I love Forex so I've watched 1000's of Forex videos here on UA-cam and elsewhere. VP I have to say, your stuff is rare and unique as a diamond. You are a real blessing to the Forex community and those willing to put in the work. Thanks VP!
Yes!! For anyone who just stumbled on this channel, I implore you on behalf of your future trading accounts to go to the first videos and watch them in order. I promise you at first you will have an 'a-ha' moment, then you will test a bunch of indicators that are garbage...but then you will have mined gold! But you do need to start at the beginning, there is a method to the madness. In the end you will be free from such things as trying to decipher chart patterns and where to to draw fib lines, and you will be left with a rule based system that you have personally checked and double checked. VP's method is akin to him teaching you how to build a car vs. teaching you how to drive 'someones' car. You will know where every bolt goes and why! Pure gold!
The best, strongest statement! its like you are sitting in a class and everything goes quiet and smooth, you listen, you take notes, nothing stays in a head, just wind blows... and all of a sudden, out of the blue, the lecturer shakes the whole class verbally, and in a split second you put all the stuff in your head, and feel energized (sort of like when you get the wings when you drink red bull), and you feel thirst for more knowledge. Thanks VP!
Dude thanks so much man. I love what you say about us being able to say "this is the fruits of my labor, this is what I created" vs. you telling us what your specific baseline that you use is. You give us a framework, and we get to test and fill it in. I'm still working through babypips and then will be able to dive deeply into your videos, but I still watch around 1 of your videos per day even as I'm moving through babypips. Getting pumped for my journey! Cheers
I have struggled with this issue for so long close to 2 years (here and there).... but I'm finally out of the trap now by simply choosing an efficient one. Pretty Neat & Logical !!!! I haven't shared this trick, let alone the MA setting. Totally with VP for "Keep it to yourself" Approach For those who can digest this, please be cautious that different FX pairs do react to different MA settings go scrap, time to time due to various reasons of news& events.
Revisiting your older videos, and just for fun, I put a fast period setting on a MA on the chart and it actually performed better than all the exit indicators I tested rarely hitting my stop loss and not taking me out while the price is still trending. Thanks a lot, VP!!
I came on late this time because of duty, but following VP is infectious, and I couldn't sleep without going through his rich content delivered today. Thanks VP, I didn't know that I have arrived at the destination since two months now. I've used the MAs as my baseline since last year when I started watching Steve Primo's videos,but I didn't seem to agree with the 50SMA that he uses as baseline. I needed to enter trades much earlier. This led me to VP's channel and then the HMA indi that changes colour based on trend direction. I tweaked it until it's now serving me with results. I love it because it takes me in on time and takes care of the colour change that's known with Heikin A. It doesn't repaint. In combination with the VPT (which I tweaked), they combine with one other confirmation Indi, then Volume Indi to give me a canary song trading. I'm no more scared of entering trades when my algo gives me a shout out. I looked for dead markets of almost ranging currency pairs to test since February, so I know whenever I lose, it is minimal and rare. The lose I remember was a NZD flash news that made NZDJPY to drop by over 125 pips. Thanks VP for tweaking my mindset from PA to proven Indies. I believe I've 3 indi combinations forming like 3 Algos now that I can use to earn. So I'll keep practicing until I get enough results to trade for prop firm.
Thank you VP. I have been doing split forward testing. On one hand is a C1 that backtests lots of trades and produces a large net return over 2 years, but low ROI. On the other hand is the C1 that has a high ROI, but produces few trades over 2 year backtesting that I don't net much $. I watch this video and I see that I just need to combine them, that the latter is just my baseline. Boom! My need for this split test goes away. :)
VP, I just read about a young man [ hell, a sixteen year old kid ] that passed out flyers at a London train station to save 150 pounds sterling. He also watched UA-cam videos for five hours per day on " how " to trade the currency markets. I have a little bit more than 150 pounds. And after viewing several of your videos I now have my educational/instructional vehicle!
VP, I know we are nowhere near done learning from you. What I have learned from your videos has completely changed my outlook on the market and my trading. Thank you very much. You, Sir, are a gentleman and a scholar...there's not many of us left.
The "T-Line" strategy works really well for me. I have also set a 14 ATR on my charts to help place my 1st TP, then my 2nd TP is at the MA cross (3sma and my baseline = 8ema). It works really well on higher time frames. To find out more, simply search youtube/google, T-line trading strategy or 8ema
The baseline is very important. I have always had a steadfast rule to never go short when price is above my MA or never go long when price is below my MA....people thought I was crazy....
I don't know what to say... i'm religiously watching all your videos from the start, blog and podcast.. Holy cow... all i can say is, this is my fruit of my labor, watching all these videos, though more videos yet to watch. it brings me excitement. it's remind me when God said "If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me."" well, that's another story.. God Blessed You and your family VP...
At the time that I saw BASELINE in the algorithm, it was like the day that Italy won the soccer world cup in 2006 in Germany, BANG. What a jump ... I have to admit that I have always EMA on my chart but don t know about the majority of you mention in your video. Never ever will be enough THANK YOU VP.
I'll put this here since we had a little discussion on discord and I learned something. My baseline is the TMA/triMA, but you have to be careful you don't use a 'centered' TMA because those are shifted a few bars to the left to cut out lag. The gap in data at the right leading edge is then extrapolated using one method or another, which causes centered TMAs to repaint a few bars back from the hard right line. Just something to keep in mind. If you use a TMA, just make sure it's not centered.
Thank you so much VP!!! Forward testing with the other 5 algos elements for two weeks now with great results! This is perfect timing brotha! I knew I needed a trend direction confirmation, but getting excellent results without it. Can’t wait to put in the due-diligence on this. Love ya bro!!!!!! VP for life!!!! Bullet-proof Trader right here!!!!!!!
claps...claps...claps.... I like the flexibility and creativity to apply to your indicators. It feels good to know from you that there is always a better way to trade. Many times I have found myself asking questions like "how come I didn`t think of that?".. Lol. One of the best things you have done with this channel is that you have opened our minds more to learning and exploring our limitless options. Thumbs Up
I've been using Ichimoku Kinko Kyo (Japanese indicator) but never realised the 26-period Kijun-sen is the Baseline! Now all the pieces are coming together... Thanks VP!
