Hi Emm, I had my SL taken out before when I moved to BE. Is there a minimum # of pips? How do you handle this?

Are you using the Synergy Pro APB? Your price bars are quite different overall from my chart.

Yes, I did see that before, however I didn't think it was a critical area of resistance. Point taken Big E rules says previous swing. Ok, thanks Emm

Ok, noted your comment to look at the higher TF as well. FYI - when that H4 bar closed, it's no longer an engulfing bearish bar. I suppose the reason that this is not a good A+++ trade if we take H4 TF into consideration is likely due to the small ...

Yes in earlier post 72,568 it says basic rule for trade management is when you trade the chart TF you also manage in that chart TF.

It was a perfect setup until the TDI did a 180 degrees turn. To me, this chart meets Big E rules or am I missing something? This is not a one-off chart, I've seen lots behaving in that manner.

You're right Emm else I will be exiting every trade whenever it hooks and then the price points back to 4-6 or 12-2 angle. I am using the TDI_RT with the settings as per your earlier advice (see screenshots). Can you confirm if this is the correct ...

Agree, if one is confident on their trade skills, I don't see any any issue with their mental strength to cut loss because there will be another trade that will bring positive results. It is when one is learning, we lose confidence over time if we ...

Did u take notice of his other post on H1 short? If I had short on D1 AUDUSD without knowledge of ME/ME strategy, I will be pulling my hairs now.

Yes, I did. Both H4 and H1 TF had a valid setup. However if the entry is on H1 TF, the outcome will be a profit. If the entry is on H4 TF, the outcome will be a loss. Hence, my confusion
P/S I reckon the TDI re-painted - hence H4 TF is not ...Trading Made Simple

Hi Emm, how do you tell that D1 was the setup chart? My entry was on H1 TF and my analysis was based on that TF.

Hi Catalin, my analysis is based on Big E rules. And, as I recall the hundred of pages I read there is no mentioned whatsoever that the AUDUSD trade I took was based on D1 chart TF setup when my entry is based on a H1 TF. Big E trading rules is ...

My analysis: (1) I did a short on H1 when TDI cross. (2) 3rd candle is with both upper & lower wicks. (3) 4th candle was a blue bar when candle opens. I would have exited based on Big E rules (2) & (3). So, I dunno am rather confused 'cos 4th candle ...

Hi Tekkies, you're right. I wasn't quite sure of this. So, what do you consider as close to the previous high? 5 pips? or 10 pips? or 20 pips?

Thanks heaps Emm. D1 charts will be easier since I'm working and can't wake up to monitor the 4 hours charts anyways. Per my screenshot, below is my analysis. 1. There's a a hook on the TDI. 2. Support & Resistance (purple dotted line). 3. Price are ...

Hi Tekkies, yes I am floundering and frustrated at myself. Been trading on and off for ~5 years and not getting anywhere to make profit. Even this thread "Trading Made Simple" is not so simple after all but I do agree that it's easier to understand ...
