Sessions crossovers arrive daily and the big one is always when the London forex market gets underway with the deepest liquidity. This is when the market makers are at their most active from 8am UK time with volatility, reversals and congestion following. Some of the traps are on high volume as the market makers participate, others on low volume, but all are clearly signalled with volume price analysis and the volatility indicator for MT4, MT5, NinjaTrader or Tradestation.

Watch Out for More Traps on Volatility and the News!
Volatility and news go hand in hand in forex trading. Releases create sharp moves. But they also set traps. False breakouts catch impatient traders. This is common in GBP/USD during European data. Here it's the GBP/USD as European data is released with the PMI data for France and Germany with the volatility indicator for MT5 and NinjaTrader signalling this clearly in all timeframes.
European PMI Data and GBP/USD Volatility
European PMI data for France and Germany drives early action. Strong figures boost risk sentiment. Weak ones favor caution. GBP/USD reacts fast. Volatility spikes at release. But not all moves last.
How Traps Form on News
News spikes often lack volume support. Price breaks levels. Traders chase. But low volume reveals weakness. Reversal follows. Volume price analysis (VPA) spots this—high price on low volume = trap.

Many of the currency market pairs remain rangebound and trading in congestion ranges as risk on and risk off oscillates with the ebb and flow of pandemic news daily, with fundamental data taking a secondary role.

The VIX index is one of the most powerful indicators, revealing as it does, fear and greed in equal measure and based on the balance of call and put options, which makes it a key chart for all index traders.

Where to Start Your Forex Trading Day?
Starting your forex trading day the right way sets you up for success. Many traders jump in blindly. This leads to noise and missed opportunities. Think of it like fishing. You need a sonar system to scan the ocean. Find where the shoals of fish are—then cast your line.
The Quantum Trading tools and indicators are your sonar system on the market, helping you to search out the best trading opportunities throughout the session, and as with all the indicators, not simply helping you to choose the best trade, but once in, helping to keep you in and get out at the right time.
Setup Your Indicators Like a Sonar Scanner
Begin with a clean workspace on MT5 or NinjaTrader. Load the Quantum currency dashboard. This includes the currency strength indicator, matrix, array, and heatmap. They scan the market relationally. Strong currencies appear bright. Weak ones fade. This reveals "shoals"—high-probability pairs.
Scan for the Best "Fishing Spots"
The currency...
When currencies are moving in the same direction expect congestion as there is no force driving the two apart. When there is divergence, a trend develops and all is revealed on the currency strength indicator, whether for NinjaTrader, MT4, MT5 or TradingView.

Best Camarilla Indicator for Emini Trading
The "best" Camarilla indicator for emini trading (ES, NQ, YM) is subjective—it depends on platform, features (alerts, multi-levels, auto-calc), and integration with volume price analysis (VPA). Camarilla pivots generate 8 daily levels (4 support S1-S4, 4 resistance R1-R4) from previous range. They excel for intraday—R3/R4 for breakouts, L3/L4 for reversals, middle for ranges.
The Quantum Camarilla indicator was once again a key indicator in yesterday's dramatic market price action picking out both intraday and longer-term levels for the NQ emini.
Top recommendations (2026):
Quantum Camarilla Levels Indicator (Top Pick for VPA Users)
Platforms: NinjaTrader 7/8, MT4/MT5, TradingView.
Features: Extended to 6 levels (R1-R6/S1-S6), customizable, alerts, clean visuals. Integrates seamlessly with Quantum VPA tools (Trend Monitor, VPOC).
Why best for emini: Precise for fast markets—R4/S4 as key breakouts. Volume confirmation aligns perfectly.
Cost: Part of Quantum suite (subscription or one-time).
