One of the most powerful ways to stay in the trend

October 14, 2020 by Quantum Trading Comment Closed

The problem for most traders is holding a position in the market once the trend is underway, and not to be bounced out in the inevitable round of pullnbacks and minor reversals which occur in all timeframes. No trend ever moves smoothly higher or lower without pausing and reversing against you and this is when emotion kicks in, and a decison is taken to close the position at a small profit. The problem then is one where a trader has several small lossess but few smaller profits and so the trading account fails to move forwards. To achieve this, profitable trends need to be maximised and this is where volume price analysis steps in to help and delivers a powerful tool in the trading armourry to help overcome this emotional response which can be so damaging. https://youtu.be/vqK2sSiHczk...

Watch out for changes in sentiment at the session crossovers

September 29, 2020 by Quantum Trading Comment Closed

In this video we explain the importance of session crossovers, what they are and why they occur, but more importantly what to look out for at these times as a forex trader. Whilst the forex market is often presented as a twenty-four hour market which technically it is, the times at which a major trading centre joins or takes over from one which closes, effectively breaks these up into four hour or eight hour periods of trading. At such times, the market makers are active and what we often see as here in this example, is a strong trend in one session then weakens or reverses and in this case is it the GBP/AUD which had a fantastic trend higher during the London session, only to reverse in the US session later. https://youtu.be/8mRH8f2bvjg...

Then the currency matrix and the currency array step in to reveal the same principles but in terms of the currency pairs themselves. Multiple timeframes also play a key part whether used on the indicators themselves or the charts and this is an interative process moving from one to another to select the best opportunity in your chosen timeframe. https://youtu.be/S0m3OiUuw9c...
