EntryMinATR is not a multiplier, it is a level that ATR should exceed. If current ATR is 0.002 you can set EntryMinATR to 0.003 so that trades are opened only when ATR is greater than 0.003.
Got it! Thanks

When I attempt to run the .exe file to install v0.9, it craps out and gives me a windows error.

Karun and all the development team and contributors.

Have just downloaded v9.

What you guys have accomplished is truly phenomenal, no words can possibly describe it fully. You should all be very proud of your achievement.

With the highest regards

Thanks again for all, and special thanks to Cobra and xux

Many thanks to XuX, Cobra, and others for their tireless work in developing and testing this great EA, and for sharing it so freely.
I haven't posted much because my schedule has become very busy. I also live in a timezone 12 hours ahead of US and most of you are sleeping when I can get online.
I also don't understand the settings of the EA well enough yet. Nevertheless, the EA performs well and keeps account in the black. Once I work through the manual and find a secret setting combination http://www.forexfactory.com/images/icons/icon6.gif I'll post it.

Also, Kaz is such a prolific poster that he beats me to the punch every time I think I have found something; he is there first. Thanks to you also, Kaz!
I hope you all collect many pips!

Hi XuX
Just a quick question..how do we back-test the EntryMinATR? I mean what number do we use.. when I use the MT4 ATR indicator in back-tests it shows .234 while same thing in fwd test says at .0002. I am a little confused.. I am trying to use ATR number .00025 as the filter..how do we do it in backtest? .00025 or .25?

I seem to have a knack of confusing myself on small things..so please bear with me..

Cheers

I have attached THV EA v0.9. This is the last beta version, the next version will have no restrictions. The new features are Outside bar pattern, minimum ATR entry filter, ADX level entry filter, alerts, three trading sessions and a user defined number of losses to trigger martingale. I would also like to thank FX Dragon for his help in the user guide.
what timeframe I must to use for forward test /I mean default set THV EA v0.9/? thanks.

Hi Guys
I am having trouble adjusting the FFcal indis time to brokers time. Works fine on odl but lags behind on others.Just testing on alpari and its an hour late. Any idea what I am doing wrong?

Kaz

Got it..simple adjustment to PC clock.
Hey Kaz, to get the problem sorted out do you literally have to change your pc clock? Shouldnt there be something in the FFCAL code that can be changed that will be able to give the correct news based on the GMT you are currently situated?

I am having the same problem where the news I receive is 1 hour ahead. But when I changed my computer clock to 1 hour ahead, the issue was sorted out.
Is there any other solution apart from the changing the clock?

Thanks.

Hello all,
Just downloaded and setup THV MTF EA. Looking forward to help test as needed.

Thanks again for the great work by everyone involved.

BTW, I noticed a small typo in the documentation, PriceTouchSRLevel does not take boolean values, uses integers like PriceTouchPychLevel.

I think the GetTimZoneInformation function calls the local clock on the computer to get the info, which makes sense. Only problem for me was I don't live in areas, where we use DST, so thats why I need to adjust. I don't mind it at all.

You might need to contact the coder of the indi for further explanation.

ATR depends on timeframe and pair. It should be the same in backtest and forward test charts.

May I jump in...
No offence bro..but by the looks of it you don't seem know much about THV at all...let alone the EA which requires in depth understanding of settings which are at a more advanced level than basic manual THV system. Please do your due dilligence as most of us have and read the whole THV thread plus this EA thread before asking such questions. There are plenty of people here to help the hard working ones..

By the way default set is just an example of how to use the EA. It may or may not work on pairs/TF's you are planning on testing.

All the best

Kaz
