nice graph.

Maybe you have some data fail at this point and its not the ea failure.
Did you tried it with price data from another supplier.

... when I put DistanceFromPsychLevel=10 to filter that entry, the Ea place an order on 1.3511 or 1.3489 if the conditions are still in order. It places the order even on the next candle. I don't know how to fix this...
Hello, exking!
Any reasoned decision, including the decision to open a trade, should be taken only in the presence of so-called sufficient conditions and necessary conditions. According to Tread, heart and brain of the advisor is Trix. That is why, in my opinion, sufficient conditions for the trade are determined by the options for Trix, and the necessary conditions are determined by such options as DistanceFromPsychLevel etc. I.e. advisor first waits sufficient conditions, and then proceeds to analyze the necessary conditions. And if the sufficient conditions still exist, then at the time of forming the necessary conditions (for example, DistanceFromPsychLevel) advisor opens a trade.
If I'm wrong, I hope that Tread will correct me.
Good luck.
P.S. Excuse me for my imperfect English.

Thanks but I think you didn't get what I meant, I don't think it has anything to do with data failure, I think it's just the way they coded the EA, in other items mostly this situation can be solved through fresh signal thing but in DistanceFromPsychLevels this can not be fixed.
Anyway how are you doing with this EA?

I think you're right, but if Tread was still here he could fix this in his new version, I hope he'll come back soon, thanks and how are the things going with this EA for you?

I'm still working on a demo account. Impressions from the advisor are not bad. If you thoughtfully work with its settings, then most likely you can get good results.
Now I worked through the following strategy to an advisor:

  1. to filter area with a weak trend and to get an advisor to trade only in areas with a strong trend. For these purposes, use the filter Damiani;
  2. in areas with a strong trend an advisor should take the earliest possible decision on opening a trade using FastTrixDirection.

Now I work with different filter Damiani and FastTrixDirection settings, as well as options StopLoss, TakeProfit, BreakEven, LockProfit and TrailingStop.

Good luck.
P.S. Excuse me for my imperfect English.

Hello Exking,

I would like to offer you some help in coding and fixing of this EA. I have long experience as a programmer, and decent experience in coding and testing of various EA for MT4 and MT5. Most of the EAs I have worked with were different form THV. However, I consider THV MTF is one of the most perspective EA because it takes into account most of factors any experience trader deals with.

If you need anything, feel free to contact me, and I will try to help.

Best Regards,
Nanaos

You can also use domiani on other time-frames, maybe that would help,
Let me know if you need any help,
and your English looks perfect and understandable to me, I'm not a native speaker too.

Hi nanaos,
Thanks for your offer,
I don't know anything about programming but as far as I know we don't have the source code here, can we do anything without that?

Hi,

I was following the thv system 2 years ago. As almost everybody else I find that it is a great system. I'm thinking to return to forex but I need an EA to help me, since I can't be glued to the screen.

I was thinking about setting the support and resistance levels, using them as SL and goal, and based on that and on the trend on a longer TF, letting the EA to open positions when the fast trix changes color on the direction of the trend.

For the exit I would like to use different rules depending on the distance to the goal (using a kind of trailing stop which would be closer to the price when it is approaching the next resistance in long trades). I would like also that the SL advances with relatives tops and bottoms of the trade.

I wonder if it is possible to adjust the settings of this EA to work in this way.


Thanks for your help

Yes, it's possible, you just have to make your own set-file, do it by reading the user guide of v1.134,

I started with writing some easy buy/sell Eas only to see how it work.

But what i see till now is, you can use backtesting ONLY to see
does the EA works.

For adjusting or improving the strategy backtesting is wasted time imo..
I use live trading on a demo account for adjusting.
And i read somewhere that demo also differs from a real account
so backtesting->demo->real

Please correct me if im wrong.

Edit: i rent a VPS and run 5-10 accounts with the same EA with different settings.
Then pickup the best results/settings adjust again and then test 5-10 instances again.
And i see i need another one VPS

Maybe its a little of topic, but like i wrote i started coding and need some
illustrative material.

I need a simple Buy or Sell Ea (not a script) that makes a trade and that was is.
Found some here on FF but they dont work well. One sells only with sell stop or limit the another makes false lot calculations.

I need one that makes a immediate market order when he get activated.
additional it would be great if he deactivates it self after the trade..

Someone knows one ?
btw. thanks for NOT answering me that on a EA thread
my ea experts and set file lurkers

Easy answer for Sell EA. Cave Manager 1.41. Thanks Caveman.
What a masterpiece. Complex but simply.

You can make a complete exit strategy only with the given setting capabilities.

Hi hir0406,
I'm not sure I understand what you mean, do you want the EA to take the trade in opposite direction? For example when all conditions are in order for buy signal you want the EA to place a sell?

I'm afraid this can not be done through this EA but you can choose to take only buy orders or sell orders but not sell order for both sell and buy signals.
This way when you load the EA on the chat before you press OK, you see a little window with two tabs, one of them is "Common" and the other one is "Inputs", on the "Common" tab, first parameter is "Positions", you can choose "Long & Short", "Buy Only", or "Short Only" on this parameter, you can do this on any EA.

Hi everybody,
The thread becomes so silent, I'm still working on the EA, it seems to be going well but when I have a question I don't know who to ask since Tread isn't here anymore, anyway I ask my question maybe someone comes and can help me:
For example there is a false entry on 1.3506, when I put DistanceFromPsychLevel=10 to filter that entry, the Ea place an order on 1.3511 or 1.3489 if the conditions are still in order. It places the order even on the next candle. I don't know how to fix this.
I wish Tread would be here yet, I hope he'll be...
Hi,
I'd like to do some testing. Can you post your set file please and tell me which version of the EA? I'll then report back.
Same for anyone else.
