The trader explains the setup, entry criteria, and demonstrates live trades, emphasizing the importance of combined signals and candle confirmation. The content is educational and not financial advice.

### Key Points

- **Indicator Setup** [00:30] — Set MACD with periods 5, 19, 25 and Vortex with period 9. Use 1-minute Japanese candles.
- **Currency Pair Selection** [01:17] — Choose less aggressive currency pairs for better results.
- **Combined Signal Rule** [04:02] — Wait for both MACD and Vortex to give a combined signal; otherwise, do not enter.
- **Candle Confirmation** [05:01] — Wait for a green candle to start as final confirmation before opening a position.
- **Trend Context** [02:57] — A strong downtrend can strengthen the MACD signal even if the histogram is not aligned.

## Transcript

Hello Traders. I would like to share with you my&nbsp; experience and techniques which I have developed&nbsp;&nbsp; through many experiments and observations. I hope&nbsp; that this method will be interesting and useful&nbsp;&nbsp;
for those of you who are trying to further improve&nbsp; your strategy and Achieve greater success in trading. let me start setting indicators. in today's&nbsp;&nbsp;
method I set two indicators and the first one&nbsp; is macd. let's change the period to 5, 19 and 25. as for the colors let me choose white and maybe
yellow. the second indicator is Vortex. let's&nbsp; reduce the period to nine. leave the color as they&nbsp;are.
just taking the lines and save them. we have&nbsp; to set up Japanese 15c candles and we have&nbsp;&nbsp;
to trade on 1 minute time interval. as you know&nbsp; the last process is to select the best currency&nbsp;pair. for this method I choose relatively less&nbsp; aggressive curreny pairs. because this method
gives much better results when the currency&nbsp; pair movements are not very aggressive. friends, if&nbsp;&nbsp; you are interested, the link to register on the&nbsp; platform will be in the video description as you&nbsp;&nbsp;
see, I found the first good moment and I want to&nbsp; tell you that this method has several good moments&nbsp;&nbsp; where you can open a position. at this particular&nbsp; moment when both indicators showed me a&nbsp;&nbsp;
signal I definitely waited for a green candle and&nbsp; when the green candle Rose high enough at that&nbsp;&nbsp; moment I opened the position in the downward&nbsp; Direction. I also open positions at other moments&nbsp;&nbsp;
and I will try to show you the situations in&nbsp; which you can open them. and everything is going in&nbsp;&nbsp; a perfect way. great! I won quite convincingly&nbsp; and I really love when I win the first trade.
this moment is similar to the previous&nbsp; one but here I would like to point out the&nbsp;&nbsp; fact that makes this particular situation more&nbsp; convincing. this is a strong downtrend which is &nbsp;
expressed in the candles of the currency pairs. when I see such a downtrend in&nbsp;&nbsp; this unique case I don't look at the macd candles&nbsp; in which direction they are made. but there must&nbsp;&nbsp;
be a crossing of the yellow and white lines of&nbsp; the macd or these two lines must&nbsp;&nbsp; at least touch or cross. of course of course as you can see I won convincingly.
it's great but here as I observe the&nbsp; development of events I can still open a&nbsp;&nbsp; position with a one minute time interval in the&nbsp; downward direction. as for the vortex indicator&nbsp;&nbsp;
it's red and green lines must necessarily&nbsp; intersect with the MacD lines in combination&nbsp;&nbsp; in order for the signal of the indicator to&nbsp; be considered positive and strong. if both&nbsp;&nbsp;
indicators in combination don't give a signal&nbsp; in this case don't enter the trade. that is&nbsp;&nbsp; I don't open a position in either direction. so,&nbsp; combined signal of these two indicators is&nbsp;&nbsp;
the main thing in this method. and then I look at&nbsp; the candles and other small details and let's see..
oh unfortunately, I lost $1,000 and got the&nbsp; rest back. that's what happens sometimes. I&nbsp;&nbsp;
could have lost the entire amount. so, I was lucky.&nbsp; friends, I think I found a very good moment. the&nbsp;&nbsp; macd and Vortex indicators gave me a signal and I&nbsp; was missing one detail that made me wait a little&nbsp;&nbsp;
bit longer. it was the start of a green candle.&nbsp; as soon as the green&nbsp;&nbsp; candle started you can see that I opened&nbsp; the position in the downward Direction. here I&nbsp;&nbsp;
also have a stronger signal from the macd in&nbsp; addition to crossing the yellow and white&nbsp;&nbsp; lines. its candles are also tilted in the down&nbsp; Direction so, this I think this strengthens&nbsp;&nbsp;
the macd signal as I already told you. and so far, I&nbsp; understand that this is good. I won.. it's great&nbsp;&nbsp;
to win after a previous unsuccessful moment.&nbsp; friends, at this particular moment what you see&nbsp;&nbsp; on the platform now according to my strategy&nbsp; I would wait for a green candle which would&nbsp;&nbsp;
show me the right time to open a position in&nbsp; the downward Direction. however during today's&nbsp;&nbsp; trading session I decided to finish discussing&nbsp; my method. I hope that my Approach and strategic&nbsp;&nbsp;
Vision that I have shared with you so far have&nbsp; been useful to you. I appreciate your attention.&nbsp;&nbsp; please, note that my videos are not investment&nbsp; advice. they are educational in nature.
have a good day! have a great trading day and I&nbsp; will see you in the next video! thank you so much