Hi Jack, Saw VP’s vid today and although he does not use it as his baseline, he did for 6 months done time ago well done to you for finding it for yourself.
Well that’s escalated quickly. I have been playing around with something like this for a long time and wondering if I was on the right track I even called it my baseline or directional bias indicator . BOOM!!! VP drops the mic. I now have that extra motivation as my understanding of this channel and its way of building a system has just been confirmed. Thank you VP
Awesome stuff mate! I've been saying on the discord for ages that a "bias" will be the key, turns out to be the same same as you've just mentioned. Bloody legend!
honestly Vp I never thought that my search for indicators would turn into fun and somehow, I am very hapy that you confirmed that to us today ! your uniqe way of teaching with your sence of humour is the best! thank you
Wow... I figured out your baseline strategy on my own after 6 years ... & this UA-cam really adds to my conviction. I even use 1 candle stop loss on a small timeframe. Thank you so very much !!
Wow VP, what a great reveal that was! To think you gave us all the info we needed a long time ago. 1. Chart indicator (Baseline). 2. Zero line cross (1st or 2nd Confirmation indicator). 3. Two lines cross (1st or 2nd Confirmation indicator). Now lets get the money management and trading psychology nailed down!
The only thing that was missing in my algorithm is the ATR and the volatility indicator. I use my confirmation indicator as my exit indicator (mostly for trailing my stop) as well. The volatility indicator has helped me identify how much price will retrace once I have entered a trade. Actually, I have noticed that deep retracements after my entries are a result of low volumes in the market so now I will most likely not be taking these trades anymore. My algorithm has been able to give me a R:R of 1:n because I stay in a trade as long as possible and I am always sure how much I will lose in a trade without the ATR because I use my confirmation indicator with candlestick patterns. I can confirm that one would never blow an account your algorithm as long as their position sizing is correct. Thank you so much for the information that you have shared 😁
Thanks Man!!! The final piece makes soooo much sense. Stay tuned people I think this is going to get even better! V.P, The main reason why I stuck with you was because its all about personality. Your Personality. Meaning yours, mine, everyone out there has a unique personality. Therefore we must trade exactly the same way; our own unique way Thanks for the roadmap! Cheers
i cant imagine any one doin it better, not only this video , all of it the channel , the blog, the podcast.. VP kinda like Marvel ,, linking things in ways that u cant think of. its already changed my system like 3 months ago, every thing is fitting in place changes are slow but "astronomical".. i can see happy endings soon .. cant wait for whats coming next ,, always and for ever thank u VP
@@CosmicWizards2 You can watch videos in this channel , starting with "beginners" or "big banks" . both must be first 2 you watch. then - if you r committed - making your algorithm is surprisingly easy :)
Listened to this video two or three times so far. It has a close similarity to something that happened many years ago. Although spoken to me by my boss this can be implied from your videos. Finished college and went to do an apprenticeship. During the apprenticeship working closely with my boss there was a critical life changing thing discovered VP your videos and teaching contain the essence of this. Anyone who tries to think, do and use exactly the same tools as you will only ever be at best A CARBON COPY. As we all know carbon copies are never as good as the original. Those who take the training and learn to develop their own methods may one day discover something that will set them apart even amongst the very best.
I am so happy to be here, since two weeks ago I have binged everything. Blogs, podcast and videos. and I am working everyday. I look forward to filling out the Testimonial Form. Cheers VP
Best Forex channel on UA-cam. Very grateful of the way you made the viewer have to actually put in the effort to learn. I'm very excited to get my algorithm completed.
Great video - turns out I've been using a somewhat unique "baseline" indicator from the start. I didn't know it was so important as to be a part of your algorithm. I kinda felt like it was too simplistic being just a moving average and an adjusted form of price. When I shared it people weren't too impressed, but it worked well nonetheless so I kept it around. Nice to feel a bit vindicated for keeping it around. Now I know to give it as much attention as all of the other pieces.
Here's an idea I've yet to test ... make your SMA period the same as the ATR. So at the beginning of any week set SMA to same as the previous weeks ATR (ie. 5 days). That might give us important hi/lo swings easily seen by price crossing a matching SMA. I'll check this idea out over the weekend.
hours and hours of backtesting really gives yourself that validation and confidence in your own system... I think its a vital part in building the strength of your psychology. If you just go with someone else's work or just use those auto-backtesting software, your brain never really goes through all that wear and tear which makes you susceptible to changing and changing your system as you haven't built your own confidence in it or you could just keep testing another indicator and another indicator in a software and it never ends... but when you've put in that labor and its going to take a lot of time to do more... the ground under your psychology is is really becoming solid... just a thought
The McGinley Dynamic is a little-known yet highly reliable indicator, it was specifically created to minimize false signals that the moving averages may give.
Lucky to have all the pieces in the system already but I still watched all the videos that VP told us. It's worth it tho. I learned a lot. Im new and still working on finding best indicator possible. So far this channel is the best thing happened to me when we talked about forex trading. For you guys trying to learn just follow what VP told you to watch. Learn slow and let's get it! Thank you VP!
VP, please, continue making videos about whatever topic you please. You have a gift for it! Great reveal, the whole journey has been very well put together. You say your voice is annoying although it actually sounds like what I call the 'perfect narrator voice', if you have watched a lot of docu type videos on youtube you will know exactly what I mean. Oh and the forex content is ok too and teaching me a lot ;)
Crosses are wonderful and work very well I must admit! You just need to have an exit plan and also would advise to start with a lower timeframe. You can even start with the 1min. and what you'll notice, is that you can start to work yourself up to higher frames when seeing fit meaning, if you start with 1min and it's heading up(LONG) nice, you then observe the 3min. If you see 3min cross, now you can decide to stick with 3min and so on & so forth! You cannot judge Moving Averages by observing the Daily chart, obviously you'll be in late therefore, you would need to check and wait for yet, another opportunity on a lower frame....😎
I have been using a baseline for months already not knowing that this would be the final piece. I feel great seeing this video to confirm that my trading mentality is VP approved!
