Ozma as Tread mentioned, this is not a bot! He uses it as an alert to look at the chart and to decide to get in. I have been using this in this method using his default sets for 1 + 5 min charts and have been successful. I use cavemanager as a trade management tool on another chart once im n the trade.

Have you tried trading the system bare without the use of this EA?

Once u understand the core system then you will be able to understand the EA more. This is how i learnt and this is how everyone should learn it. There is no such thing as free...
I have been trading more than half a year in the system. good trade. My questions are not about the system. questions I had about EA.

I have been trading more than half a year in the system. good trade. My questions are not about the system. questions I had about EA.

Ok so if you were trading this system manually, where would you of taken out?

Once again as Tread mentioned he uses it as an alert tool. Not as a bot.

You as the trader must decide whether or not to stay in the trade rather than letting the EA take you out.

However, if you are lookign to turn it into a bot then you as the trade will need to tell it how u wnat it to get out of a trade and configure it that way.

How i trade it is use the EA as an alert to look at the chart, confirm it is good then execute manually. Once in the trade, the cavemanager will watch my trade based on stop, BE, TP and even rolling stop. So either cavemanager will take me out at profit/loss or i iwll get out manually once things dont tie up with the charts. Bascially if my 1 min trade turns into a good trade kickstarting a trade in the 5 min then i will trf across to the 5 as i am in the longer term trend. This way i am able to maximise my returns.

Have you considered using Cavemanager? i know Tread uses that as well.

In my opinion i think it will be hard to turn THV into a fully automated system due to the variables avail. But i wish u the best of luck.
Hope this helps.

Yeap i agree. If we can get it all onto 1 then excellent. Saves having extra charts and extra EA killing my PC even more

Im looking for 10 pips on 5 digit broker, I notice that in the MM section TP is set at 4.0. I just had a trade open and it went for 15 pips in the green to close out at break even.

How do I set for 10 pips ? what value do I use ?

Running EA on 1 min chart.
Look at something long enough, you will eventually get it.

when the EA is loaded, is anybody getting a non stop error message saying:

FFCal error | Web page download was not completed.

This Alert pops up like once every 10 seconds which means it eats all bandwidth. once the MT4 opens, you struggle just to shut it off since this Alert stating: FFCal error | Web page download was not completed.... pops up so often and so quickly...

it is also probably due to the fact that I do not know how to trade hands ...

I'm afraid to ask questions. Too often I hear a response - go learn to trade hands. guys, before you answer something like: first go learn how to trade me, then ask questions, think: maybe I'm not the best? may asks a trader with some sort of experience? and maybe it's worth it to answer the question, as it does Tread? and not send it learns and does not show any images unrelated to the Forum?

example here, the adviser is not entered on the rules that I asked him. and this is not the first time.

Oz, I understand your your situation, but the problem is that you are asking basic questions that can be associated with not knowing the core system well enough. it is one thing to read about the system and quite another to trade it.

Take for example your latest question, showing the Trade taken yet the Trix are not Crossed or showing Red. If you had traded the system manually you would know that all Trix indicators repaint themselves. That means that at some point the trix would have crossed and gone red, but the FINAL position of the Trix was what you see.

The indicators are there purely for visual confirmation, all calculations are done internally, so as far as the EA is concerned the Trix were crossed at some point in time.


If you searched the topic you would have seen where I advised NOT to run the EA on all pairs in one MT4 Terminal, but to load multiple terminal, otherwise this can lead to problems. Notice you are the only one so far who is having this issue. To Avoid the issue of trads being opened prematurly do not Load the Client with the MAX pairs. Also before closing the terminal turn off the expert advisors, so the next time you open up the client trades are not taken... all basics that you should know.

The fact is, this is not an EA that is close to being automated anytime soon, even cobra has said this. Any success that you will get from this will only be is can trade the system manually.

The reason I keep at it, it that I use it semi automatically and the hit rates are improving.

If you are looking for a system that can be fully automated and is running, search the forums for the NanningBob method.

Understand this, scalping is already regarded as tuff task, a program that scalps fully automatically and profitaby is even more difficult.

Running EA on 1 min chart.
TakeProfit1 =4
TakeProfitType =1 (means use ATR based profit taking)

for just 10 Pips

TakeProfit1 =10
TakeProfitType1 =0

Yup i checked in on my terminal, got a bunch of them over the past 2 days .... usually means that it not getting the news from FF. Not much we can do about it at this stage. if it get annoying, remove the indicator from the template. The EA does it stuff internally, so you do not need it on the chart

Ok. I thought about repainting. I have not read about the system, I told her I trade. but what about the sets that I attached?

The set look fine, it looks as thou you want to use it on the 15M Chart? The only recommendation i would make is to use a Slow Trix also ....try the H1 Slow ...you never know..it could give better results ..

Just rename it file.txt to file.set
or u can use command prompt / cmd instead
like


this report using ozma set file and modified by tread.

ren file.txt file.set (enter)


All the txt file I post can be automatically read by the EA.

When the EA is attached to the chart
1.) Choose Load
2.) When the box comes up, change "File of Type" from "Expert Set" to "All Files"
3.) then just find the txt file and choose "Ok"

Tread another question. Often advisor closes deal for no reason. As here for example. Why?

TrailingStop = 10
TrailingStart = 15

Those settings mean that after moving 15 pips in profit, your stop will now be trailing 10 pips being the current price.

What is happening is that the price is retracing and you are getting stopped out

Tread

Enjoying your holiday watch the misus hehehe

Cannot agree more with Tread. Learn the core THV system then read this whole EA thread. Unfortunately if you want to make money then you will have to put some work in.

To be perfectly honest with everyone, I have been prop trading for well over 5 years at a bank. I was told about this system by a friend so thought i would have a look. Even with my experience I still read post 1 numerous times and read every single post in the THV thread and in this EA thread. I have then practiced scalping using the THV system fully manually for 2 weeks to get use to the methodology behind it and how powerful it is. So yes i can trade it manually but would only be able to manage about 4-5 pairs at the most as this system requires full focus at all times due to the short M1/M5 timeframe. Knowing this system coupled with my knowledge of the most important PA i felt it was time to use Treads EA to provide an alert (similar to Sellers Alert). The alert simply opened a trade ticket for that CCY pair. I then go to the chart to analyse the core setup with ADX added. If it ties in then i get into the trade (yes although late but rather later than too early and getting into a poor setup) and manage the trade using cave manager. This has been very successful for me based on the trades I am doing. I thank Tread for training me up on this and being there for assistance when required. Spot on tread, u da man
