Need help: Improving my HUD

I don't know if this is the right section ?!

I can describe the method I use for coloring stats briefly.

In HM2 you can now configure color schemes, which is very nice.
I have on color scheme for a loose<>tight ranged stat and a different color scheme for an aggro<>passive ranged stat. You should select colors that make intuitive sense to you.

Then for deciding on the color ranges you go to HM1:players, HM2: Opponents: Summaries. Here you find at least a good number of stats with their averages and common deviations. You set the most common stat to neutral (/or you define neutral as what you find unexploitable) and color tight/loose/aggro/passive in accordingly.

I have no idea how river agg% is distributed, but I think it certainly belongs to the aggro<>passive scheme. I think agg% are centered around 30+-2, so maybe do
21-24: very passive
25-28: passive
29-31: normal
32-35: aggro
35+: very aggro

But maybe its not around 30%, I dont know, your stat :). If you dont even know what it looks like you should probably not use it, by the way.

I use this method
VPIP PFR green means fish, red means nit ( I only use this, because thats how I got used to it over the last 3years, hem standard)
but everything else I use this
green = good
red = bad

so I color everything, low steal = green, big steal = red, same with everything, 3bet, 4bet 5bet, flop turn river cbet, fold to cbet, absolutely everything, so when I look at the stat ( I have 5row hud) I instantly know if its good or bad for me. and I have in between colors, orange means the most in between, thats for good standard players (balanced). yellow is above green so not that good but still pretty good.

Its a question of how you are used to things but I believe for me at least this is the best, I couldn't ever play poker again without these colors, absolutely neccesary for me. The only thing I have on light blue is the agg, so its very easy to find between green/yellow/orange/red, because I know what aggro number is good and what is bad, otherwise it would be hard to find it. I use HEM1 still btw, too many bugs in HM2. Best is to manually edit every %, because for example on NL10 a river agg of 15-20% is very common, most players have that, but at NL100 15% is insanely nitty. GL

Personally my HUD just contains the most important Preflop and Flop stats. These are the spots which come up the most often. Then I just rely heavily on popups for Turn/River/Unique Situations/Positional PF stats.

I think after some vary basic stats, having too many on your screen in confusing instead of helpful.

Also in every circumstance you will be needing different stats.

Try a clean hud, and then try a stat heavy one, both have their benefits and see which suits. Personally I preferred a clean hud and when necessary bringing up the popup, you get used to it eventually.

Honestly I would just buy a made hud on 2p2. I paid $99 for 3 huds and NC package. It's very well organized and color coded.
