It’s All About Levels for the NQ Emini
The NQ Emini (Nasdaq futures) is fast and volatile. Success often comes down to levels. Support and resistance guide price action. These zones attract volume. Traders use them for entries, exits, and risk management.
With US indices falling out of balance as the Nasdaq 100 continues to rise strongly, while the S&P500 and the Dow Jones trade within the range of a volatility candle, many are asking whether the NQ is now at an exhaustion top. In this video we take a look at the NQ emini futures contract from a volume price analysis perspective and as you will see, it's all about levels and whether the 10,700 region will be breached.
Key Levels in NQ Trading
NQ respects psychological and technical levels. Round numbers (e.g., 20000) act as magnets. Previous highs/lows become support or resistance. Volume price analysis (VPA) validates them—high volume at a level shows conviction. Low volume bounces signal weakness.
VPA at Levels

If you are new to the volume price analysis methodology, this example from yesterday's trading session on the Emini future for the YM would be hard to beat as it explains many of the concepts which provide the foundation of this approach. And perhaps more importantly, not only where to get in if you missed the first part of the trend lower, but helping you to stay in to maximize your profit from the trend.

Discover How to Create Your Own Trading Matrix on Your Desktop
Creating your own trading matrix on your desktop is simple and free. It helps with relational analysis. Group related currency pairs into workspaces. This mimics a professional matrix. Traders see strength and weakness across pairs quickly.
If you don't have the currency matrix indicator for NinjaTrader or for MT4/MT5, here's a neat way to create your own. In this video, this one is for the currency majors, giving us a great view across the complex of whether the sentiment for the US dollar is universal. In other words, whether the market is buying or selling the US dollar across all the major pairs. If so, you are trading with the money flow and taking a lower-risk trade. If not, then the risk on the trade is higher. It's that simple, and that's why the currency matrix indicator is one of our most popular.

Learn How to Trade Forex Using the Currency Strength Indicator and Currency Matrix Indicator
Forex trading benefits from relational tools. The currency strength indicator ranks currencies by performance. Strong currencies rise to the top. Weak ones fall to the bottom. This reveals opportunities quickly. Learn how to trade forex using the currency strength indicator and currency matrix indicator, and in particular how to isolate out the currency pairs to focus on those you are trading.
The Currency Strength Indicator in Action
The currency strength indicator measures relative power. It updates in real time. Extremes signal overbought or oversold conditions. Pair strongest with weakest for trend trades. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms conviction—high volume on moves validates the ranking.
Adding the Currency Matrix for Depth
The currency matrix shows cross-pair dynamics. It highlights how one currency affects others. Use it with the strength indicator for full relational view. Quantum tools on MT5 or NinjaTrader display both clearly. Spot sentiment shifts early.

The Importance of Trading with Multiple Time Frames
No matter which market or instrument you trade, using different timeframes is a foundation stone of trading and one we cover in detail in the mechanics of trading module in The Complete Forex Trading Program The reason is simple. One timeframe will reveal things you would not see in others and so provides a complete view of your trading horizon.
Trading with multiple time frames is a powerful approach. It gives traders a better context. Higher time frames show the big picture trend. Lower time frames reveal entry and exit points. This combination reduces false signals.
Why Multiple Time Frames Matter in VPA
Volume price analysis (VPA) shines when using multiple time frames. On the daily chart, you spot accumulation or distribution phases. Switch to the 1-hour or 15-minute chart for confirmation. High volume on supporting candles validates the move. Quantum indicators, such as the Trend Monitor, help align timeframes seamlessly.

Using non time based charts is a great way to scalp any futures market and in this video we take this to a new level, using multiple renko charts and in particular using the renko optimizer for the NinjaTrader platform. In this array we use three renko charts set to three different timeframes and matched to the three charts below. This gives us the double advantage of trading using non time based renko charts, and applying volume price analysis on the time charts. A powerful combination of six charts.

One of the important phases of price action in any market is volatility. Why? Because two forces are at work. The first is the emotional fear of missing out, in other words FOMO. The second is the fact this is the time the market makers and insiders are at their most active. They understand FOMO and use it repeatedly to trap traders into weak positions, either following such a move with congestion, increasing the fear further, or simply reversing the price action and taking out stops. Either way it's win win for the insiders and a simple and powerful way for them to make money. Learn how and why in this video and discover how to avoid being trapped.

Reversal Trading Pattern on the AUD/USD
Reversal trading patterns on AUD/USD offer high-probability setups. This commodity-linked pair is volatile. Sharp trends create exhaustion points. Traders spot reversals early for counter-trend entries.
The currency matrix looks at the relative strength and weakness of 28 pairs and ranks them accordingly.
