THV system, V4 version

by: cobraforex

I found the THV setup very easy to observe and to work with and started to get everything together on the MT4 platform in october 2008. There is not too much left from the first chart of Turhovach, we added the THV Trix indicator which is the heart of the final product.

The main V4 rules:


Entry: Above Coral only long, below Coral only short
Price crosses cloud - both Trix cross each other and have the same color.
Best and most secure trend confirmation is a cross of the fast Trix on the zero level.

Exit:Faster Trix changes color and/or touch of a known good resistance/support level.


Other reasons to take profit can be: Touch of a trend line, resistance or support line, horizontal psych level (00 - 20 - 50 - -80) or a black cat that cross your screen


Stop Loss: please set your stop loss according to your money management plan, as higher your TF that you trade as lower you set the pip value and as higher the Stop Loss, also it depends on the currency pair that you are trading.


I use THV mainly for scalp trades but many traders use it in higher time frames.
We, the THV team proved it only on 1M and 5M. The 1M TF is only for extreme scalping and needs good FX skills !!!



These are the only rules; anything else depends on your basic knowledge on FX and your feelings.


My special thanks to SpecialED, TradeWell and Eddiemiller for trying the first beta setups, Doblece for helping me in MT4 V220 compiling issues and AK4X to keep me always in good mood and suggesting to open this thread.

And at the end to Turhovach for pesenting his charts and settings in FF and so making me suspicious what is behind of that and last but not least, my wife, giving me the time to get all this done.


Also thanks to MissPips for the developement of the MTF trading method, to Traderathome for his efforts on the contionious developement of the THV Pivot indicator, to Peter D for the birth of the THV Info indicator, Caveman for the developement of the THV Cavemanager, xux99 for his inconditional developement of the THV EA and finally to Stratman for his mini chart indicator.
There are many more to thank but the list will be too long.

Top 100 Online Forex Brokers by Popularity

The Popularity Rankings below are determined by the broker's website popularity, both in terms of website traffic and links to the website from other places on the Internet, and the number of individual trader ratings. We are not trying to determine the largest broker as in total trading volume but rather the broker that has the most interest to the greatest number of individual retail traders. In other words, someone with a $50 account counts just as much as someone with $1,000,000 account. In the future we hope to incorporate the actual number of individual retail accounts into the calculation when that information is available. We will also track whether a forex broker is moving up or down in the rankings and how much.                           Popularity Rankings are presented for informational purposes only.

4 internal hurdles that affect trading success

These internal hurdles set back personal trading performance Is trading success determined by nature or nurture? Certainly there are personal traits that are a ‘gift’ to some traders and there are those that handicap others. Good thing is traits are not cast in stone.With determination and help, individuals can modify their own behaviour. Internal hurdle 1 – Cannot follow rule In a traffic system that has clear rules, there are still individuals who choose not to comply at the risk of their own safety Act according to personal whims Harmful, self-destructive behaviour Unable to follow plan Internal hurdle 2 – Like to catch a falling knife Catching low is a phenomenon that happens more often in the stock market among individual investors than in forex trading. Cheap can get cheaper. Then when price is zero, well it is really really cheap. If hurdles 1 and 2 are most associated with individuals who have very strong opinion about what they want to do

Williams %R

The Williams %R is an indicator developed by Larry Williams and is similar to the Stochastic Oscillator in calculation but where the Stochastic compares the close to the lowest low over a specified period, the Williams %R compares the close to the highest high over a specified period. The Williams %R is sometimes called Williams Overbought/Oversold Index. When prices are trending, Oscillators like the Williams and Stochastics should be viewed with a careful eye when looking at overbought and oversold signals.  Generally, when the oscillator is in overbought territory, a crossover into the middle range for the indicator is a signal that prices may fall near term.
