The video is for those already in a position and have difficulty keeping trades open whilst in profit, to let them run. Get out once the moving average reverses and price closes below/above it. Being whipsawed out is just part of trading, the point in letting winners run is to keep probability on your side. There is no 100% probability (guarantee as you put it) of a position to run but you have a guaranteed 0% chance of making any more money on it if you close the position. Once it hits your stop then it hits your stop, at least you gave yourself a chance of making more on an already winning position.

post this comment when you have the discipline of Peter and compound like he does.

I love that someone of the caliber and experience of Peter Brandt is teaching the most basic fundamentals. The point is not to introduce us to an idea we have never considered. Obviously everyone understands a simple moving average. The gold here is that we are being told, by one of the best in the business, that you do not need more information, more indicators, more sophisticated techniques and tricks, that they are a distraction. You can spend a lifetime effing around with all the indicators you want, drawing all the lines in the world and lose your ass 100 times over. The Peter Brant series is amazing. I rewatched the risk management episode a couple times. Peter Brandt focuses on excellent risk management and downplays entry. With great risk management it almost doesn't matter what your entry is. You from will keep from loosing too much if the trade does not work out and live to try again. In this sense his technical analysis simply give him a tool to make consistent decisions on entry and exit. Thats an awesome lesson and it deserves constant reinforcement.

A 14 and 21 MA are sufficiently close in period that they won't show much difference. If a MA cross over system is used to enter and exit trades it would be usual to choose two with a greater difference. for example and 8 and 21 period MA for a short term strategy – long when the 8 crosses above the 21 and exit or short when it crosses below. However, you will mostly get chopped to pieces trading a system like that. The use of 3 or 4 MA's like 21, 50 & 200 is common as a general health guide and partly because it is generally believed many large funds look at the longer averages and won't for instance buy if price is below a 200MA. Interestingly for some reason Peter showed examples with an 18MA and also had a 1 period MA on the chart, which is really just a proxy for price and in fact mostly obscured the price bars. Why did you use the 1MA Peter?
