Regarding Strat's PASR method (https://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=708441), i am a bit skeptical about candle patterns he uses. If I ever watch candle patterns, they will be pin bar and inside bar only as Niel Fuller does. I don't see statistical edge on other patterns. Even pin bar and inside bar don't look have enough edge. Especially, pin bar is often be used by stop hunters as many retailers attempt to use it now. Also, it seems Strat has posted only a few live trading setups (some of them failed). Hind sight trades always...

I followed Thomas Bulkowski and he did a lot of studies of various candlestick pattern and their %probabilities.
example:
http://thepatternsite.com/ShootingStar.html

As for trading TMS with the TDI, my experience is to use the engulfing bar/candle and engulfing outside bar/candle, these usually show good TDI Green slope as the momentum.

The other rare pattern is the DBHLC and DBLHC which can be reversal and also continuation setup conditions.

There are more complex reversal patterns - 3 bars and 5 bars.

Well, 20:20 is easy to talk about in forums. People will make all sort of excuses not posting in realtime making excuses that it is signal service, etc.
I see nothing wrong to post analysis and trade ideas, plans etc. and let people see for themselves if the see the same and would take the trades.

Anyway it has become Fun Factory in most forums here. SHF is very different with their moderators.

In my view, candle patterns have two issues:

1. Provability: 50% is same as coin tossing. People would expect over 60% (preferably over 70%) of provability, but I don't think they have this high provability these days.
2. RR: As Steve Nison admitted, when candle patterns identified (candle close), often their RR is just so-so. That's why people usually want to wait some pull-back (about 50%) to have better RR. This should be one of the reasons you adopted ME/ME approach. Ignorant people just don't understand it.

FF is now less exciting place to me, but I still find some values, especially regarding the MT4 charting tools/accessories thanks to generous coders here.

Yea, I was hoping the Germans to get their act together and put up a stella performance to turn things around and make it to the last 16.
But they did not play like they used to. Their 'machinery' did not get the 'oil' they needed.

Show is nearly over and currently @ strong support but it may squeeze some last momentum to complete the harmonic (it would also help wipe out bottom pickers stacked around the previous swing low before moves up).....

Looking at the weekly, price has rejected the top and looking the same for this week, on the daily price is now trading below the 10 ema and I suspect price will come down to test the previous swing high..on lower tf like the 1 hour price has already printed LH,LL and I entered a short at the rejection of the 34 ema on the 15 min...I will be surprised if price can test 1.3380 again before testing the swing high

Why NZD is so weak? Trade War of course! Ever read a news paper? When Fed rate hike was 99% guaranteed long ago, he said FED wouldn't raise rate at that time. Hilarious. His fundamental analysis also has a flaw.