2 роки тому
oh god! this one is the best plot twist that i've ever seen.. nice job VP.. it's just like "i see dead pips.."
Been using an SMA all along for directional momentum, never saw the VP Baseline way, Thanks VP. Now my SMA is ligit, and surprise, there is, apparently, still more to come on that... And you freely share this knowledge with us, now the complete Algo. no warning, just bam. there it is. You have made my trading Fun. Two surprises in one video.
If you scrutinize the BOLLINGER BAND , the middle band is a 20 SMA ( 3 pixels ) that could be a BASE LINE. Then if an 8 EMA ( Thin Blue Line = 2 pixels ) make a Crossover near the PRICE , these are Clear Signals for Entry supported by a Super Engulfing Candle & Signal for Exit when crossover break thru the Price. Also there are the GOLDEN CROSS & DEATH CROSS which are the 50 EMA & 200 EMA crossover as BASE LINE for the start of a major trend in the BIG PICTURE. UPTREND when 50 EMA rising above 200 EMA ( Golden Cross ) wait to BUY and DOWNTREND when 50 EMA falling below 200 EMA ( Death Cross ) , wait to SELL
Mr. VP, I started with you about 2 maybe 3years ago! and during my quest I found myself consistently trying to make my system better!. I have tons of notebooks of backtesting and different algo's.. I would be 85% with on Pair and then 64% with another pair,( i know you have a video on that) I have changed so much that I went too far and this is my 2 month losing and well i haven't lost in one month for a while let alone 2!! so i started watching your video's again lol, I didn't notice but i went away from our trading ways. The final straw was when I was watching a fib youtube video LOL. its good to see that you are still around. As soon as I get back to the US i will looking for a firm.. (hopefully)
That algorithm piece reveal hyped me up😂. Seriously though, thanks for everything you do, I'm learning so much in such a short amount of time. Only a couple months ago I was still trading reversals on the 5 minute chart with a HA-RSI indicator and now I wouldn't dare to do such a thing.
Cant find a better guru to learn. Very clear and precise explanations. This is the first time watching moving average being explained so clearly. I need to watch this over and over again till I am totally clear about this video before moving ahead with other videos on the subject posted by you, but to be really honest guys even with a good indicator you can still make a bad trade but in additional of a strategy like the Ash Strategy by aleksandrov you can be a more profitable trader with moving average..Thanks for the fabulous job thanks and regards.
I just tested 2 MAs (at the same time) on GBPCHF. Together they actually prevent me from getting into bad trades.There are sometimes where it gets me into bad trades but I would say it's rare, and I doubt there's a baseline or two that work together that prevent you from taking a bad trade 100% of the time. I know you said to find a unique baseline, what if we used 2 instead? But not entering when they cross, but entering when price crosses both. Maybe it's just for that pair, but I will tell you, out of 20-30 trades in the past year, only 10 were bad. Even less if you wait until price crosses and closes the two baselines. You might be missing some trades, but you're gaining more pips overall because you're not in losing trades.I will deff keep looking for more, and keep backtesting and forward testing, it's actually wicked fun specially when you see results. I wouldn't feel 100% right making money if I didn't earn it. :P I'm in a group chat where all they do is talk about support and resistance and I try to feed them little by little a new way of trading, I don't give them everything but they won't budge. They're dead set on using the Dirty Dozen on a consistent basis. I feel so bad for them. :( As always VP, you're the man, thank you. BANG!!! GET ITTTT!
I can not believe this is the final piece! I am so chuffed with myself right now! I still have a lot of work to do, but you have just confirmed my strategy. Cannot wait for the next video on this so I can learn more and try to perfect it! But until then "BANG....GET IT" 😂🤣😂 So funny almost fell off my chair! Cheers V.P👍
Hi VP, I am from the Philippines and been following and watching all your videos from start to present. Me and my brother enrolled ourselves to a very expensive ( so damn expensive!) trading school and for a year now have been incurring losses using what we've been taught in school. As of now no concrete results yet because we are still in the process of forming our own algorithm but you surely improve our way of trading a lot.
I found this channel by searching on 'Heiken-Ashi' - and I have seen this concept explained (not so well as VP explains it) in combination with HA Ind twice before - I liked them, saved the vids, but always felt that they were incomplete as methods, just a good idea...and voilá!, patience pays off...
since i started to even use indicators (due to VP) my system has become very strict and cool for me is incredible how a trade system can change in a period of idk, 4 weeks (?) with the right person everything is possible now thanks bro! im supressing my losses with my volume indicator, but as you said : we need to improve always, the holygrail its still out there.
Every other channels want us to copy them, and be rich in 15 minutes! Lol! Only VP wants us to improve our own and earn our own trading identity. ♥️ VP
Although I had no idea about the 2nd item of the algorithm, I was using the VWAP indicator in a similar way and it was also working well. Even so, this video opens my mind in order to find a baseline that can possibly work better. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Even though I'm not forex trader - I'm applying it in indices futures in Brazil -, It has considerably improved my performance.
thank you VP! being your student/follower for a few months I am way up ahead from those traders who trade 15 min chart 30 mins charts. I think I have found the indicators like I am looking into a looking glass It tells me the future. and I was able to catch the breakouts. all of my trades are positive. omg this is so amazing!
Haha. I don't know how much new stuff I've learmed..more confirmations really.. But just wanted to say you crack me up and I love you as a human. I would watch all of these just because I love forex and The way you talk is totally me and makes these videos great to listen to. Like.. Bs over a beer perfect. Haha
Man you are a Genius and changing my life immeditialy in a positive way i Never Could think you enough for...what a Great man with a generous Heart...you Are my new Hero Bro!!!!!
