Why VPA Excels at London Open
London handles massive volume. European data releases cluster early. Institutional flows build. Price gaps or spikes appear. Many traders chase—FOMO drives entries. But VPA spots reality. High volume continuation validates momentum. Low volume spikes signal false moves—professionals trapping retail.
Quantum indicators on MT5 or NinjaTrader enhance VPA. Currency strength ranks live. Matrix shows relational extremes.

Understanding Volume in Forex: Why Tick Data Is Our Proxy (Football Stadium Analogy)
Forex markets are decentralized. No single exchange tracks every trade like stocks or futures. This raises a question: How do we measure volume? The answer is tick data—a reliable proxy for activity. Volume price analysis (VPA) uses this to reveal market intent. High ticks show participation. Low ticks signal quiet periods.
The Football Stadium Analogy
Imagine a football stadium from the outside. You can't see inside. But you hear the crowd.
Stadium Quiet: Low noise. Little happening—few goals, boring game. This is low tick volume. Market inactive. Price barely moves. No conviction.
Stadium Roaring: Loud cheers. Constant excitement—goals, near misses. This is high tick volume. Intense activity. Price swings with momentum. Professionals driving action.
Ticks are price changes (up or down). Each tick = a trade executed. High ticks = roaring crowd—real participation. Low ticks = quiet stadium—no momentum.
Why Tick Volume Works as Proxy
Brokers aggregate tick data from liquidity providers. It...

How to Use Higher and Lower Timeframes to Identify Trends
Multiple timeframes are essential for accurate trend identification. Higher timeframes reveal the big picture. Lower timeframes provide precise timing. This alignment reduces false signals. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms trend strength across frames. Quantum indicators make the process visual and reliable.
In this video from the webclass of the London forex session Anna exlains how to use higher and lower timeframes to help identify trends.
Higher Timeframes for Overall Trend Bias
Start with daily or weekly charts. These show the primary trend. Look for sustained moves with volume support. High volume on up candles = bullish bias. Low volume extremes warn of potential reversals.
Higher frames filter noise. They prevent counter-trend trades. Quantum Trend Monitor on NinjaTrader or MT5 aligns direction clearly—green for uptrends, red for down.
Lower Timeframes for Entry and Exit Timing
Switch to hourly, 15-minute, or lower charts. These break down the higher timeframe candle. See inside the move—volume flows, pullbacks, or momentum surges.

Fundamental Drivers of the EUR/CAD Pair
EUR/CAD is a fascinating cross pair. It pits the euro (EUR) against the Canadian dollar (CAD). No USD influence means pure relational dynamics. Fundamentals from both sides drive moves. Commodity links and policy differences create volatility. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms reactions—high volume on swings shows conviction. Analysis of the EUR/CAD, the volume point of control and Wyckoff's three laws
Euro-Side Drivers (EUR)
The euro reflects Eurozone health:
ECB Monetary Policy: Rate hikes strengthen EUR. Cuts or dovish tone weaken it. Inflation target (2%) guides decisions.
Economic Data: Strong PMI, GDP, or low unemployment boost EUR. Weak figures pressure it.
Political Stability: Fiscal or election risks (e.g., debt issues) weigh on sentiment.
VPA spots conviction—high volume EUR rallies post-hawkish ECB validate strength.
Canadian Dollar Drivers (CAD)
CAD is commodity-sensitive:
Oil Prices: Canada major exporter. Rising WTI/Brent lifts CAD. Falling oil pressures it lower.
Bank of Canada (BoC) Policy: Hikes attract capital—CAD up. Cuts weaken it.
Global Growth: China demand (trade...
