In this part of the London forex trading session we show you how to identify and select the best trading opportunity in all timeframes. The Quantum Trading currency strength indicator is a key tool in any analysis as it reveals strength and weakness in individual currencies and in particular this which are moving in the same direction, and those moving in opposite directions. It is the latter which we are interested in as this means one currency is being bought strongly and the other sold strongly and so generating a strong trend, or a solid reversal.

Trading using non time-based charts has many advantages, but one drawback which is this. How you do you know what to set for your tick or renko charts. More importantly, both of these settings are dependant on the instrument you are trading and also the time of the trading day. After all, markets speed up and slow down constantly. It's not a case of set and forget. And in this video, we explain how to do this using the Tickspeedometer and the Renko Optimizer for NinajTrader.

Patience Is Required When You See the Signal of Volume Price Analysis
Volume price analysis (VPA) delivers powerful signals. High volume on moves shows conviction. But even strong signals require patience. Jumping in too early often leads to traps. Waiting for confirmation protects capital.
As a student of volume price analysis, it's very easy to get excited when you see a clear signal of buying or selling by the insiders, and jump straight in. But patience is required as the initial signal may be just that - the first sign of buying or selling which is then confirmed with further signals which reinforce the message. In this video we use an example from spot forex and the GBP/JPY during the online webclass for volume price analysis students.
Why Patience Matters in VPA
VPA spots accumulation or distribution early. A signal appears—high volume at support, for example. But price may test further. Low volume spikes can fake reversals. True strength needs volume alignment. Rushing ignores...
None of us are patient, yet when it comes to congestion phases this is where patience really does pay off, as these are the price regions where trends are created and born. And remember Wyckoff's second law of cause and effect, the longer the cause the greater will be the effect. In other words this brings time into the equation.

How to Trade Volatility in the Forex Market
Volatility in forex refers to the magnitude of price swings. High volatility means big moves—great for profits but risky. Low volatility means ranges—often frustrating. Trading volatility isn't about predicting direction perfectly. It's about positioning for movement (or lack of it) with discipline.
Successful volatility trading uses volume price analysis (VPA) for confirmation. High volume on swings shows conviction. Low volume warns of traps. Quantum tools enhance this on MT5 or NinjaTrader.
This morning's price action on the British pound was classic, following the release of UK news and the BOE statement. The primary pair for trading is of course cable, but the price action here was extreme, whipsawing in a wide range and making it almost impossible to trade. So what's the answer?
In short, look to other currency pairs and, in particular, the cross-currency pairs. In this case it was the GBP/AUD which delivered tradable opportunities which the GBP/USD did not. So remember, when you...
