Support and resistance are integral to technical analysis and a key plank of volume-price analysis methodology. It therefore makes sense to use the best tools possible to highlight the areas and levels on a chart where the price action is going and where it might stall. At Quantumtrading, we have developed price- and volume-based tools to help traders and investors make sense of price action, and we have a great example of how the accumulation and distribution indicator, the volume point of control, and Camarilla pivot levels have all come together on the weekly chart.
Gold
The precious metal has recently found its mojo once again, lifting off a triple bottom at the $1632 region. It also coincides with the volume support and achieved the $1812 level, where it now faces its first primary price resistance level in the form of the accumulation and distribution indicator. We can see this given the thickness of the blue hatched line. The line thickens and...
Gold Trading Analysis
Gold trading analysis requires understanding commodity drivers. Price action alone can mislead. Volume price analysis (VPA) reveals true intent. High volume on moves shows conviction. Low volume warns of weakness.
A look at the daily and weekly charts for gold following its recent move higher, which appears to be driven by the meltdown in the crypto space and not the ongoing raging inflation and geopolitical worries. The charts speak for themselves, and the question is whether the precious metal can maintain the bullish momentum. The volume price analysis signals on the daily confirm a slowdown and correction with the key resistance levels on the weekly confirming.

Volume price analysis signals appear across all markets and timeframes. In this recording, David & I consider these on the DXY, the Indices, and the triple-levered semi-conductor ETF, the SOXL. However, as we explain, it is essential to view vpa not only in multiple timeframes but also in the context of support and resistance, which is where the Quantum indicators can help the accumulation and distribution indicator, particularly which not only marks these key levels on the chart but also confirms their relative strength. It does this by thickening the line each time it is touched, giving us a clear visual picture of the effort required to break through the levels.
Using Support and Resistance in Multiple Timeframes on DXY, Indices, and SOXL
Support and resistance levels are essential for traders. They mark where price often pauses, reverses, or breaks. Using them across multiple timeframes adds depth. Higher timeframes reveal major levels. Lower timeframes time entries. This alignment creates high-probability setups. Volume...
