Yen pairs on the Matrix confirm market rout
Yen Pairs on the Matrix Confirm Market Rout
Yen pairs on the matrix confirm market rout clearly. Safe-haven JPY surges as equities fall. Risk-off sentiment dominates. Currency matrix highlights yen strength across crosses. This signals broad market weakness.
Strong safe haven flows into the Japanese yen confirmed on the hourly chart of the Currency matrix with heaviest flows into usd/jpy and cad/jpy, the latter also suffering from a sharp fall in oil prices. The matrix indicator ranks the performance of all the 28 pairs featured and highlights potential oversold and overbought trading opportunities.
Note also the numbers next to the pairs and the values reflect the strength of the move. In other words, the higher the value the bigger the move.
How the Matrix Reveals Rout
The currency matrix ranks pairs relationally. Yen pairs like USD/JPY or GBP/JPY drop sharply. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms selling conviction—high volume on down candles. Quantum matrix on MT5 or NinjaTrader shows yen topping rankings.

Renko delivers on gbp/aud on a quiet day
There are many advantages to using a Renko chart one of which is it can help to deliver good trading opportunities even in difficult, tight range markets. One example is from the gbp/aud on a quiet day yet when set at a fixed value of 2 pips per brick managed to produce over 80 pips.

Yen buyers drive risk off sentiment
The Japanese yen was much in demand in early trading in the London forex session, as overnight concerns of the Chinese virus sent Far East and Asia equity markets lower. This followed through into Europe and London with markets falling. As a result the commodity currencies were much in focus on the currency strength indicator and currency matrix, followed by pound buying later in the session.

The souffle effect for US indices!
US index futures reacted to more news from the Trump Twitter handle which created the price action we have seen so many times before. A rapid move in one direction followed by an equally dramatic move in the opposite direction not long after. It's what we call the 'souffle' effect for this reason, and is one to watch out for in all markets as it offers terrific two way price action in a relatively short space of time. And of course, all confirmed with volume price analysis and the indicators.

Only one currency in focus in the London forex session!
There was only one currency in focus this morning as the country goes to the polls today on one of the tightest general elections we have seen for decades. Ahead of the London forex open, the GBP was being bought but as so often occurs at session crossovers, the trend higher on the GBP/JPY was reversed with the pair moving lower. The volatility indicator was much in evidence as was the volume point of control across the various timeframes, and coupled with the price based support and resistance indicator and accumulation and distribution indicators, defined clear levels of support and resistance.

Using the TickSpeedometer to Reveal Momentum and Participation
The TickSpeedometer is a powerful Quantum indicator for NinjaTrader. It measures tick velocity in real time. This reveals surges in buying or selling pressure. Traders see momentum and participation instantly. Traditional charts hide this detail. TickSpeedometer exposes it. In the US trading session, we take a closer look at the Quantum Trading Tickspeedometer indicator and how to use it with time-based charts. Then we move on to the E-mini indices as they trade in a quiet session ahead of the NFP data on Friday.
How TickSpeedometer Works
The indicator tracks ticks per second or period. High speed shows strong momentum. Low speed signals fading interest. Volume price analysis (VPA) pairs perfectly—high tick speed with volume confirms conviction. Low speed on price moves warns of traps.
Revealing Participation in Markets
Participation is key in fast markets like emini futures or forex. TickSpeedometer highlights surges. For example, a rally on rising tick speed shows buyers dominating. Sudden drop in...
