Favorite TRO setups

As I work my way thru the TRO free and donational indicators, I develop favorites.

Thought maybe some of you folks might want to show their favorite setups. Useful if you can show what indicators you are using, the way I did.

Mine has core DTB stuff, but also trend indicators. Also a squiggly that came with the donationals (I think TRO uses it as a front end for a non-squiggly indicator.) I have modified the settings of the indicators to remove most of the text and extra lines, and changed the semaphors to squares.

(No I am not going to post a template)

EDIT:

ah ha. I got it. The reason this thread seems to be invisible is that the NEWS section of this subforum is really long. The TOPICS section is way down the page.

But I probably should have put this over in one of the general subforums. I should not be cluttering up TRO's subforum with trivial stuff.

Wondering, why there are no response to your thread?

Think this way: showing the set up without posting a template -
is similar to showing roasted chicken to a hungry man
(without giving it a try)

A bud PMed me. So OK, I'll post my template. But I'm not posting because I think that it is great, or that I am. Just my humble template. There are TWO donational indicators in it (the compass dashboard at the bottom of the screen, and the DFSR multi-meter).

Thanks for posting your .tpl. The donationals are a small way to say thank you in a big way to TRO for all his skill and trading wisdom he makes available to all of us in so many ways.

I gotta know, is your id icon a picture from the Wizard of Oz?

1) if anyone wonders, the donational indicators that I use are not included in the zip file (for obvious reasons).

2) Patch, the ICON is an album cover by the Mothers of Invention called "We're Only in it for the Money."

Hi Charley.

My purpose was to see if folks would share their TRO setups, not to post a "here's how I done dood it" thread. There are plenty of good threads by highly experienced traders on how to trade in this forum - so don't ask me please.

The core indicators are Drain the Bank but without the text, trend lines and fibs. See the Drain the Banks (DTB) threads for more on how to trade DTB.
Other indicators are to show trend.
