Hi Roto can you tell me how you had attached the ''swing man ultra super trix MTF pv 4 col'' on your chart ? It don t want to show up on my chart watever the way i use to try to attached it, it s a mystery to me ! I hope i m not the only one with this situation and maybe Swing Man will fix this bug soon ! Thanks

Luk
what exactly are you having trouble with. If it is showing up in your navigator window just double click on it to put it on your active chart. Under the input tab set the time frame to 15.

Change the colors to your liking.

Hope this helps

as DM said I think you do need to have the "smSuper TRIX_v1.ex4" installed for it to work

ok just my thoughts on the bug in the swingman indicator alerts....what bug, i have never had a issue, never 1 problem...loaded them, turn off the alerts, use them with no alerts. Alerts? were scalping, not swing trading and i'm watching PA with the signals the trix gives me. a alert would just make me pull up a chart, figure out what the pa and indicators and past couple of hours direction is and by then, i would be too late for the trade anyway. Theres more to PA and scalping the 5m then alerts, if your not focused on the chart, know what its doing and its range etc. Then you should be on a higher time frame. If you can't watch 4 charts at once, load 2, if 2 is too much load 1. just my thoughts on this, until the alerts are fixed, just turn them off and when there fixed i will still have them off myself. also look at the wicks of the 4 currencys and the PA. most of the time i'm focused on the charts that are the cleanest and prettiest. I tend to cherry pick my trades. heres 2 screen shots, which PA do you want to trade

Hi Edgetrader,
My first post ever - really want to thank you and swingman, and others for the development of a really excellent trading system.

Been floating in the background for a while, & saw this developing in trendmagic thread; recognized the opportunity to learn from prof. traders, and really glad I'm here.
Followed the system this morning and got 3 winners 0 losers - real money ($1 per pip) and made 50 pips = 2.5% of account (er...kinda small, and we all gotta start where we can afford ;-)) ).

Oh... these were the 3 easiest trades I've ever done; like mangoes falling from the tree into my hand ..... SWEET

Am following to see where this goes, and learning along the way.

thanks for your post, I agree with you, however in the two charts that you have posted......how do you know PA is going to run, and when it is going to range.......it is easy in hindsight....in the ranging chart.....there were several bars in a row before it reversed.
The 64 million dollar question is.....how do you know PA is going to run enough to grab 10 (or more pips)

sincerely

you will never know, but if looking back i see a clean chart, moving well and it's not just running in a 20 pip range and big wicks. i feel better taking the trade. if it's running in a small range and a mess. I never try to get it's first move out of it. I'll wait on a better set up and make it prove it's self to me. Why I really like the 2nd bounce

Hi Everyone

Confined to barracks this afternoon so had an unexpected opportunity to trade. Just out of mischief, I though I would try OIL. I saw it in my terminal and just wondered how it would go.

I am now working my way into the +5 mindset which takes some getting used to!

Results attached. Achieved my +1.75% for the day (had to stop to go to the airport) but you can get some results even from the most appallingly choppy PA at +5.

Chart shows details of a few scalps on the 5-pip Renko. I didn't even use Trix here -- just using a "feel"...
Hi Anne

hope all is well in jolly old England.....almost as nice a place as Scotland....anyways.....I was just about to press buy and get me some of that Renko stuff......but then I stopped......I wanted to find out if I can legally use it on more than one computer (I know you are not legal council for their licensing ha ha).....I trade from 3 different computers and I am just about to move to a broker than has a lower spreads.....so I may have two accounts for a while.....so I wanted to find out if you know if I could use the renko bars on different cpus......by the way, I snagged 34 pips today....I was being careful due to Bernanke speaking

best wishes

Morning all,

For all those with the problem where you get a blank window whan adding TRIX MTF indicators.

I had this problem yesterday and found that the MTF indicators require smSuperTRIX version 1 in your indicator folder. I had replaced version one with the newer version 2 and created the problem. As soon as I put version 1 back in the indi folder all worked OK.

No, you didn't disturbed me at all, what DM3554 replied you that fixes 99% of non showing indy issues. Delete indy, download again all of them from SwingMan, restart MT4.

Could SM or some programmer please create a real-time MTF indicator?
This is an indicator that will not include equal bars of the LAST value, but the real value that the indicator had in the higher timeframe, shown in the lower one.
This would end the mtf repainting and it would make the indicator good for backtesting.
Q - I use this indicator for backtesting with MTF TRIX values. Hope you find it useful.

Check please "char for char" if the name is actually "smSuper TRIX_v1.ex4" in your folder!
If so, the MTF indicators MUST function.

yes, i thought so too, when i looked at it. but there was a trade that was +11 on the e/u. that was a winning trade but it seems 2 violate the rules too. trade well
I think you're talking about the trade that made +10...

If you watch my chart, the trade that made +11 respects the rules...TRX 5M crossed down and I entered...I not always watch the 15M confirmation...as you see...

The next trade...that made 10 pips...in this case you're right, it breakes the rules, was an "instinctive trade".....but if you watch...the TRIX 15M was crossing down and PA was simply free falling...with 5M TRIX that breaked his previous low...(i noticed that these breaks of the TRIX often give good trades).
Why don't take this trade? This is the "feeling" with the PA i talked about...that i'm trying to learn having...

Same story for the +10 on AU....like Edge says...all these 4 pairs are very correlated...often the same thing happens on all....

I'm afflicted that i did not take the same trade on EURJPY but not always my finger is so fast.....

I hope to make trades like these every day...

Sorry, PipsRider. I think I uploaded the file with the wrong filename (it did not have a space between 'Super' and 'TRIX'). Very sorry.
