I also can't speak for Cobra - it's his system and thread. However, actually all the source code for the basics of the system is available.

The THV T3 Trix contains the basic code for the Trix, and Cobra published it here in the thread ages ago. It just isn't fancy with changing colors based on the slope of the trix lines, divergence lines and analyze buy and analyze sell notifications. But it gets the job done.

The Coral is also here in the thread (see the code for T3 M5 or HelpY), except these also don't change color when the slope of...

Good day to every one.

Anybody know how to setting MTF indicator so it can shows previous history more longer?
Cause after go backward around 1000 bar (1min TF), MTF indicator colour is not same as TRIX indicator.

Thanks
Hi Trader2012,

I'm speaking purely from memory so I might be speaking complete and absolute rubbish!

I think the "problem" is that, for performance reasons, brokers only retain a certain amount of data which can be accessed readily, e.g. 1,000 bars for each timeframe. And I don't think it is easy to download, say 10,000 bars of data from the broker (can't remember why!)

Technically, you can download as much data as you want from the Metaquotes History Centre (Tools -> History Centre -> Download) but will get a warning that the Metaquotes data may differ from your broker data. The simple fact is that each broker will have slightly different quotes at each time interval, so you now have a mixture of Metaquotes data and say, Alpari data in your MT4 platform, and this will reflect on the signals you may or may not have seen in the past. In other words, you cannot rely on the mixed data for back-testing.

Now if you are really keen on doing this, let me know because some-where on my laptop I have guide on how to merge the data "properly" for reliable back-testing.

If you use the SAH instead of the MTF Trix you can use the TrixNoofBars param to control how many bars the indicator goes back. However you should be aware of 2 things

1) The trix is very resource intensive, therefore setting this param to a high number can slow down your MT4.

2) If the reason you want to do this is to 'backtest' please read my previous posts about why you can't use MTF indicators to backtest (unless you leave your computer and MT4 on (and hope it doesn't disconnected) for the entire period you want to 'backtest' - in which case it is really a forward test not a backtest.

Hi forexgator,

I bet its only matter of setting. The data is there, TRIX indicator can compute it, but MTF stop computing after certain bars. Here is the attachment of trix properties; it has number of bar for you to set.
Anyway, thanks for responding . I hope MissPip the creator could answer that.

The SAH is an updated form of the MTF trix. Since this is Cobra's thread, I can't post updates on the first page, so that is why you will find it in my posts and not on the first page. (Also since it provides other indicators besides the trix, it isn't strictly part of THV). The difference between it and the MTF Trix is that by using the SAH you can mix and match different types of indicators (such as the ADX or moving averages) or even different trix conditions ( such as trix divergence or trix lines above/below 0) in the four rows, while the MTF...

and this one

http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...05#post4864505

for an explanation of how to use it.

The SAH lets you see multiple timeframes as well as multiple indicators. It is a more advanced version of the Trix MTF, providing better control over timeframes, indicators and alerts.

For example you can get alerts for any combination of rows you want. It also has a better auto timeframe feature. For example, using the Trix MTF on the one minute chart you might use the 1m f trix, the 5m fast trix, the 5m slow trix and the 15m fast trix. Now suppose you change the chart to the 5 m and want to keep the same relationship. Using the Trix MTF you have to reinput 5m f trix, 15m f trix 15m slow trix, 30 m fast trix. Using the SAH, in the first case you input the timeframes as 0, -1, -1 and -2. On the one m chart that showed you the 1m, 5m, 5m and 15m timeframes and when you changed the chart to the 5m timeframe it automatically shows you the 5m, 15m 15m and 30 m timeframes

Also you can get more options for the trix - for example some people like to trade only if the fast and/or slow trix is above zero, so I put that in there. Or some people like to trade when both trix lines are the same color but they don't mind if they have crossed yet, so that's in there.

Or you can get alerts for when all the THV conditions (coral, cloud, trix) are met.

Also you can use other indicators. For example a lot of people like confirmation from the ADX because it confirms direction and not just momentum, so that's in there. Or some people like to trade trix signals after squeezes, so there are a variety of ways find the squeezes, like the TDI band squeeze or the MA squeezes.

Can someone please tell me what the three or four lines above the price in the trix options corner when I turn on Trix for scalping inside the properties tab? It's above the price and trix cross, option, action alert to the right of the Trix Indi. Just want an idea on what that does or how to read it. Couldn't find it anywhere in the manual.

MissPips,
Thank you so much for your contribution to the THV system. I have a question regarding the new SAH 4.76 version. I haven't been able to find out instructions on how to use this indi. The one I am familiar with is the trix4 MTF. Also there are no labels showing up to the right of the indi so I have no clue how to read the color bars in the new SAH. I even have label set to true in the properties section. I have been using the scalping template and the same settings that is in your user manual that I downloaded with all the THV4 version stuff. Has anything change with your system in relations to working with the THV system?

Also can you help explain to me what those four bars are inside the trix 4 above the live price? I haven't been able to find out how to read that. It turns on when I select scalp in the trix properties menu.

Thank you very much once again. I look forward to your reply.

The indi at the bottom of the chart is from stratman's "pip-ware charts" indi. You can download it from his website. Just sign up to be a newsletter member and you can download for free. He is part of the THV team. That's the easiest way to get it instead of looking through all the post.

Re no labels on the SAH. Is your chart background black? If so change the text color to white instead of black.

If your chart is not black try zooming out, and if you can see the labels after you zoom out then you may need to adjust the h_shift param so that you can see them at your preferred magnification.

For instructions about the options the SAH offers, see this post:

http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...05#post4864505

If you mean instructions for how to configure it to find the 6 lights setups, explained in the MTF manual, you can configure it the same regarding the etypes (i.e 0 = slow trix, 1 equals fast trix) but for the periods you now use 0 , -1, -1, -2, -2, -3,-3, -4 which corresponds to 1m, 5m, 5m,15m, 15m, 30m,30m and 60m on a one minute chart, but keeps the same relationship between the timeframes if you switch to a higher timeframe chart (i.e on a 5m chart it is 5m, 15m, 15m, 30m, 30m 60m, 60m and 240m).

Re has anything changed in my trading On a 1m chart I now mostly prefer to trade 'inside' a 5m trix cross, when it is supported by the 15m trix. I have posted many charts showing this setup. I do sometimes also trade when I get the same relationship on a 5 m chart (i.e the 15 and 30 are newly crossed up and the 5m fast switches to the same color).

For me the main key is that I am looking for the trixes (and the rainbow and chart patterns) to confirm a trade for me in an area where I expect there to be one. For example, I will look for an area where I expect good support or resistance, then watch to see if there is a lot of chopping around on the rainbow or if a pattern like a 1-2-3, double bottom or h&s forms, then enter if the trixes and rainbow confirm that a new trend has started. Or else where they confirm that S or R has broken and the trend is continuing.

If you mean instructions for how to configure it to find other trade setups, there are none. That is up to every trader how he or she wants to configure the SAH. A few people have been kind enough to share their other configurations, which you can find by reading the thread.

Re the THV4 trix, I wasn't part of developing it and don't use it (I don't like the black configuration and the extra bells and whistles. ) I think Cobra and Stratman did it so you might ask them what the bars are for. Or I think you can find an explanation in the thread. I remember that someone did explain it once but I didn't pay attention to who it was because I don't use it myself so I won't be able to find it any quicker than you will yourself.