VP Best forex education. Feel sorry for the traders that haven’t seen your content they don’t know what there missing. I started trading the same as everyone else but have totally change my strategy from watching all your videos and had to completely forget all the old rubbish I learnt. Takes all the guess work out and only trade if my system tell me so. 👌
My exit indicator right now is waking up for the day..just kidding. Took two trades yesterday and woke up to winning 90 pips on the GBP/JPY and EUR/USD woohoo. 12.8 percent return so far in my demo account for the month. Started with $5000 demo April 1 and am up to $5642.72. All thanks to you VP!
I rewatched the video especially the beginning part about a moving average being used as an exit and that makes me even more happy that i use the hull moving average for my exit indicator :) 9-14 period is the best way since is a fast one.
I have been using an MA in my process, but you can bet your sweet one, I’m moving on to look for/or modify something even better! Thanks VP for your wisdom!!
This is so awesome, I was actually using an indicator for this very thing. I didn't have a cool name like a "baseline" for it though, thought I was deviating from the algo actually, but it just worked a bit better with it. Can't wait for next weeks video! The learning keeps coming, bring it! Thanks, VP!
You got me there, VP! Love your sneaky reveal, it's so unexpected. Now I'm so eager for the next 3 Thursdays to arrive! I had an MA as a baseline but I removed it after following your methodology cos I thought it doesn't fit in. Now I'm glad I at least got the concept right before.
- FUN FACT- For MT5 users……….. If you have some on chart indicators on your list and you want to convert them into an oscillator indicator. Here is what you do……1st) Open up any indicator that is already an oscillator…..2nd) Open the on chart indicator from your navigator and drag it to the same oscillator indicator that is at the bottom main price chart screen…….3rd) Once you posted the on chart indicator to the oscillator, then right click the indicator options and delete the current oscillator indicator from the bottom box and that’s it. I just improved my system by taking one of my moving crossovers on-chart indicators and applying to my system and found something awesome. Hope that helps someone!
Something you might want to look into using is Joe Dinapoli's 3x3 SMA. The 3x3 SMA is a 3 period daily simple moving average displaced 3 periods (days) into the future. This is a leading confirmation indicator and is based on the daily close being above the 3x3 SMA for long trades and the close below the 3x3 SMA for short trades. Joe did extensive research into using moving averages and found the 3x3 SMA to be his best confirmation indicator. You can google "Joe Dinapoli 3x3" and find lots of information on this moving average confirmation indicator. This is an excellent 2nd confirmation indicator. I have one that is way better because it's faster but that's for my eyes only. In MT4 you can create the 3x3 by opening the Moving Average dialog and entering Periods: 3 and Shift: 3. Experiment by trying 3x3 EMA, Smooth, WMA and you can do the same for like Hull MA, etc. Test it out, you'll be glad you did and you can even use it as a baseline to find one better, like I did. Hope this helps someone!
I was wondering rest of the list was not quite "entry" signal so that any trend change indicator like derivatives of MA could be the one.... and here we go! Thank you! Looking forward to the next few videos.
Amazing. Thank you for all of your information and sharing your algo free of charge. I've always used the MA to wait for price to break above and bounce off it for confirmation but that's starting to seem like an intraday mindset. Trading the daily chart, a candle closing above really is all there needs to be for a nice confirmation. I trade stocks/ETFs right now, but am studying up all your material and will demo FX. Your approach really helps me in the stock market too. With ETFs especially there are nice trends to follow.
Oh and when VP mentions the names of the moving averages here are some pretty darn awesome ones. 1st is the kaufmans moving average(KAMA). Second is the Hull moving average(HMA), and the 3rd is the Jurik Moving Average(JMA). Oh and Jurik HMA(Its a hull moving average with an additional jurik calculation, a custom indicator)
Keep it quiet. A lot of people cheat and look in the comments first. If I see any comments with time stamps, I'm deleting them! ;-)
I don't understand this comment! What do you mean? Thanks.
You will.
Ahh...just read your pinned message. My comment should be alright though.🤞
Omg. I almost missed it . Lol
My G. Let's make some money.
I love Forex so I've watched 1000's of Forex videos here on UA-cam and elsewhere. VP I have to say, your stuff is rare and unique as a diamond. You are a real blessing to the Forex community and those willing to put in the work. Thanks VP!
Yes!! For anyone who just stumbled on this channel, I implore you on behalf of your future trading accounts to go to the first videos and watch them in order. I promise you at first you will have an 'a-ha' moment, then you will test a bunch of indicators that are garbage...but then you will have mined gold! But you do need to start at the beginning, there is a method to the madness. In the end you will be free from such things as trying to decipher chart patterns and where to to draw fib lines, and you will be left with a rule based system that you have personally checked and double checked. VP's method is akin to him teaching you how to build a car vs. teaching you how to drive 'someones' car. You will know where every bolt goes and why! Pure gold!
This was way better than any GOT episode people are talkin about
The way VP revealed the final indicator was too funny 😂😂 damn near had a heart attack when he did.
😁😁Me too bro. I am still shook
Same lol
Same here! I spit my morning tea and had to rewind a bit because of laughing. Thanks, VP
me too! laying it out like that. i had a hunch at 6am while i was listen that he was getting to the final key during the vid then bam!
I didnt expect it either😂😂
The best, strongest statement! its like you are sitting in a class and everything goes quiet and smooth, you listen, you take notes, nothing stays in a head, just wind blows... and all of a sudden, out of the blue, the lecturer shakes the whole class verbally, and in a split second you put all the stuff in your head, and feel energized (sort of like when you get the wings when you drink red bull), and you feel thirst for more knowledge. Thanks VP!
Dude thanks so much man. I love what you say about us being able to say "this is the fruits of my labor, this is what I created" vs. you telling us what your specific baseline that you use is. You give us a framework, and we get to test and fill it in.
