Understanding Volume in Forex: Why Tick Data Is Our Proxy (Football Stadium Analogy)
Forex markets are decentralized. No single exchange tracks every trade like stocks or futures. This raises a question: How do we measure volume? The answer is tick data—a reliable proxy for activity.

Imagine a football stadium from the outside. You can't see inside. But you hear the crowd.
Stadium Quiet: Low noise. Little happening—few goals, boring game. This is low tick volume. Market inactive. Price barely moves. No conviction.

Ticks are price changes (up or down). Each tick = a trade executed. High ticks = roaring crowd—real participation. Low ticks = quiet stadium—no momentum.
Why Tick Volume Works as Proxy
Brokers aggregate tick data from liquidity providers. It...

In the first part of the webinar we take a closer look at the current market narrative for inflation, what it is, what the metrics are and why it is important. With this item of fundamental news now rising to the top of the ranking ladder, risk markets such as equities remain cautious and this was the flavor across the US indices and for stocks in this trading session. On the daily timeframes, all three indices of the Dow, the Nasdaq100 and the S&P 500 are all trading in narrow ranges and looking fragile with indecisive candles signaling this clearly. Intraday it is much the same story with yen buying evident along with the US dollar.
