TDI shark fin

TDI Sharkfin is when the Green (Price/RSI) Line comes out of the Blue (Volatility Band) Line and
returns back in, hence forming a shape resembling a Shark's fin (green RSI line) when its swimming near
the surface
ofwater(blueVolatilitybandline).

BTMM Timing
This is an example of how i converted the times to the time of where I live in the GMT +3 Time zone
 !sm_WorkTime_v1.5b
(2).ex4

⬆ Install this indicator on your mt4 for PC, it automatically sets BTMM times to your time zone and
factoring in the time of broker.
To know BTMM timing with what to expect from a currency pair you just have to know which currency
is traded at mostly which time, when the big moves happen to its pairs at that time due to its Market
makers involvement.
As a trader you have to know when are you trading which session and which pairs have a movement
during that session
In European currencies pairs usually, the big moves happen on London session after Asian session In
Asian session pairs usually on Asian session. north American pairs usually during London session or New
York session.
ok now let’s talk about currencies that are traded during Asian session which mostly do not consolidate
(do not form ranging market during Asian range)
they are JPY - Japanese yen
AUD - Australian dollar
and NZD - New Zealand dollar

let me show examples of their big moves during Asian session

we see JPY pairs show movements during Asian sessions, sometimes big moves because Asian people are
trading their currencies during those times
now lets go to Australians

we see big movements during Asian session in the AUD pairs ⬆ Australians are awake during Asian
session trading their currency

now let’s go to New Zealand people

above we see big movement of NZD pairs during Asian session, New Zealand people are awake trading
their currency that times. We can see Asian currency pairs that form big moves during Asian session
mostly go past London session and reversal happen at New York session, sometimes moves happen in
London session also. now mostly all other pairs are just in a consolidation range/ranging zone /ranging
market /Asian range during Asian session.
you can see above ⬆ all other pairs and currencies are mostly ranging during Asian session And the
European currency pairs (having currencies CHF, EUR, GBP) mostly form big moves on London
session and those North American currency pairs (having currencies CAD, USD) form big moves during
London or mostly New York session giving a big reversal move there. remember Asian session range is
the big blue box The small blue box after Asian session is the start of London session and small blue box
attached to the big red box is the start of new York session the big red box is the New York session box

SIGNATURE TRADE;
BTMM signature trades we will discuss are:
-Baseline bounce trade (BLB)
-TDI Divergence
-Asian Range bounce (AR Trade)
-12,22,21 Box Trades
-50 EMA bounce - ID50 (M15)
- 50/50 Bounce (H1)
-200 EMA bounce / Stop Hunt Hold the Mayo (SHHM) / Sharkfin Hold the Mayo.
And how to combine all those with BTMM confluences like Timing, Candlestick Rejecting candles etc.

1. BASELINE BOUNCE TRADE (BLB):

For those who don’t know TDI well, MBL(Market Base Line) is the yellow line of TDI RSI
(Price) Line is the green line of TDI
As you see it starts with an M or W off of the Mayo (EMA 200 the white one) then the price moves a bit
and comes back for the entry to bounce off of either EMA 50 (Water - light blue) or EMA 200
(Mayonnaise - White) at the same time on TDI we see the MBL (Market Base line - yellow) is slanted (has
a slope - not flat) and RSI (Price) Line (Green/Black) is bouncing off of the MBL.
after M or W on EMA 200 you just wait for retracement of price back to EMA 50 or 200 and at the
same time on TDI Market base line (yellow) must be slanted ( not flat❗) and price line (green) bounces
off the Market Base line then it’s over,
2. TDI DIVERGENCE
TDI Divergence is one of the confluences (confirmations) of taking trades of M and W patterns while
they are reversing the trend (regular divergence) or simply continuation of the trend (hidden divergence)
or in exaggerated divergence like we find RSI bounce on MBL on the second leg of M or W
If u see closely the line of identifying the divergence is drawn on the same side if up on chart price, then
up on Green TDI line for short bias sell trades, and if down on price chart down of TDI's green line for
long bias buy trades.
About describing the points that we join to identify the divergence in price action terms let me send them
for Regular divergence, you will make them out for the remaining types
For Exaggerated divergence price on charts forms equal tops or bottoms on the legs of M or W while on
TDI's green line tops or bottoms are slanting down or up respectively

