Euro, yen and pound in focus as London FX opens

https://youtu.be/LN4yZczBt0s Euro, Yen and Pound in Focus as London FX Opens Euro, yen, and pound take centre stage as London FX opens. These majors drive early volatility. Traders watch for sentiment clues. Risk-on or risk-off flows often emerge here. In this morning's forex session, David and I started with a look at the EUR/CAD. This is a pair I highlighted a few days ago on my site. It is an interesting confluence of the fundamental, the technical, and the relational. We explain this in great detail in the Quantum Trading forex education program. Why These Currencies Matter at London Open London overlap brings high liquidity. Euro reacts to ECB hints. Yen reflects safe-haven demand. Pound ties to UK data. Volume price analysis (VPA) spots conviction—high volume on moves confirms direction. Practical Trading Insights Focus on EUR/USD, USD/JPY, and GBP/USD. Currency strength indicator ranks them quickly. Quantum matrix on MT5 or NinjaTrader highlights relational extremes. Anna Coulling's VPA approach navigates open-hour noise effectively. Euro, yen, and pound in...

Gold, oil and indices all in focus in this session on NinjaTrader

Gold, oil and indices all in focus in this session on NinjaTrader

More excellent VPA lessons in this week's webinar during the US session as David and I focus on commodities, indices and stocks, and in this session we start with gold which had one of its best days for many weeks, with the two drivers of USD weakness and a flight to safe haven, all helping to propel the precious metal away from the drop zone below the $1200 per our region, if albeit only a temporary respite. The safe haven flows were as a result of the uncertainty in Europe and in particular the Italian budget, but as always, this looks likely to be resolved and such flows then likely to reverse just as fast. All of this was beautifully displayed on the renko optimizer for NinjaTrader, along with the other Quantum Trading indicators for NinjaTrader, and also confirmed on the intraday time based charts. Whilst the longer term picture for gold remains bearish, this was a day for the...

Nice move in the euro along with the pound in the London session

Nice move in the euro along with the pound in the London session

https://youtu.be/QQvzkV2brBE Nice Move in the Euro Along with the Pound in the London Session A nice move unfolded in the euro and pound during the London session. Both currencies gained strength. EUR/USD and GBP/USD rallied steadily. This reflected positive European sentiment. Traders spotted relational opportunities in majors and crosses. Another great session this morning with David and myself as we showcase the Quantum Trading tools and indicators through the European open and into the London session, and the two currencies we focused on here were the British pound and the euro. As you would expect these are the currencies that take centre stage as European markets open, and we were not disappointed with the euro finding some positive sentiment and sending it firmly higher against the US dollar which was equally bearish on the faster timeframes, and so developing a nice trend. And of course this was clearly in evidence on the currency strength indicator on both the MT5 platform and the NinjaTrader...

MT5 currency matrix delivers a great eur/jpy trade!

MT5 currency matrix delivers a great eur/jpy trade!

https://youtu.be/JQuxJBCsZEs In this video we focus on the currency matrix and how to use it in combination with the currency strength indicator. In this example from early in the London session bullish sentiment for the euro drives several pairs but the euro yen really does deliver, and we return to follow the price action later in the morning, as this pair continues to rise strongly. A fantastic example and supported of course by the Quantum currency strength indicator and the other tools and indicators on the charts themselves. Understanding universal sentiment and flow is key to currency trading success, and the currency matrix indicator for MT5 delivers, visually and clearly in all time-frames showing you instantly which pairs are rising strongly and which perhaps are not following the general market sentiment....

Great forex session with the GBP/AUD, the GBP/JPY and the AUD/JPY all in focus

Great forex session with the GBP/AUD, the GBP/JPY and the AUD/JPY all in focus

A great forex session this morning in the live webinar with David and myself, and one where we were spoilt for choice in terms of trading lessons and also trading opportunities. The pairs we chose were the GBP/AUD on the MT5 platform and the AUD/JPY on the NinjaTrader platform, before moving to look at the GBP/JPY later in the webinar and of course all analysed through the prism of volume price analysis and the Quantum Trading tools and indicators. For the GBP/AUD is was a case of further heavy selling in this pair and reflected in the time based charts supported by the MT5 renko chart. As always the currency strength indicator signalled the strength of the move and again using multiple timeframes giving the clear signals we need to select the currency or currency pair for further analysis. One of the keys to success is in applying volume price analysis which then helps to identify whether a reversal is...

Excellent trades in the majors during the London FX session

Excellent trades in the majors during the London FX session

https://youtu.be/MIwsXPvTWJo Another excellent forex trading session for the European and London open with the pound and the euro in focus as the Far East and Asia session comes to a close. With the US dollar selling off this helped to propel many of the major currency pairs, and with strong euro buying on the faster timeframes, the euro dollar was certainly one which delivered, with the British pound also following suit and helped higher with the Barnier bounce. Once again the currency strength indicator highlights the pairs to consider with the euro rising strongly and counterbalanced with an equally strong move lower for the US dollar, with the British pound moving in to overbought on the faster timeframes, with the currency array then The key as always is in using multiple timeframes and blending time and non time based charts to deliver all the key pieces of the jigsaw. As always some great volume price analysis lessons in this session with the...

Day trading gold and other commodities in the US session

https://youtu.be/64-8qg5I2EM In this session Anna and David focus on day trading commodities in the US session and in particular gold which delivered some solid moves for speculative intraday traders and supported by the Quantum Trading tools and indicators. Anna starts the session looking at gold on the MT5 platform which is a great place to start with both renko and time based charts. Then David takes over on NinjaTrader, adding tick charts as a further blended option and using the Tickspeedometer indicator to deliver the precise tick speed setting for the charts. The renko optimiser then provides an additional view on the price action and yet another non time based chart to help with entry and exit points. Using renko charts, tick charts and time based charts together, provides a three dimensional view of the price action giving day traders a unique view with all the pieces of the puzzle helping to provide a unified picture for clear and logical decision making....

Choose your currency pair with care!

Choose your currency pair with care!

https://youtu.be/xTPs_2Ws7aQ In this video we highlight the currency strength indicator and the currency array indicator for NinjaTrader, and the importance of understanding universal flow in the market. Here we see strong buying for the British pound and the euro which is reflected in the charts, but is sentiment for the two currencies universal across the complex, and this is where the currency array indicator steps in to help. In the ranking ladder to for the currency array we can see sentiment for the GBP is universal with strong buying in all the pairs. For the euro this is not the case and highlighting the key point, which is to choose your currency pairs with care. Trading against the universal market sentiment is fine, as long as are aware that this is indeed the case. Most forex traders are not, and so assume the market is universally bullish or bearish on the currency which is often not the case at all!!...
