...

Just taken this long on EJ, but in hindsight, not convinced. Am I chasing the market?

Is it just me, or has today been tough to trade? I've ended up in the red, albeit if I had taken heed of LE1's big red post recently, I'd have faired much better. I'd be very interested to hear of any successful trades in today's market. Cheers

Thanks Pip26, this is the hardest part for me and one I need to work on. I find it very difficult to take 15 pips, when the market looks line it will run on for a lot more, regardless of how many times (like today) i'm proven wrong!

My old greed habit has struck again this AM. Took a long on G/U at 1.6197, thought about closing for +18 when the PA stalled, but thought it looked good for at least +25 so just pulled my S/L up to +5 which got taken out. I suppose +5 is better than ...

Alij The short term trading principal of TDI is green crossing red for a scalp, so whilst the basic set up is for green to cross yellow, some traders with experience of TDI takes trades when green crosses red. I have taken trades on green/red ...

Reading the later posts could lead to confusion, with many other slants on the strategy added in by experienced users and charts posted on other tf's, sometimes without reference to TDI, which is integral to the basic set up. Whilst I am sure that ...

Apologies if it is in another post and I've missed it, I have looked but with over 500 pages now, it is a needle in a haystack task, but could someone please post the indicator that displays the current 10EMA as flat horizontals for the various ...

FXBloom I'm curious, your TDI green has spiked over the 68 level a couple of candles ago, but mine hasn't. Have you changed your settings? (Mine is left at default) Cheers

Having been through a lot of this thread and seeing the different approaches and 'bending' of the original rules, I took a few trades and got them wrong. This post from Jep hit home, thanks Jep. Today I stuck to 15m t/f, basic rules only, not much ...

Pip26 - Thanks for your post. I was also in that short, but wasn't paying attention to the PPA for an exit, until I saw your post reminding me of the support between 126.10 and 126.20. Out at 126.14 for +15. Cheers

Just took a G/J long 'bounce' trade at 126.47 on the 9.00am candle closing above the 10EMA, whith green TDI hooking upwards and yellow on the rise. But just had my S/L hit on an E/J short. Again I think I was too trigger happy, yellow TDI was on the ...