DIVERGENCE WITH TIMING FOR INTRA-DAY TRADES (M15 Timeframe):

TDI DIVERGENCE WHEN OCCURS WITH PATTERN M or W which have REJECTING
CANDLES (pins, stars, hammers, rail road tracks etc.) on their legs and SECOND LEG is at a
SESSION OPEN (example Asian session open, London session open, New York session open) its bonus
money. To get extra confirmation you just have to know which currency is traded at mostly which time,
when the big moves happen to its pairs at that time due to its Market makers involvement.
TDI Divergence with Second Leg at New York session open (small blue box overlapping with Red New
York session box) with a lot of pins to the top, they went for one more stop hunt forming M at New
York session that is still with TDI Divergence
They did the same thing on London session open
W pattern with second leg entering London session (small blue box) that is divergent with TDI and has
candle pins to the bottom at each leg
Green Arrows: you can see MM play the Divergence trade and moved it right at New York open
(beginning of red box) you can see the Rail road track candle their moves painted on chart at that leg.
Blue Arrows: you can see that Multi session M with lots of pins to the top with a nice Exaggerated
divergence play entry at Asian session open (first 1/3 of big blue box), you just eat with the MM together.
Lets get some more examples

New York session open TDI Regular Divergence entry

Asian session open TDI Exaggerated Divergence entry

London session open TDI Regular Divergence entry after stop hunt low

3. ASIAN RANGE BOUNCE (AR Trade):

The updated Worktime indicator from BTMM that helps to plot the lines where the bounce happens (top,
middle or bottom of the asian range, those yellow dashed lines drawn on top, bottom and middle of the
Asian range box and extended further to the right) after Asian range box is ⬇

!sm_WorkTime_v1.5b.ex4

how to install PC mt4 indicators: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=L8GEmuYopj4

Those Yellow dashed lines after the Asian Range box will appear at the top and bottom is AR-00 levels
and at the middle is AR-50 level
Asian Range Bounce (AR Trade) is a bounce on the levels AR-00 top/bottom or AR-50 level after
inducement out of the Asian Consolidation range (big blue box). After inducement out of Asian range
box, price comes back to bounce off the EMA 50 and either half of the Asian range box at AR-50 or
top/bottom of the Asian range box at AR-00 At the same time in TDI, the RSI(price) line (the green line)
bounces off the 50 level of TDI either exactly at 50 level or within 1.5 points of the 50 level of TDI
ASIAN RANGE BOUNCE (AR TRADE) EXAMPLES WITH TIMING:
In my TDI the black dashed line is the 50 Level of TDI. What we look for in TDI to confirm the Asian
Range Bounce trade is the RSI (Price line) green line to bounce off of the 50 Level of TDI, NOT
specifically on the MBL (yellow), what we look for is bounce specifically on the TDI 50 Level (black
dashed line on my TDI)
On chart we look for the bounce on the AR-00 (top/bottom) or AR-50 (middle) lines of the Asian Range
box after an inducement out of the box then back to form the bounce on those lines. At the same time
the bounce on the AR line should be accompanied with a bounce on the EMA 50.

