Is Reversal Trading in Forex for You – or Is Trend Trading the Best Option?
Neither reversal trading nor trend trading is universally "best" in forex. Both can be profitable. The right choice depends on your personality, risk tolerance, and market conditions. Volume price analysis (VPA) works brilliantly for both styles. It provides objective signals through volume confirmation.
In the London forex session, the focus was on reversals and reversal trading, and whether this suits your temperament and personality as a trader. The forex market is one of mean reversion, with currencies moving from oversold to overbought and back again in all timeframes. This presents a myriad of trading opportunities using the currency strength indicator for MT5, NinjaTrader and TradingView. But the question is whether this is for you.
The Advantages Of Reversak Trading
The advantage of reversal trading is as a trader you get in early and so maximize returns on the position. However, getting in early comes at a price, which is...

Day Trading the ES Emini on Tick Charts and TickSpeedometer Delivers Solid Profits
Day trading the ES Emini benefits from tick charts. They focus on activity, not time. This removes noise in fast markets. The TickSpeedometer adds precision. It measures participation surges to improve entry timing. An interesting session for US indices where despite the relatively narrow price action, the tick charts delivered some solid trading profits for intraday scalping traders. The focus in this session was on the ES emini, the most heavily traded index, and using tick charts in combination with the Ninjatrader Tickspeedometer indicator.
This approach delivered some solid results despite the fact markets were waiting for FED chair Powell to deliver a speech to the Economic Club of Washington DC, with a question and answer session to follow. It was no surprise to see markets trading in a relatively tight range, but nonetheless delivering for the emini scalping trader.

The London forex session offers more volume price analysis (VPA) lessons. High liquidity creates clear signals. Volume surges early. This reveals true market intent. Traders learn to spot conviction quickly.
More great volume price analysis lessons this morning in the London forex session as we focused on the British pound, with further volatility expected as Brexit continues to exert its influence across the complex.
But we started with a look at the NZD/CAD on the daily timeframe which continues to remain firmly anchored to the top of the heatmap, as we wait for the pair to weaken and move away from this extreme position. As always, patience is required, and the approach here is the same, whether for the currency strength indicator or the currency heatmap when trading extremes. For the former it is the currencies themselves, and for the latter it is the currency pairs. In either case, patience is required along...

Basic Trading Lessons for New Traders in All Markets
Trading offers excitement and potential rewards. But most new traders lose money. Success comes from discipline, not luck. These basic lessons apply across all markets—forex, stocks, futures, commodities, or crypto. Volume price analysis (VPA) provides the foundation. Start here for long-term consistency.
Another great session with all the markets in focus from commodities and indices to stocks. Some great trading lessons here in all markets and timeframes on the NinjaTrader platform and using the Quantum Trading indicators.
1. Risk Management Comes First
Never risk more than you can afford to lose. Limit each trade to 1-2% of your account. Use stop losses always. This protects capital. One bad trade won't end your journey. VPA helps place stops—beyond high volume levels for conviction.
2. Patience Is Your Greatest Edge
Markets don't move every minute. Wait for high-probability setups. Avoid FOMO—chasing spikes often traps traders. VPA teaches patience—high volume on moves confirms real intent. Low volume extremes warn of...
Choosing the best stocks for day trading can be tricky and if you choose the wrong ones, it can be tough make money as a day trader.
In this session, we cover some of the basics of stock selection for day trading and also highlight one of the key issues which is understanding floating supply.
Floating supply is one of the most important factors to consider for the simple reason if the floating supply is small, then volatility is likely to be high as the price can be manipulated by the market makers very easily, or indeed a single large order. The opposite is where floating supply is large and in this case volatility will be reduced as these stocks are harder to corner for the market makers and insiders.
This was also a great trading day with the opportunity to make money in all markets, with the ES index falling strongly along with the sister indices of the YM and NQ emini,...
Using multiple timeframes is one of the keys to trading success and in this morning's forex session we explain why, and using several of the GBP pairs.
The reasons are many. First, using this approach reveals how price action in one timeframe, can reveal so much in another. Overlaying two candles is easy, but doing this with several is hard and almost impossible to do quickly. The Quantum Trading indicators for MT5 and NinjaTrader then help, with different signals in different timeframes. One may be signaling a change in trend which is developing, or perhaps a volatility signal is triggered.
Finally, the price action itself reveals areas of support and resistance, of deep concentrations of volume which are not apparent on the timeframe of choice. All of these then provide the pieces of the jigsaw, which answer the simple question 'where is the market heading next?' And all underpinned of course by volume price analysis, which again offers powerful insights when applied...

Oil Delivers….Again, and Again, and Again….
Oil has been a trader's dream lately. It delivers consistent opportunities. The price keeps falling. This creates straightforward, low-risk, high-return trades. WTI futures lead the way. Momentum stays bearish across all timeframes.
It's often hard to find trading opportunities which just deliver, and keep delivering, but for oil this has been the case over the last few weeks, and this was no different yesterday, with the WTI futures as the price of oil fell once more, and offering straightforward, low risk, high return trading opportunities in all time frames.
The primary decision trading decision here is the number of contract to trade, with the time and non time based charts providing those key insights to maximize returns. And here, it really is a case of make hay while the sun shines. These fantastic trading opportunities don't come along every day, and until OPEC moves and potentially introduces supply cuts, this bearish momentum looks set to continue, but...
