the only problem with that is....just prior to the second divergence arrow after your red vertical line, both trixes would have crossed back into the green. what would have been your reasons to stay in the trade?

unless you had other indicators or reasons, i think the trader would have left the trade just before it plummeted down...
95% of those traders are loosing....... I know that we are currently in a good down move...

slightly off topic...well actually completely off topic.....

out of curiosity, when you drink, how does it effect the insomnia? doesn't work?

or do you get into a state where you can't focus on forex AND you can't sleep either?

Tried it all, fatigue is a constant, the major problem is addiction, it is very easy to develop negative habits, Im lucky as I channel all efforts in forex, it consumes so much time and is so exhaustive that it actually helps. I am average on the patience.

No Alcohol...it a depressant, the idea is to stay away from anything that is habit forming.

You got to remember that Trix show momentum and gives short term direction. The whole idea is to stick with the trend, which is why the EMA and ADX (our primary trend tools) are monitored.
Thank you Tread for all your support, so, we have to enter a trade only whith trix in the direction of the trade? when the EMA and ADX were in place?

Hi friends,
I started tu use THV while ago. Just one question. ALL ADX doesn't show the TF labels very often. If I scroll the chart back the labels appear.
Is there a way to fix it or it just happens sometimes and it is not necessary to care about it?

Hi Tread,

Another method for entry you mentioned was the EMA retracement, as shown in the videos you posted. Where do you take the entry point for these?

Do you: 1. Take entry after a retrace between 13 and 21 EMA and hope it will carry on the trend? (not waiting for trix cross)

2. Take entry after retrace between 13 and 21 EMA and then wait for trix confirmation on M1 with ADX?

3. Take entry after retrace between 13 and 21 EMA and then wait for trix on m5 and adx (at which point it seems very late)?

4. Take entry after retrace between 13 and 21 EMA and then wait for M1 trix cross, adx and supported by M5 fast trix?

5. Take entry after retrace between 13 and 21 EMA and then wait for M1 trix cross, adx and supported by M5 fast trix, slow trix and m15 fast trix (at which point it seems miles too late)?

or another method?

Thanks Tread

Hi all,

Was anyone in one the GBPUSD trade this morning. I was in until yesterday's high, then exited as news pending that was forecast not favourable. Although I bagged good pips, had I stayed in I could have bagged 35 pips more. Is this just one of those cases where I did right as news could have impacted the opposite way? Or should I have stayed in?

Some advice please?

Hi Pip

I am still trying to bring it in to the thv method, as it is typically a standalone type entry.

The general premise is that the ADX and Trend (34EMA) have to still be strong What THV adds to the method is momentum. In testing, with the 13/21 compressing, I get better results with just using the Fast Trix and Waiting for it to clear the Ichimoku (setting 2/2/8).

Regarding the news, you did the right thing. whether or not the news is expected to be good/bad in support of your current trade, once the news is released the market can flinch, this can cause you sl to be easily hit before it corrects itself in the other direction.

Protect you gains and capital. I rather commiserate leaving pips on the table rather than risk loosing it all.

BL888,

What made you stay in throughout the PMI release? Was it because the trend was strongly established or were you just risking it because you already had your capital protected?

Pip see pic attached.

This was from last night. This was on the EURAUD, 45 mins after the 100pip change in price.

I used the reentry for the EMA Compression, Ichimoku Clearance, Fast Trix. I also waited for price to clear recent high/close.

Second Picture is on the same trade on the M5, notice how the trend line remain nice and smooth?