4. 12,22,21 BOX TRADES:

First of all, these trades happen at the previous day’s High/Low (Especially Yesterday's High/Low which
is represented by a blue tracer on BTMM charts) or at the Week's high/low and have Multi-Day, Multi-
Session session M, W patterns in them.
 They are called box trades because you can anticipate them on High of the week and low of the week by
drawing an extended zone where the multi day, multi session M/W/V patterns happened in the past 3 to
5 days, very visible in H1 charts.
They are usually found in Level 3 Peak formations or in Resets.
In 12 Setup the first leg is an outside structure (V pattern) with second leg the following day(s) having a
multi session M/W pattern.
In 22 Setup the first leg has a multi session M/W formation with second leg the following day(s) having a
multi session M/W formation respectively.
In 21 Setup the first leg has a multi session M/W with the second leg the following day(s) having a V
pattern.
On second legs of the 12,22,21 setups, the price comes to the previous leg and fails to break its high/low
indicated by the blue tracers. The entries of the second leg have rejecting candles.
On TDI there is Sharkfin, for V pattern the entry is when the RSI comes back into the bands and for
M/W patterns the second leg of that M or W appears as a cross on the MBL of the TDI.
12,22,21 BOX TRADES WITH TDI EXAGGERATED DIVERGENCE, TIMING,
CANDLESTICK REJECTION PATTERNS AND YESTERDAY'S HIGH/LOW (BLUE
TRACER):
The best reliable 12,22,21 box trades are the ones in same zone at previous day's high/low (blue tracer)
and having an Exaggerated/Regular divergence with TDI's RSI (price) green line, with Timing and
Rejecting candles.
These are the best since also most of them are for short-term holding traders. Just look at the examples
below.

Divergence.

5. STOP HUNT HOLD THE MAYO (SHHM) (200 EMA Bounce Trades):
Also called Sharkfin Hold the Mayo (EMA 200) is a price bounce on EMA 200 (Mayo). How to
anticipate/look for the trade:
For H1: After EMA 50 and EMA 200 cross on H1 Timeframe start looking for retracement bounce on
EMA 200 on H1
For M15 : When price is bouncing at EMA 50 on H1 at the same time it is bouncing off EMA 200 on
M15 Timeframe
On M15 (as in these 3 examples) you can see the EMA 200 (Mayo) bounce trades (that are EMA 50
bounce trades on H1) at the same time there is a Sharkfin on TDI
The Stop Hunt patterns that can happen as bounce on the EMA 200 (Mayo) are M, V and W patterns
with Rejecting Candlestick patterns like pins of hammers, Rail road tracks, Cord of Wood etc. And on
TDI there is a Sharkfin.
STOP HUNT HOLD THE MAYO / SHARKFIN HOLD THE MAYO / EMA 200 BOUNCE
TRADE WITH TIMING AND CANDLESTICK REJECTING PATTERNS:
In M or W stop hunt patterns bounce on the Mayo (EMA 200) the first leg has to be a shark fin and
second leg is either a RSI bounce on Volatility band (blue) or RSI bounce on MBL (yellow).
In V stop hunt patterns only TDI shark fin happens with candlestick rejecting patterns off of the EMA
200 (Mayo) on chart.
Since we don't know what of the three patterns may happen, then first entry is if in TDI a shark fin is
present on first leg with candlestick rejection patterns off the EMA 200 on chart then another entry may
be put on second leg where on TDI it’s an RSI bounce on Volatility band or cross/bounce on Market
Base line (MBL)
Never forget Timing in the Trade, and it’s the market maker move you are in, since they trade according
to time (session) and location they are in

Timeframe H1
W Pattern off the EMA 200(Mayo) Doji rejecting candles both legs. Timing second leg New York session
open. TDI shark fin on first leg and Volatility Band bounce on second leg.