I'm still working through babypips and then will be able to dive deeply into your videos, but I still watch around 1 of your videos per day even as I'm moving through babypips. Getting pumped for my journey! Cheers
Omg I literally spilled my drink everywhere when he revealed the indicator, I was shook lmao
Most aggressive reveal yet.
I have struggled with this issue for so long close to 2 years (here and there)....
but I'm finally out of the trap now by simply choosing an efficient one. Pretty Neat & Logical !!!!
I haven't shared this trick, let alone the MA setting. Totally with VP for "Keep it to yourself" Approach
For those who can digest this, please be cautious that different FX pairs do react to different MA settings go scrap, time to time due to various reasons of news& events.
Imagine subscribing to No Nonsense Forex and not clicking the notification button.
Smh. Y'all playing.
I'm so glad I found this channel. VP speaks pretty right into your face but he gets his points effectively across!
Revisiting your older videos, and just for fun, I put a fast period setting on a MA on the chart and it actually performed better than all the exit indicators I tested rarely hitting my stop loss and not taking me out while the price is still trending. Thanks a lot, VP!!
I came on late this time because of duty, but following VP is infectious, and I couldn't sleep without going through his rich content delivered today.

I love it because it takes me in on time and takes care of the colour change that's known with Heikin A. It doesn't repaint. In combination with the VPT (which I tweaked), they combine with one other confirmation Indi, then Volume Indi to give me a canary song trading. I'm no more scared of entering trades when my algo gives me a shout out. I looked for dead markets of almost ranging currency pairs to test since February, so I know whenever I lose, it is minimal and rare. The lose I remember was a NZD flash news that made NZDJPY to drop by over 125 pips. Thanks VP for tweaking my mindset from PA to proven Indies. I believe I've 3 indi combinations forming like 3 Algos now that I can use to earn. So I'll keep practicing until I get enough results to trade for prop firm.
Today I was struggling with patience, and I went back to Trading Phycology veds. And I am much better after watching them ☺... Thank you VP
Woooooowwwwww.....am in tears...after devouring 44 videos since last week Thursday....woooooowwww....finito
Thank you VP. I have been doing split forward testing. On one hand is a C1 that backtests lots of trades and produces a large net return over 2 years, but low ROI. On the other hand is the C1 that has a high ROI, but produces few trades over 2 year backtesting that I don't net much $. I watch this video and I see that I just need to combine them, that the latter is just my baseline. Boom! My need for this split test goes away. :)
VP, I just read about a young man [ hell, a sixteen year old kid ] that passed out flyers at a London train station to save 150 pounds sterling. He also watched UA-cam videos for five hours per day on " how " to trade the currency markets. I have a little bit more than 150 pounds. And after viewing several of your videos I now have my educational/instructional vehicle!
VP, I know we are nowhere near done learning from you. What I have learned from your videos has completely changed my outlook on the market and my trading. Thank you very much. You, Sir, are a gentleman and a scholar...there's not many of us left.
The "T-Line" strategy works really well for me. I have also set a 14 ATR on my charts to help place my 1st TP, then my 2nd TP is at the MA cross (3sma and my baseline = 8ema). It works really well on higher time frames.
To find out more, simply search youtube/google, T-line trading strategy or 8ema
This made me go look at the t strategy what’s your email or telegram ?? I have a couple of questions about it.
The baseline is very important. I have always had a steadfast rule to never go short when price is above my MA or never go long when price is below my MA....people thought I was crazy....
You're still crazy.....but you were "on the gold" as they say.
Finally, I have the last piece of the Infinity Stones in my system and with one snap of my finger I will make 90% of my bad trades Disappear!
I am inevitable!
This comment right here deserves more comments
I don't know what to say... i'm religiously watching all your videos from the start, blog and podcast.. Holy cow... all i can say is, this is my fruit of my labor, watching all these videos, though more videos yet to watch. it brings me excitement. it's remind me when God said "If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me."" well, that's another story.. God Blessed You and your family VP...
At the time that I saw BASELINE in the algorithm, it was like the day that Italy won the soccer world cup in 2006 in Germany, BANG. What a jump ...
I have to admit that I have always EMA on my chart but don t know about the majority of you mention in your video.
Never ever will be enough THANK YOU VP.
For me like in 2018...a french guy ;))
I'll put this here since we had a little discussion on discord and I learned something. My baseline is the TMA/triMA, but you have to be careful you don't use a 'centered' TMA because those are shifted a few bars to the left to cut out lag. The gap in data at the right leading edge is then extrapolated using one method or another, which causes centered TMAs to repaint a few bars back from the hard right line. Just something to keep in mind. If you use a TMA, just make sure it's not centered.
Almost i am crying seeing the algorithm completed :) Thanks VP for your guidance
"bang get it" gave me chills. One single tear as well 😂
The concept of a baseline is BRILLIANT!!! I've seen ppl do this before but now I understand why and the role it plays
Thank you so much VP!!! Forward testing with the other 5 algos elements for two weeks now with great results! This is perfect timing brotha! I knew I needed a trend direction confirmation, but getting excellent results without it. Can’t wait to put in the due-diligence on this. Love ya bro!!!!!! VP for life!!!! Bullet-proof Trader right here!!!!!!!
claps...claps...claps.... I like the flexibility and creativity to apply to your indicators. It feels good to know from you that there is always a better way to trade. Many times I have found myself asking questions like "how come I didn`t think of that?".. Lol. One of the best things you have done with this channel is that you have opened our minds more to learning and exploring our limitless options. Thumbs Up
I've been using Ichimoku Kinko Kyo (Japanese indicator) but never realised the 26-period Kijun-sen is the Baseline! Now all the pieces are coming together... Thanks VP!
Hi Jack,
Saw VP’s vid today and although he does not use it as his baseline, he did for 6 months done time ago well done to you for finding it for yourself.
Well that’s escalated quickly. I have been playing around with something like this for a long time and wondering if I was on the right track I even called it my baseline or directional bias indicator . BOOM!!! VP drops the mic. I now have that extra motivation as my understanding of this channel and its way of building a system has just been confirmed. Thank you VP
Many thanks VP. This sure is the One Channel on Earth to understand and succeed in Forex trading as a holistic educational and business approach.
