The forex session crossovers can be a very tricky time with volatility and market manipulation. However, using multiple time frame charts and a Renko chart can help with entries, exits, and position holding. In this video, David & I look at a cable trade and the aud/usd.

The weekly chart for Meta is a great example of how the volume point of control and accumulation and distribution indicators gives shape to the price action on the chart. And when combined with volume price analysis, the reversal points, congestion phases, and potential breakouts are clearly defined.

Best Volatility Indicator for Intraday Trading: Quantum Volatility Indicator on NinjaTrader
Intraday trading thrives on volatility. Sharp moves create opportunities. But noise can trap traders. The best volatility indicator filters this. For ES Emini futures on NinjaTrader, the Quantum Volatility Indicator stands out. It measures expansion phases clearly. This helps spot high-movement periods and potential breakouts.
This week, some very volatile price action on the ES - the E-Mini Future for the S&P500 on the CPI release captured by our volatility indicator. These purple dots trigger in real time when the price action is outside the chart's average true range. As we can see, there was an extreme reaction to the CPI release with two huge, wide-spread candles, the second having a deep upper wick on falling volume, telling us loud and clear that a trap move was in progress.
Why Quantum Volatility Indicator Excels for Intraday
Traditional indicators like ATR or Bollinger Bands work well. But Quantum's version is tailored for fast markets....
Session crossovers provide market makers with the perfect opportunity to trap traders into losing positions. Sadly, many traders are still unaware that this happens regularly and across all markets. It is done using the volatility we always see when transitioning from one financial centre to another or at the opening of a physical market. For example, at the Wall Street open, there is an inrush of participants into equities and markets such as Globex. The result is always volatile, with prices moving quickly in one direction before reversing sharply.
However, traders who use price action and volume analysis recognize these traps and stay out until the true market direction is confirmed. There was a great example this week on the gbp/jpy at the London open when as we can see from the 15 min chart above, the currency pair seemed poised to reverse lower following a strong move higher at Eurex (the European open) and following such a move a reversal...
As traders, volatility can be our greatest friend and our worst enemy. Volatility is simply the compression of time, as the price action moves with speed and momentum, resulting in wide spread or even extreme candles or price bars. In other words, the range of movement has occurred over a very short time, and if we are on the right side of the market, such price moves will be welcomed as we watch our positions increase dramatically. However, they are not so welcome if we are on the wrong side.
Most of the time, we know when to expect volatile price action, at important news releases, at the market open, at rollover, and session crossovers, but more often, it is unexpected and comes out of the blue, which is why we developed the Dynamic Volatility Indicator.
DVI gives us the perfect solution as it signals volatility in real-time, using the principles of average true range. The indicator constantly scans the price action...

Forex Technical Analysis Tools
In this video, David & I look at the currencies ahead of tomorrow's Non-Farm Payroll release, particularly the USD and its relationship with bonds and stocks. We also cover the importance of monthly charts and how the volatility indicator can provide insight into the likely price action the following month. We also explain where traders can find volatility metrics for the pairs.
Forex technical analysis tools help traders make sense of complex markets. They reveal trends, sentiment, and potential moves. Volume price analysis (VPA) forms the foundation. Quantum Trading indicators enhance this on platforms like MT5, NinjaTrader, and TradingView.

In this video David & I explain how the CME Fed Watch Tool's probability that the FED would raise the FED Fund rate to 150-175 led to the latest market meltdown. We also looked at how using the Camarilla pivots in multiple time frames can help to determine our price objective.

The accumulation & distribution indicator combined with the volume point of control highlight perfectly what is likely to happen on the QQQ which is the ETF for the Nasdaq 100 and one of the most liquid instruments in the market with an average daily volume of over 75m so plenty of liquidity. However, given the price action looks to be congesting in the accumulation & distribution channel shown on the weekly chart it's no surprise that volumes are about half the usual average.
However, this is normal as volume always falls whenever a chart is in congestion/consolidation. The reason for this new phase of price action is in many ways not surprising given the recent volatility as the index (and markets take a breather) but we can expect volatility to pick up towards the end of the week with the CPI releases and next week, of course, we have the FOMC which is when the FED is expected to raise interest...
The volatility indicator together with reading the volume and understanding its relationship to the price action and candles reveals the cynicism behind the pump & dump of Plug Power. Note too the price channel defined by the accumulation & distribution indicator.
