TRIX Indicator – FX Replay Guide
The TRIX (Triple Exponential Moving Average) in FX Replay is a momentum oscillator that filters out noise while highlighting shifts in trend strength. It’s excellent for spotting early momentum, reversals, or validating bias direction during backtesting.
How to Add It:
- Go to the Indicators panel
- Search for “TRIX”
- Add the indicator, and optionally enable the signal line (a moving average of the TRIX)
How to Use It in FX Replay:
Zero Line Interpretation:
- Above 0 = Bullish momentum → favor long setups
- Below 0 = Bearish momentum → favor short setups
- Use the zero-line cross as a filter for directional bias
Signal Line Crossovers:
- TRIX crossing above signal line = Potential buy signal
- TRIX crossing below signal line = Potential sell signal
- Use these crossovers during session windows (e.g., NY, London) for tighter confirmation
Divergence Analysis:
- Bullish divergence:
Price makes lower lows, TRIX makes higher lows → possible reversal - Bearish divergence:
Price makes higher highs, TRIX makes lower highs → fading strength
Pairing With Price Action:
Confirm TRIX setups with:
- Fair Value Gap (FVG) zones
- Smoothed Moving Average (SMMA) direction
- Liquidity sweeps or retests
Testing Strategies:
- Backtest using zero-line filters to avoid trades against the trend
- Example logic:
“Only take long trades if TRIX > 0 and price reclaims previous day’s high”
Pro Tip:
In FX Replay, TRIX shines when used as a bias confirmation tool.
Use it to avoid counter-trend trades and fine-tune reversal setups.
Combine with session-based tools or structural breaks to boost your win rate.
