Okay, good. Maybe you can post a bold warning in CAPITAL RED letters above the attachments - not that it will stop anyone fully intent on destroying their accounts ! |

Hi coolncalm, It's not obvious to grasp the mechanics of CTS. So let's take a real example. Below we have a CADJPY chart. OK? According to the latest Baluda indicator, Sell entry is when the first red Bar Histogram appears. Correct ? and Buy signal is at the first green Bar Histogram. (marked with vertical blue lines) The problem, here is that buy signal is near to the Daily Pivot, which pushed downward the price again to resume the DT. How could we manage to avoid after the reversal, Buy signal lead to a very bad trade |

Effluvium, The TMASlopeCTS indicator is just one of the deciding factors. Another one is the proximity of one of the FastTMA lines. In your but signal example that is obviously not the case. Paul |

In a DT-**, yes. But this is a UT, so no short trades, only longs until a new bias emerges. No, momentum value cannot be a buy signal on its own if no other entry conditions have been met yet as is the obvious case here. And it doesn't have to be the very first weak signal, we just define negative values from -0.80 upwards as weakening momentum - any weakness is valid IF and WHEN other entry conditions have been met. Be careful with price at MP - confirm first if there will be a cross or a bounce, expecially since the previous high was a H4 high. If price bounces firmly off MP and other conditions are present, then consider a long entry. |

I'm sorry CC, but it's totally unclear to me!! I've been studying a LOT and following this thread, but in all honesty, your post above has just confused me [almost completely!!] and doesn't answer the question for me I'm afraid. I've read your post again and again and I'm really sorry, but I must be the most unintelligent person on this whole forum, because it just doesn't make any sense! Is anyone else confused? Or is it just me? |

It must be my English teacher then - I was certain until now that I couldn't have been clearer there So tell me what is still confusing, dear friend - is it confirming an MP cross or bounce that is unclear? You don't want to do that? You would like to jump in pronto (I can't stop you even if I wanted to, you know? |

Hi CC, The whole thing is muddled up now!! I'm sticking with this even though I'm finding it very difficult! Because I believe you have something very good to teach us here! |

That's easy.
Now, can I be clearer than this? Let me know |

Thanks for this. Is crossing the 20SMA a new thing? Or have I missed where you explained it earlier? Do you want a candle close on the other side of the 20SMA? More questions! 1. Would you take a trade at a WP if price is in a suitable retracement and the above criteria are met? 2. Do you find it more reliable to take deals at MP and WP or FastTMA line? Thanks again, Rob |

Am I seeing this properly? If my annotation is correct, then this is a perfect setup. But I don't understand why you said you don't "gamble" around monthly pivots? Sorry for labouring these points!! But like I said, I think you have something good here and I want to learn it!! |