Awesome stuff mate! I've been saying on the discord for ages that a "bias" will be the key, turns out to be the same same as you've just mentioned. Bloody legend!
honestly Vp I never thought that my search for indicators would turn into fun and somehow, I am very hapy that you confirmed that to us today ! your uniqe way of teaching with your sence of humour is the best! thank you
Wow... I figured out your baseline strategy on my own after 6 years ... & this UA-cam really adds to my conviction. I even use 1 candle stop loss on a small timeframe. Thank you so very much !!
Wow VP, what a great reveal that was! To think you gave us all the info we needed a long time ago.
1. Chart indicator (Baseline).
2. Zero line cross (1st or 2nd Confirmation indicator).
3. Two lines cross (1st or 2nd Confirmation indicator).
Now lets get the money management and trading psychology nailed down!
Baseline doesn't have to be a chart indicator, right?
@@gekkegerrit5245 can you show us an example of a non chart baseline?
The only thing that was missing in my algorithm is the ATR and the volatility indicator. I use my confirmation indicator as my exit indicator (mostly for trailing my stop) as well. The volatility indicator has helped me identify how much price will retrace once I have entered a trade. Actually, I have noticed that deep retracements after my entries are a result of low volumes in the market so now I will most likely not be taking these trades anymore. My algorithm has been able to give me a R:R of 1:n because I stay in a trade as long as possible and I am always sure how much I will lose in a trade without the ATR because I use my confirmation indicator with candlestick patterns. I can confirm that one would never blow an account your algorithm as long as their position sizing is correct. Thank you so much for the information that you have shared 😁
Thanks Man!!!
The final piece makes soooo much sense.
Stay tuned people I think this is going to get even better!
V.P, The main reason why I stuck with you was because its all about personality. Your Personality. Meaning yours, mine, everyone out there has a unique personality. Therefore we must trade exactly the same way; our own unique way
Thanks for the roadmap!
Cheers
i cant imagine any one doin it better, not only this video , all of it the channel , the blog, the podcast.. VP kinda like Marvel ,, linking things in ways that u cant think of.
its already changed my system like 3 months ago, every thing is fitting in place changes are slow but "astronomical"..
i can see happy endings soon ..
cant wait for whats coming next ,, always and for ever thank u VP
onkar_sanghera@hotmail.com can u help me to link?
@@CosmicWizards2 You can watch videos in this channel , starting with "beginners" or "big banks" . both must be first 2 you watch. then - if you r committed - making your algorithm is surprisingly easy :)
Reading the blogs, listening to the Podcasts, watching your videos. Thank you!!
Listened to this video two or three times so far. It has a close similarity to something that happened many years ago. Although spoken to me by my boss this can be implied from your videos. Finished college and went to do an apprenticeship. During the apprenticeship working closely with my boss there was a critical life changing thing discovered
VP your videos and teaching contain the essence of this. Anyone who tries to think, do and use exactly the same tools as you will only ever be at best A CARBON COPY. As we all know carbon copies are never as good as the original.
Those who take the training and learn to develop their own methods may one day discover something that will set them apart even amongst the very best.
Your advice still works today! Just tested an algorithm built on your videos for the ES futures. Amazing how it all comes together to work!
Whenever I am in a bad mood I open this video @ 16:13 and my day gets much better.
Thank you VP
I am so happy to be here, since two weeks ago I have binged everything. Blogs, podcast and videos. and I am working everyday. I look forward to filling out the Testimonial Form. Cheers VP
Best Forex channel on UA-cam. Very grateful of the way you made the viewer have to actually put in the effort to learn. I'm very excited to get my algorithm completed.
BROOO WTF, I WAS NOT EXPECTING THIS, YOU SCARED THE SHIT OUT OF ME. I WOULD NEVER HAVE SEEN THIS COMING. THANK YOU, MUCH LOVE FROM NEW YORK CITY!!!!!!
Great video - turns out I've been using a somewhat unique "baseline" indicator from the start. I didn't know it was so important as to be a part of your algorithm. I kinda felt like it was too simplistic being just a moving average and an adjusted form of price. When I shared it people weren't too impressed, but it worked well nonetheless so I kept it around. Nice to feel a bit vindicated for keeping it around. Now I know to give it as much attention as all of the other pieces.
What do you mean by 'adjusted form of price' ?
Simple is the best. Doesn't mean it's easy but it gets that way with practice.
RIP to all wandering through your videos and not committing to watch them from start to finish. Thank you VP
Here's an idea I've yet to test ... make your SMA period the same as the ATR. So at the beginning of any week set SMA to same as the previous weeks ATR (ie. 5 days). That might give us important hi/lo swings easily seen by price crossing a matching SMA. I'll check this idea out over the weekend.
Any updates sir?
hours and hours of backtesting really gives yourself that validation and confidence in your own system... I think its a vital part in building the strength of your psychology. If you just go with someone else's work or just use those auto-backtesting software, your brain never really goes through all that wear and tear which makes you susceptible to changing and changing your system as you haven't built your own confidence in it or you could just keep testing another indicator and another indicator in a software and it never ends... but when you've put in that labor and its going to take a lot of time to do more... the ground under your psychology is is really becoming solid... just a thought
You're definitely getting it.
@@NoNonsenseForex means a lot coming from you 🙏
First time from Negative to Positive... Thank You Mr V.P.
The McGinley Dynamic is a little-known yet highly reliable indicator, it was specifically created to minimize false signals that the moving averages may give.
Lucky to have all the pieces in the system already but I still watched all the videos that VP told us. It's worth it tho. I learned a lot. Im new and still working on finding best indicator possible. So far this channel is the best thing happened to me when we talked about forex trading. For you guys trying to learn just follow what VP told you to watch. Learn slow and let's get it! Thank you VP!
