I've been trying to find instructions on what the chop histo measures but have been unable. Can somebody who knows post the link or give a brief explanation? Thanks.

The chop histo is derived from Dean Malone from CompassFx's suggestion that you should not trade a pair when the HA candles on the four hour chart are between the 5 period smoothed MA based on the price high and the 5 period smoothed MA based on the price low. I adapted this as a signal for any time period, not just the 4 hour because when you are trading the 1m chart you can still get trades when the four chart is in the channel but when the 15 and 5 charts are in the channel it's tough.

It is red whe the HA candles are below the channel, green when they are above it and yellow (or empty in the case of the SAH ) when they are in it. He also uses it as a signal to trade when the candles are above or below it, though we should wait for confirmation from THV.

The code for calculating the values of the chop histo is in this post

Hello everyone.
It was just to say that I'll give a try to the THV system.
I've read the whole thread from start to grasp the philosophy behind THV. That was quite something.

Right now I'm using it in demo and it's quite tough. Altough the rules are simple I have difficulties to really judge if it's a true signal or not. When you go backwards it's easy to analyze. But when you see the PA moving it's really hard.

So far I have 30% of success.

If you guys could you give me a precision. Do you test rules on the past candle or current candle ?

Thanks for the system anyway I'm sure I'll master it one day.

Hi Derox, I am only a newbie at playing with the cavemanger. It has helped me alot as i have no self control so it takes all the human side out of closing trades for me. Below is a screenshot of my settings but maybe more exp people will have more of an idea then me, there is also a link included below to the PDF cavemanger 1.41 user manual.

Maybe a more exp person can tell you about the no loss buffer, I am going to go and experiment with it now.

Hi Leo

Since Trix default is 20/35 and the Stoch is 8/3/3, you will always have the stoch being quicker. However when you compare both the trix and stoch using the same averaging period, in my opinion, the trix reacts faster, especially for spotting divergences

See comparison of 8/13 Trix and 8/3/3 Stoch

It also helps in identifying the divergences earlier that using stochastic for the same 8 period average of the stochastic

Hi Tread,

Thanks for you help. I think because the Trix i am using is an old version. This version of Trix i am using cannot change the setting. Please take a look at the photo

Can you upload the Trix you are showing on the picture so I can download it?
thanks Tread.

See Attached

It is included in the V4 installer, along with templates

EDIT:

V4 trix has a parameter called "hot (1.2)" and is different from V3 Trix hot which is set to 0.7. The hot parameter can be seen in the diferent amplitudes of the Trix

To stick to use a V3 Trix with configurable parameter use the MTF Trix v1.9

Leoforex,

trading THV on 4h hour... what´s been your experience so far? How long have you been trading it on a time frame this high?

Thank you
Trading 4 hour Chart can give me a clear idea than smaller time frame. I have been trading in about one month. I think using THV can trade any time frame. It is a good trading system.

I figured I'd start posting some of my trades as this thread seems to be slowing down. I took this trade a couple of hours ago. I typically go for 10-15 pips per trade with a 15 pip sl.
