FOREX

Forex as a Vector Ridge Model Universe

Vector Ridge sells access to models, not to markets. Forex is one of six universes — alongside Futures, Indices & ETFs, Equities, Crypto, and Polymarket — that the four proprietary models trade across. The model owns the corridor, the entry, the stop, and the exit; forex is simply the venue where the signal happens to fire.

That distinction matters because it changes what you are subscribing to. A subscriber on Day Trade gets every Day Trade signal regardless of which market it triggers in — some days that means EUR/USD intraday, others it means ES futures or QQQ. The model is the product. Forex is the universe.

How Each Model Engages Forex

Swing Trade — Forex Majors and Cleaner Crosses

Swing Trade holds positions 7-28 days, fired only when the corridor setup is exceptionally clean and the Atlas regime confirms direction. 78 signals 2026 YTD across all universes, 74.4% win rate, +225% raw signal P&L. In forex, Swing Trade leans on EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, and the cleanest crosses (EUR/JPY, GBP/JPY) where multi-week macro flow is the dominant driver. The Grade A bar is +6.00% per signal.

Multi Hour — Recovery Mechanics on Majors

Multi Hour catches 0.5-2 session moves — the strongest of the four models year-to-date. 262 signals YTD, 71.4% win rate, +404% raw signal P&L. Four conviction overlays stack on the base corridor (Grade A bar +4.50%). In forex this is the engine that catches London-NY transition recoveries, Asia overnight reversals, and session-handoff continuations on majors and the highest-liquidity crosses.

Day Trade — Intraday Forex Sessions

Day Trade fires within 0-60 minute windows across roughly 200 instruments. 308 signals YTD, 67.5% win rate, +95% raw signal P&L. Grade A bar +0.70%. In forex it leans heaviest on EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY during London and New York sessions where corridor breaches resolve within the same session.

Investing — Macro USD Positioning

Investing is the long book — 42 signals YTD, 73.8% win rate, +502% raw signal P&L, Sharpe 2.10. It rarely fires outright spot forex positions; instead it tracks USD positioning at the macro layer through DXY-correlated exposures (gold, Treasuries, EM equities). Forex traders use Investing as the regime overlay for everything else.

Atlas — The Macro Quadrant Bundled With Every Tier

Atlas is the 4-quadrant macro model (growth-up/inflation-up, growth-up/inflation-down, growth-down/inflation-up, growth-down/inflation-down). It does not generate trade signals itself — it sets the regime that conditions every other model's confidence. Atlas is bundled with every subscription tier from Single Model upward.

Key Forex Instruments

Across the four models, the forex universe spans:

Majors

EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, USD/CHF, AUD/USD, USD/CAD, NZD/USD — the seven most liquid currency pairs. Day Trade, Multi Hour, and Swing Trade all engage these directly. See per-instrument pages: EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, CAD/USD.

Minor / Cross Pairs

EUR/GBP, EUR/JPY, GBP/JPY, AUD/JPY, EUR/AUD, GBP/AUD, CAD/JPY, NZD/JPY — engaged primarily by Multi Hour and Swing Trade when cross-flow setups are cleaner than the USD leg.

Select Exotics

USD/MXN, USD/ZAR, EUR/TRY — opportunistic only, and only when the Atlas regime and the corridor setup both confirm.

Grade A-E Conviction on Forex Signals

Every signal across every model carries a Grade A-E rating. The Grade A bar differs by model because the horizon differs:

• Swing Trade Grade A — corridor expected ≥6.00% per signal
• Multi Hour Grade A — corridor expected ≥4.50% per signal
• Day Trade Grade A — corridor expected ≥0.70% per signal
• Grade B — strong corridor confidence, regime confirms
• Grade C — moderate confidence, one regime factor unresolved
• Grade D — lower confidence, take only with disciplined sizing
• Grade E — speculative or exit signal