VP, please, continue making videos about whatever topic you please. You have a gift for it! Great reveal, the whole journey has been very well put together. You say your voice is annoying although it actually sounds like what I call the 'perfect narrator voice', if you have watched a lot of docu type videos on youtube you will know exactly what I mean.
Oh and the forex content is ok too and teaching me a lot ;)
I decided to watch all videos on your channel since I watched the first video, that’s the kind of impact you have. Blessings
Coming back to VP’s videos feels like a graduate student visiting his old school. Respect for this man.
Crosses are wonderful and work very well I must admit! You just need to have an exit plan and also would advise to start with a lower timeframe. You can even start with the 1min. and what you'll notice, is that you can start to work yourself up to higher frames when seeing fit meaning, if you start with 1min and it's heading up(LONG) nice, you then observe the 3min. If you see 3min cross, now you can decide to stick with 3min and so on & so forth!
You cannot judge Moving Averages by observing the Daily chart, obviously you'll be in late therefore, you would need to check and wait for yet, another opportunity on a lower frame....😎
I have been using a baseline for months already not knowing that this would be the final piece. I feel great seeing this video to confirm that my trading mentality is VP approved!
oh god! this one is the best plot twist that i've ever seen.. nice job VP.. it's just like "i see dead pips.."
Been using an SMA all along for directional momentum, never saw the VP Baseline way, Thanks VP. Now my SMA is ligit, and surprise, there is, apparently, still more to come on that... And you freely share this knowledge with us, now the complete Algo. no warning, just bam. there it is. You have made my trading Fun. Two surprises in one video.
If you scrutinize the BOLLINGER BAND , the middle band is a 20 SMA ( 3 pixels ) that could be a BASE LINE. Then if an 8 EMA ( Thin Blue Line = 2 pixels ) make a Crossover near the PRICE , these are Clear Signals for Entry supported by a Super Engulfing Candle & Signal for Exit when crossover break thru the Price.
Also there are the GOLDEN CROSS & DEATH CROSS which are the 50 EMA & 200 EMA crossover as BASE LINE for the start of a major trend in the BIG PICTURE. UPTREND when 50 EMA rising above 200 EMA ( Golden Cross ) wait to BUY and DOWNTREND when 50 EMA falling below 200 EMA ( Death Cross ) , wait to SELL
Mr. VP, I started with you about 2 maybe 3years ago! and during my quest I found myself consistently trying to make my system better!. I have tons of notebooks of backtesting and different algo's.. I would be 85% with on Pair and then 64% with another pair,( i know you have a video on that) I have changed so much that I went too far and this is my 2 month losing and well i haven't lost in one month for a while let alone 2!! so i started watching your video's again lol, I didn't notice but i went away from our trading ways. The final straw was when I was watching a fib youtube video LOL. its good to see that you are still around. As soon as I get back to the US i will looking for a firm.. (hopefully)
love love love this video unfortunately a bit behind everyone starting testing phase. And GO! VP you are the man
That algorithm piece reveal hyped me up😂. Seriously though, thanks for everything you do, I'm learning so much in such a short amount of time. Only a couple months ago I was still trading reversals on the 5 minute chart with a HA-RSI indicator and now I wouldn't dare to do such a thing.
Cant find a better guru to learn. Very clear and precise explanations. This is the first time watching moving average being explained so clearly. I need to watch this over and over again till I am totally clear about this video before moving ahead with other videos on the subject posted by you, but to be really honest guys even with a good indicator you can still make a bad trade but in additional of a strategy like the Ash Strategy by aleksandrov you can be a more profitable trader with moving average..Thanks for the fabulous job thanks and regards.
I feel so lucky i came across your channel ,simple straight forward and comprehensive, thank you.
I just tested 2 MAs (at the same time) on GBPCHF. Together they actually prevent me from getting into bad trades.There are sometimes where it gets me into bad trades but I would say it's rare, and I doubt there's a baseline or two that work together that prevent you from taking a bad trade 100% of the time. I know you said to find a unique baseline, what if we used 2 instead? But not entering when they cross, but entering when price crosses both. Maybe it's just for that pair, but I will tell you, out of 20-30 trades in the past year, only 10 were bad. Even less if you wait until price crosses and closes the two baselines. You might be missing some trades, but you're gaining more pips overall because you're not in losing trades.I will deff keep looking for more, and keep backtesting and forward testing, it's actually wicked fun specially when you see results. I wouldn't feel 100% right making money if I didn't earn it. :P
I'm in a group chat where all they do is talk about support and resistance and I try to feed them little by little a new way of trading, I don't give them everything but they won't budge. They're dead set on using the Dirty Dozen on a consistent basis. I feel so bad for them. :(
As always VP, you're the man, thank you.
BANG!!! GET ITTTT!
Thats a great idea bro, how did it work out for you by now. Wishing you luck and success :)
I can not believe this is the final piece! I am so chuffed with myself right now! I still have a lot of work to do, but you have just confirmed my strategy. Cannot wait for the next video on this so I can learn more and try to perfect it! But until then "BANG....GET IT" 😂🤣😂 So funny almost fell off my chair! Cheers V.P👍
You're so addictive,starting watching your videos yesterday. Been glued to my phone ever since
This channel is GOLD! So thankful to have a mentor like VP. 🙏🏼
And just like that VP gave everyone the opportunity to build wealth. All they have to do is put in the work. Bravo, Sir!
Hi VP, I am from the Philippines and been following and watching all your videos from start to present. Me and my brother enrolled ourselves to a very expensive ( so damn expensive!) trading school and for a year now have been incurring losses using what we've been taught in school. As of now no concrete results yet because we are still in the process of forming our own algorithm but you surely improve our way of trading a lot.
I found this channel by searching on 'Heiken-Ashi' - and I have seen this concept explained (not so well as VP explains it) in combination with HA Ind twice before - I liked them, saved the vids, but always felt that they were incomplete as methods, just a good idea...and voilá!, patience pays off...
since i started to even use indicators (due to VP) my system has become very strict and cool for me
is incredible how a trade system can change in a period of idk, 4 weeks (?) with the right person everything is possible now
thanks bro! im supressing my losses with my volume indicator, but as you said : we need to improve always, the holygrail its still out there.
