For me it's not a matter of whether you can afford it or not. I can. I just agree with what you used to say... it is not necessary if you read the material and practice.

That said... The main reason for bothering building the clone is because some here have taken it upon themselves to deceptively use the good will of the people in this thread and try to charge for what I and others think is junk.

Our version will be identical to TG with many improvements as well and will be free. Hopefully, as it is mainly intended to train, will serve people...
as you know shamus .. I use only esignal and do not need some fancy arse software to spot the set ups...... i have become very proficient in VSA.

looking forward to looking at what you have though ....

To clarify

tradeguider not required for vsa , although is big help is learning. If you can afford it.

Esignal is a should have if wanting to do this full time and be serious about it.

MT4 .. IBFX is ok and comparable to esignal for those learning VSA and getting into trading. I have found that sometime IBFX data goes out of whack with esignal. (about 5 or so time per weak in high volume times)

Books.

Master the markets

DVD.

Tradeguider have 2 dvd sets.

I know and you are quite good at it.

I am confident you'll be impressed with the trainer. It won't be ready for testing for a few more weeks though. I'll email a copy as soon as it's ready so you can check it out.

We are going to be building out modules as we go as well so expect to start seeing some stuff fairly soon. We will then be moving on to more advanced background stuff later if all goes well framework wise. MT4 is somewhat limiting in a lot of ways but I am fairly confident a lot of those limitations can be worked around.

PS in regards to the "junk" comment I made earlier... that was NOT directed at TG. Most of you know what I am talking about so I'll leave it at that.
The trend always ends.

It is evident that one can learn VSA without investing in any additional tools. However, as Shreem and Malcolm and a myriad of others have said along the way -- these tools have aided and assisted them in trading VSA.

I have always found the sure way to become better at something is to emulate those who are better at it than me -- pick someone who is a master and learn everything you can from them. A couple of masters have posted in this thread from time to time and they do use tools that actually cost some dinero (eSignal being one of them). I decided to cut my teeth on mt4 demo, moved to trading a small live account at Oanda using mt4 for charting, my next step is to open a larger account through leveragefx.com so I can take advantage of their free eSignal feed for trading so many mini-lots per month. At some point I may even go back and buy TG for the scanning capability -- but I have a target in my account I must reach before I will do this.

Just my .02 cents.

Malcomb you are such a down to earth helpful guy..

I find the time that you spend on sharing your knowledge and teaching traders how to get it right is just unbelievable....

No I don't follow things blindly that you say...but I can say that I have had a vast improvement in my trading and my approach has totally changed

Thank you very much

I really appreciate your help..

That is exactly I am doing too. For the time not being able to profit out the expense of esignal, IBFX demo should do for learning.

I just wanted to add for Shamus' post that I am actually surprised by the statement that some here try to sell something which is considered junk by the leader traders here. (I am equally surprised to see that there are few guys here offering bacisally free education and mentoring to beginner traders....things are not like this in my vampire country for sure Malcolm may know from his ex)
Similarly, I do not get the thing, that is, if a trader does good, how come not to pay for some useful tools? If the trading ends up doing fine, 200 should be the spending money for a day...nothing. When I was a student - aha was goood - we downloaded whatever cracked software was out there. I tried to use once a cracked final element package to design some beams in a "puny" hospital. If I went by the results, it would have collapsed by this stage...(I ended up doing manual structural design on the beams - still stands

Can not wait to learn from the signals showing up on the MT4 TG clone!!
Kind Regards zol
