As the London forex market gets underway, equity markets signal a reversal in sentiment along with risk currency flows such as the AUD/JPY. It is interesting to note the currency strength indicator on the daily timeframe with the commodity currencies heavily oversold and risk currencies overbought, so setting up for some excellent longer term trading opportunities for the yen currency pairs.

Using the Currency Matrix and Currency Array Together for Forex Trading
The Quantum Currency Matrix and Currency Array are two complementary tools. They provide a complete relational view of the forex market. The Matrix shows pair bias in a grid. The Array visualizes momentum as steep lines. Used together, they reveal sentiment, trends, and opportunities clearly. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms signals with conviction.
The Currency Matrix: Relational Bias at a Glance
The Matrix grids all major pairs. Cells color-code performance:
Green: Bullish bias (first currency strong).
Red: Bearish bias.
Intensity reflects strength.
This highlights relational extremes. Strong USD weakens all USD pairs (red cells). Traders spot sentiment fast—risk-on or off.
The Currency Array: Momentum and Trend Strength
The Array displays pairs as lines fanning from center. Steep lines = strong momentum. Flat = congestion. This shows trend steepness visually. Long green runs = sustained buying. Deep red = selling pressure.
Switch timeframes easily—daily for trends, lower for entries.
How They Work Together

Terrific Moves Across All the Markets as Oil Collapses
Terrific moves swept across all markets as oil collapsed. Sharp declines in crude triggered chain reactions. Equities fell on energy sector weakness. Currencies shifted with risk-off flows. Safe-havens like yen and Swiss franc gained. Some great trading action across the markets, and with volume price analysis and the Quantum Trading tools and indicators helping to get you in and keep you in.
Volume Price Analysis Insights
Volume price analysis (VPA) captured the chaos perfectly. Heavy selling volume in oil confirmed distribution. Related markets showed correlated weakness. Quantum indicators on NinjaTrader or MT5 highlighted intermarket links quickly.
Trading Opportunities in Collapse
Oil collapses create terrific opportunities. Short energy-related assets or buy safe-havens. Watch for exhaustion volume at lows. Anna Coulling's VPA approach with Quantum tools turns volatility into profits.
Events like this reveal market connections. Use Quantum currency and commodity indicators to navigate big moves confidently.
OPEC: Its Role and Impact on Forex Currencies

The Japanese yen was much in demand in early trading in the London forex session, as overnight concerns of the Chinese virus sent Far East and Asia equity markets lower. This followed through into Europe and London with markets falling. As a result the commodity currencies were much in focus on the currency strength indicator and currency matrix, followed by pound buying later in the session.

Forex Markets Quiet Ahead of US Holiday But Plenty of Trading Lessons!
Forex markets often turn quiet ahead of US holidays. Liquidity drops as traders step away. Volume thins out. This creates deceptive calm. But quiet sessions still offer plenty of trading lessons for patient observers.
A quiet session with the US markets closed for Thanksgiving, but nevertheless an interesting forex session with the currency strength indicator and the volume point of control indicator in focus.
Key Lessons from Low-Volume Periods
Volume price analysis (VPA) shines in quiet markets. Low volume on moves signals weakness. False breakouts become obvious. Wait for confirmation—high volume only when liquidity returns. Quantum currency strength indicator highlights subtle shifts even in thin conditions.
Practical Takeaways
Avoid forcing trades in holiday lulls. Use the time to review charts. Spot relational extremes on the matrix. Anna Coulling's VPA approach teaches discipline—quiet markets reward those who wait for real conviction.

Step 1: Start with the Currency Strength Indicator
In the London forex session we explain how to apply some of the currency trading tools and indicators for MT5 and Ninjatrader on time based charts, before moving to the renko indicator with the trend monitor and trends indicators.
The currency in focus was the euro across the complex with strong moves for the pound and the US dollar.
The Currency Strength Indicator ranks major currencies live. Strong ones rise to the top. Weak fall to the bottom. Extremes highlight opportunities:
Top currency vs bottom = strong trend potential.
Sustained extremes = momentum trade.
Fading extremes = reversal setup.
This is your starting point—scan for relational leaders fast.
Step 2: Confirm with the Currency Matrix and Heatmap
The Matrix grids all pairs. It shows cross-pair bias. Bold colors flag momentum. The Heatmap adds intensity—deep green/red cells signal active pairs.
Look for alignment:
Strong currency in CSI = green cells in matrix row.
This relational confluence identifies high-conviction trades.

Best Euro Pairs to Trade in the London Session
The London forex session is prime time for euro pairs. It overlaps with major European markets. Liquidity surges from 8:00 AM GMT. European data releases drive volatility. This creates clear opportunities in EUR crosses and majors. Traders spot high-probability setups fast.
All the currency indicators working in harmony to identify opportunities for trading the euro at the start of the London forex session.
Why London Session Excels for Euro Pairs
London handles massive volume. Eurozone countries join early. ECB hints or PMI data spike moves. GBP and CHF add relational action. Volume price analysis (VPA) shines—high volume on spikes shows conviction. Low volume warns of traps.
Quantum currency strength indicator ranks EUR live. Matrix reveals cross dynamics.
Top Euro Pairs for London Trading
Focus on these for liquidity and momentum:
EUR/USD: Most traded pair. Fed/ECB divergence drives it. Tight spreads.
EUR/GBP: Pure Eurozone vs UK play. Policy differences create trends.
EUR/JPY: Yen safe-haven vs euro growth. Risk sentiment...
Once again it is the power of the volatility indicator which is revealed as the forex markets exploded into life ahead of the London open, with the Japanese Yen and the Swiss Franc selling off sharply, with equally strong buying of the commodity currencies. With the volatility indicator signalling a move outside the average true range, and with indices also spiking them reversing, a strong reversal then took place as expected.