That confidence is coming back, isn't it?
@@NoNonsenseForex yeah, it feels good to know what im doing is working and day by day every piece is falling right into the perfect place 🍻
Every other channels want us to copy them, and be rich in 15 minutes! Lol! Only VP wants us to improve our own and earn our own trading identity. ♥️ VP
... And get rich in four years. Now, that's what I call REAL trading. :)
Although I had no idea about the 2nd item of the algorithm, I was using the VWAP indicator in a similar way and it was also working well. Even so, this video opens my mind in order to find a baseline that can possibly work better.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Even though I'm not forex trader - I'm applying it in indices futures in Brazil -, It has considerably improved my performance.
thank you VP! being your student/follower for a few months I am way up ahead from those traders who trade 15 min chart 30 mins charts. I think I have found the indicators like I am looking into a looking glass It tells me the future. and I was able to catch the breakouts. all of my trades are positive. omg this is so amazing!

VP Best forex education. Feel sorry for the traders that haven’t seen your content they don’t know what there missing. I started trading the same as everyone else but have totally change my strategy from watching all your videos and had to completely forget all the old rubbish I learnt. Takes all the guess work out and only trade if my system tell me so. 👌
I hate and love you at the same time. Just an amazing reveal
VP your my "Rich Dad"...Thanks Rafiki
Hello,fellow Kenyan,nice to know we follow this great channel.
well me too lol
Very true kitheka

I am from Ghana. Once I get rich, I will be glad to meet my mentor VP
Yeah... Trend lines does feel like a crime to use now 😁 Been long since I used rubbish like that thanks to VP 👊
...Never been a fan of MA lol
Back testing the shit out of the algo you helped me build.. and so far bro.. i owe you a drink. keep up the great content sir.
That is an unexpected and aggressive reveal man. very useful VP. thanks
My exit indicator right now is waking up for the day..just kidding. Took two trades yesterday and woke up to winning 90 pips on the GBP/JPY and EUR/USD woohoo. 12.8 percent return so far in my demo account for the month. Started with $5000 demo April 1 and am up to $5642.72. All thanks to you VP!
Yay cant wait!
I definitely fell out my chair! Thanks VP for everything!!!
I rewatched the video especially the beginning part about a moving average being used as an exit and that makes me even more happy that i use the hull moving average for my exit indicator :) 9-14 period is the best way since is a fast one.
Im a Forex guy. Love your video. I also trade Futures Options. You are on point. I havent found the cross over to ever work. Great job.
I have been using an MA in my process, but you can bet your sweet one, I’m moving on to look for/or modify something even better! Thanks VP for your wisdom!!
This is so awesome, I was actually using an indicator for this very thing. I didn't have a cool name like a "baseline" for it though, thought I was deviating from the algo actually, but it just worked a bit better with it. Can't wait for next weeks video! The learning keeps coming, bring it! Thanks, VP!
So happy that i watch this video. Watching it the second time and went into 2 trades and got good profit. I will be studying the rest of your video
Pls which Is the baseline I don’t seem to understand. Pls tell
You got me there, VP! Love your sneaky reveal, it's so unexpected. Now I'm so eager for the next 3 Thursdays to arrive! I had an MA as a baseline but I removed it after following your methodology cos I thought it doesn't fit in. Now I'm glad I at least got the concept right before.
- FUN FACT- For MT5 users………..
If you have some on chart indicators on your list and you want to convert them into an oscillator indicator. Here is what you do……1st) Open up any indicator that is already an oscillator…..2nd) Open the on chart indicator from your navigator and drag it to the same oscillator indicator that is at the bottom main price chart screen…….3rd) Once you posted the on chart indicator to the oscillator, then right click the indicator options and delete the current oscillator indicator from the bottom box and that’s it. I just improved my system by taking one of my moving crossovers on-chart indicators and applying to my system and found something awesome. Hope that helps someone!
Something you might want to look into using is Joe Dinapoli's 3x3 SMA. The 3x3 SMA is a 3 period daily simple moving average displaced 3 periods (days) into the future. This is a leading confirmation indicator and is based on the daily close being above the 3x3 SMA for long trades and the close below the 3x3 SMA for short trades. Joe did extensive research into using moving averages and found the 3x3 SMA to be his best confirmation indicator. You can google "Joe Dinapoli 3x3" and find lots of information on this moving average confirmation indicator. This is an excellent 2nd confirmation indicator. I have one that is way better because it's faster but that's for my eyes only. In MT4 you can create the 3x3 by opening the Moving Average dialog and entering Periods: 3 and Shift: 3. Experiment by trying 3x3 EMA, Smooth, WMA and you can do the same for like Hull MA, etc. Test it out, you'll be glad you did and you can even use it as a baseline to find one better, like I did. Hope this helps someone!
Great appreciate the share
I was wondering rest of the list was not quite "entry" signal so that any trend change indicator like derivatives of MA could be the one.... and here we go! Thank you! Looking forward to the next few videos.
Amazing. Thank you for all of your information and sharing your algo free of charge. I've always used the MA to wait for price to break above and bounce off it for confirmation but that's starting to seem like an intraday mindset. Trading the daily chart, a candle closing above really is all there needs to be for a nice confirmation. I trade stocks/ETFs right now, but am studying up all your material and will demo FX. Your approach really helps me in the stock market too. With ETFs especially there are nice trends to follow.
Oh and when VP mentions the names of the moving averages here are some pretty darn awesome ones. 1st is the kaufmans moving average(KAMA). Second is the Hull moving average(HMA), and the 3rd is the Jurik Moving Average(JMA). Oh and Jurik HMA(Its a hull moving average with an additional jurik calculation, a custom indicator)
Kaufman is the best. 🤫 I am glad someone mentions it.
thank you for everything. honestly changed the way i think. when i make it, ill make sure you know about it. big respect!
