Discover How to Judge Trading Risk Using the CAD/JPY as an Example
Judging trading risk is crucial for consistent success. Many traders focus only on reward. But risk assessment comes first. The CAD/JPY pair offers a perfect example. CAD is commodity-linked. JPY is a safe-haven. This cross reveals risk sentiment clearly.
One of the key planks of trading success is in understanding and assessing risk on each trade, and in this example, from the London forex session we focus on the CAD/JPY which has several forces which influence it daily, as with so many of the cross-currency pairs in the yen complex.
Why CAD/JPY for Risk Judgment
CAD/JPY measures risk appetite. Strong CAD (rising oil/commodities) with weak JPY signals risk-on. Reverse for risk-off. Volume price analysis (VPA) judges the strength—high volume on moves shows conviction. Low volume warns of traps.
Step-by-Step Risk Assessment with VPA
Relational View: Use currency strength indicator. CAD high, JPY low = risk-on bias. Favor longs.
Volume Confirmation: High volume on...

As London Opens, Yen Buyers Reflect Risk Appetite
The London forex session often sets the tone for risk sentiment. Yen buyers stepping in early signal risk-off mood. Safe-haven demand for JPY rises when equities fall or uncertainty grows. This reflects trader caution. Plenty of yen buying across the complex as risk sentiment weakens following the reaction to the overnight news of progress in finding a vaccine for COVID-19 and displayed clearly on the currency array indicator in multiple timeframes. Risk currencies are much in evidence and one of the many key topics I cover in the complete forex education program which you can find here at https://quantumtradingeducation.com and the currency array indicator at https://quantumtrading.com

How to Use Higher and Lower Timeframes to Identify Trends
Multiple timeframes are essential for accurate trend identification. Higher timeframes reveal the big picture. Lower timeframes provide precise timing. This alignment reduces false signals. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms trend strength across frames. Quantum indicators make the process visual and reliable.
In this video from the webclass of the London forex session Anna exlains how to use higher and lower timeframes to help identify trends.
Higher Timeframes for Overall Trend Bias
Start with daily or weekly charts. These show the primary trend. Look for sustained moves with volume support. High volume on up candles = bullish bias. Low volume extremes warn of potential reversals.
Higher frames filter noise. They prevent counter-trend trades. Quantum Trend Monitor on NinjaTrader or MT5 aligns direction clearly—green for uptrends, red for down.
Lower Timeframes for Entry and Exit Timing
Switch to hourly, 15-minute, or lower charts. These break down the higher timeframe candle. See inside the move—volume flows, pullbacks, or momentum surges.
