Using Quantum's ACD and Camarilla Indicators for Support and Resistance Levels
Support and resistance levels are essential for traders. They mark where price often pauses, reverses, or breaks. Quantum Trading offers two powerful indicators for this: the Accumulation/Distribution (ACD) and extended Camarilla Levels. Used together, they provide deeper insight into market structure. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms conviction at these levels.
In the London forex trading session we take a look at some recent trades and in particular the levels of key areas using both price and volume. The dynamic support and resistance indicator delivers these on the MT4/5 platform along with the Camarilla levels indicator.
The Accumulation/Distribution (ACD) Indicator
The ACD indicator tracks buying and selling pressure. It uses volume and price range. Rising ACD with price = accumulation (buyers building). Falling ACD = distribution (sellers unloading). Divergence warns of reversals.
In support/resistance:
High ACD at lows = strong support (buyers absorbing).
Low ACD at highs = weak resistance (distribution).

Here at Quantumtrading, we understand that trading can be challenging, but by combing our Time-Adjusted Renko, (exclusive to Tradingview) and Camarilla levels, we were able to spot a great trade in the cad/jpy pair. The Renko helped us identify a potential entry point once the price had moved away from the volume point of control. We then used the Camarilla pivots to determine where the price might pause. Our Camarilla indicator provides traders and investors with different levels across timeframes. For charts up to, but not including, the hourly chart, the levels are refreshed daily. For the hourly to daily chart, they're valid for the week, and for the weekly and monthly charts, they're valid for the entire month.
When using the Camarilla indicator, it's important to keep in mind that the third and fourth levels are the most significant regarding the price movement pausing or reversing. Having different levels across timeframes allows us to have more specific targets and objectives.

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.

Using the VPOC to Trade Stocks Like PLUG: Volume Validates Breakaways
The Volume Point of Control (VPOC) is a key tool for stock traders. It marks the price with the highest traded volume in a session. This reveals "fair value"—where most activity occurred. Price often returns here. In volatile stocks like PLUG (Plug Power), VPOC spots support, resistance, and breakaways. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms conviction.
The recent price action on PLUG Power is a great example of how the volume point of control along with volume can help to validate a breakaway trade. On this occasion, it resulted in a nice waterfall lower. We now have a nice reversal on the chart with upside levels clearly marked by the Camarilla indicator as Plug attempts to regain the vpoc.
What Is VPOC and Why It Matters in Stocks
VPOC comes from volume profile. It shows institutional focus. High volume at VPOC = strong acceptance. Traders use it for levels. Quantum VPOC indicator on NinjaTrader...
Ahead of the BOC interest rate decision, we considered the Canadian dollar which can often produce a strong trend. The question is then which pair to select to trade and on this occasion, it was the eur/cad where by using the hourly volume point of control and Camarilla pivots on the faster time frames and Renko chart two entry points were highlighted for the move lower.

Plenty of Great Trades In the Yen, US Dollar, and Swiss Franc as Risk-On Dominates
Risk-on sentiment has dominated recent sessions. Equities rally. Growth optimism prevails. This weakens safe-haven currencies. The Japanese yen (JPY), US dollar (USD in some contexts), and Swiss franc (CHF) feel the pressure. Traders spot plenty of great trades in related pairs. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms conviction—high volume on moves shows real momentum.
Plenty of great trades in the yen, US dollar and Swiss franc as risk on dominates following the FED and ahead of the BOE and ECB decisions as we come to the end of the trading year, US markets determined to end the year on a high!
Risk-On Impact on Safe-Havens
In risk-on environments, investors chase returns. They sell safe-havens:
Japanese Yen (JPY): Classic safe-haven. Weakens sharply—carry trades unwind reverse.
Swiss Franc (CHF): Similar safe-haven flows. Falls vs risk currencies.
US Dollar (USD): Mixed—reserve status supports, but risk-on favors commodities over USD.
Pairs like AUD/JPY, NZD/JPY, or...
In this segment from the forex trading session this morning we focus on the currency majors and explain how to use the spot markets and futures markets to identify flows, and also reveal different relationships using volume price analysis.

Forex trading success depends on one key decision. Choose the right currency pair. Focus on those with strong trends. This maximizes reward while minimizing noise. Random pairs lead to chop and frustration.
Forex trading success is all about choosing the right currency pair and the starting point is the currency strength indicator. Here strength and weakness in the individual currencies is revealed simply and clearly which is why we call it out sonar on the market. Like the device trawlers use to locate shoals of fish, so we use it to identify reversals and strong trends in the building blocks of the markets - the currencies themselves.
However, when a currency is rising or falling strongly, this does not mean it is doing this across the complex, and so we are constantly looking for the a strong move for the counter currency in the opposite direction. So if...
