In these tricky market conditions, it's important to use a combination of time and non time based charts which is why we developed some specialist indicators Renko indicators here at Quantumtrading.
The chart featured is the version for MT5 and shows this morning's strong move in the gbp/jpy currency pair. However, the indicator can be applied to any instrument made available by your broker. There is also a version for MT4 and Ninjatrader. In addition, the value of the renko brick can either be set manually or you can follow the atr value suggested by the indicator.
In this example, the currency pair began the move lower after the start of the London session in a downtrend that was relatively smooth and free from pullbacks as we can see on the chart. By applying our other unique indicators such as trends, trend monitor, support and resistance and pivots we can see when the move is likely to come to an end.
The move...
Using the Array and Matrix indicator in multiple time frames can produce some great reversal trading opportunities, as we have seen earlier today in the gbp/cad pair.
The time frames in question are the hourly matrix and 15 min array in conjunction with a 3 pip Renko and 3 minute chart.
And in these highly charged markets resulted in a move in excess of 200 pips.
All the indicators are available for MT4, MT5 and Ninjatrader.

Getting into a Trend Using the Currency Strength Indicator
Getting into a trend early gives traders an edge. The currency strength indicator helps spot these opportunities. It ranks currencies by relative performance. Strong currencies rise to the top. Weak ones fall to the bottom. This reveals emerging trends quickly. In this session from the London forex session we explain how to use the currency strength indicator to help you get into a trend.
How the Indicator Signals Trends
The indicator updates in real time. Look for sustained extremes—currencies staying strong or weak over sessions. Pair the strongest with the weakest for momentum plays. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms entry—high volume on moves shows conviction.
Practical Steps for Trend Entries
Select pairs from extremes on the indicator. Confirm with higher timeframe alignment. Enter on pullbacks with volume support. Quantum Trading's indicator on MT5 or NinjaTrader includes alerts for timely action. Avoid middling pairs in choppy markets.
Anna Coulling's approach uses this for disciplined trend trading. The currency...

Using the Currency Matrix and Currency Array Together for Forex Trading
The Quantum Currency Matrix and Currency Array are two complementary tools. They provide a complete relational view of the forex market. The Matrix shows pair bias in a grid. The Array visualizes momentum as steep lines. Used together, they reveal sentiment, trends, and opportunities clearly. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms signals with conviction.
The Currency Matrix: Relational Bias at a Glance
The Matrix grids all major pairs. Cells color-code performance:
Green: Bullish bias (first currency strong).
Red: Bearish bias.
Intensity reflects strength.
This highlights relational extremes. Strong USD weakens all USD pairs (red cells). Traders spot sentiment fast—risk-on or off.
The Currency Array: Momentum and Trend Strength
The Array displays pairs as lines fanning from center. Steep lines = strong momentum. Flat = congestion. This shows trend steepness visually. Long green runs = sustained buying. Deep red = selling pressure.
Switch timeframes easily—daily for trends, lower for entries.
How They Work Together
Combine for deeper insight:
