Hi i have been watching ur views on tdst below is the afl i use for stocks & commodities. I do not use traditional way of trading with tdst SO I REMOVED SOME PART OF ORIGINAL AFL
I only use blue & red lines if price is below both sell if above buy as time progresses before reversal or retracing there is a pause in market {a very tiny small range } exact there you will find one of these lines will come & hug the price then you should look to exit there or use any other indicator for finding target or exit.
LITTLE PROBLEM FOR ME I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO DO SCAN IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO KNOW HOW MANY STOCKS ARE BELOW BOTH LINES OR
ABOVE BOTH LINES I HAVE TRIES TO POST IMAGE ... BUT COULD NOT.. SORRY
BELOW IS THE AFL
I NEED SIMPLE THING
WHEN PRICE BELOW BOTH RED & BLUE LINES SELL
WHEN PRICE BUY ABOVE BOTH RED & BLUE LINES BUY
THNKS IN ADVANCE
THIS IS MY AFL