6. 50 EMA BOUNCE TRADES:
These include:
- Intraday 50/50 Bounce (ID50) in M15
- 50/50 Bounce in H1
How the setups start: During Level 3 where the EMAs 13,50,200 are fanned out while an Anchor (peak
formation / reset) is formed, then as EMAs 50 and 200 come back together EMA 50 and EMA 13 cross
and price pulls away then comes back to retest(bounce) on the EMA 50.
On TDI at Entry, RSI/Price line crosses the Signal line above or below the 50 level of TDI
Steps to the Setup [both ID50 (M15) and 50/50 Bounce (H1)];
- EMAs 50 & 200 start to come back to each other.
- Plot the Anchor (it can be M, W, Half Bat, Head and Shoulders or Triple Top/Bottom) that formed to
the left of the chart.
- EMA 13/50 cross each other (EMA 50/200 cross is even nicer) then price moves away for distance
about 25 to 50 pips THEN price sharply comes back to retest/bounce on the EMA 50 with rejecting
candle patterns.
- On TDI the RSI/Signal line cross each other above or below the 50 Level of TDI.

7. TDI DIVERGENCE WITH EMA BOUNCE AND YESTERDAY'S HIGH/LOW

BOUNCE.
Before we discussed TDI Divergence with confluence of Timing, now we are discussing TDI Divergence
with EMA Bounce and TDI Divergence with YH/YL Bounce.
Rules of these trades:
First leg of the Divergence is preferred to be either bounce on EMA or YH/YL. Entry at Second leg of
the Divergence Must be either a bounce on EMA or YH/YL.
The TDI Divergence happens as:
- A bounce between Same EMA or Different EMAs with or without EMAs cross between the divergent
legs, EMA crosses happen after trend change.
These trades follow the EMA trend. Don't trade against the trend in these trades.
- A bounce on Yesterday's High/Low (YH/YL)
These trades do not follow EMA trend, they are countertrend trades. Some repeating confluences that
happen in TDI on the legs are the RSI bounce on MBL (MBL bounce) and TDI Sharkfin.

TDI Hidden Divergence Buy

Bounce on Same EMA 50
On TDI, second leg has a Sharkfin.
TDI Hidden Divergence Sell
Bounce on Same EMA 200
On TDI, second leg has a Sharkfin.

TDI Exaggerated Divergence Buy

Bounce between Same EMA 200
On TDI, second leg happen inside the band after a Sharkfin on first leg.
TDI Hidden Divergence Buy with EMA cross between.
Bounce between EMAs 50 and 200
On TDI, second leg has a Sharkfin.

On the Right:
TDI Hidden Divergence Buy
Bounce between EMA 50 and 200
On TDI, second leg has a Sharkfin.
On the Left:
TDI Exaggerated Divergence Buy
Bounce on Same EMA 200
On TDI, entry leg has a MBL bounce after Sharkfin happen before confirming the bounce on EMA 200.

TDI Exaggerated Divergence Buy

Bounce on Yesterday's Low (YL)
On TDI, second leg has a Sharkfin.

TDI Regular Divergence Sell

Bounce on Yesterday's High (YH)
On TDI, second leg has a Sharkfin.
On the Right: TDI Regular Divergence Buy Bounce on Yesterday's Low (YL)
On the left: TDI Regular Divergence Sell Bounce on EMAs 50 and 200On TDI, second leg is inside the
band after a Sharkfin on first leg.

The Entries of these trades (at second leg) are:

-First at the candlestick rejections on the bounce of YH/YL or the bounce on EMAs having divergence.
-Second at the price close above/below EMA 13 on chart which happens with RSI cross above/below
MBL of TDI respectively.
As we see on examples above:
Regular divergence mostly happens on the bounces on Yesterday's High/Low because of the
countertrend, changing of trend.
Hidden Divergence mostly happen on the bounce of EMAs since they go with EMA trend, they are
continuation of trend.
Exaggerated Divergence can happen in any of the two (bounces on YH/YL and bounces on EMAs)
“There is nothing worth it that’s easy. if you like BTMM and its your taste then study to master
it so it can help you. then make a trading plan for the trades you will trade, the ones that are the
easiest for you to spot them while they happen on charts are the better ones to put in your
trading plan. the more flashcards you do the better you get at the trading setups of the strategy
you are making flashcards of.so you can spot them easily on charts when they are forming. you
will even remember the rules/confluences of entry better.”
