Getting into a Trend Using the Currency Strength Indicator
Getting into a trend early gives traders an edge. The currency strength indicator helps spot these opportunities. It ranks currencies by relative performance. Strong currencies rise to the top. Weak ones fall to the bottom. This reveals emerging trends quickly. In this session from the London forex session we explain how to use the currency strength indicator to help you get into a trend.
How the Indicator Signals Trends
The indicator updates in real time. Look for sustained extremes—currencies staying strong or weak over sessions. Pair the strongest with the weakest for momentum plays. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms entry—high volume on moves shows conviction.
Practical Steps for Trend Entries
Select pairs from extremes on the indicator. Confirm with higher timeframe alignment. Enter on pullbacks with volume support. Quantum Trading's indicator on MT5 or NinjaTrader includes alerts for timely action. Avoid middling pairs in choppy markets.

There was only one currency in focus this morning as the country goes to the polls today on one of the tightest general elections we have seen for decades. Ahead of the London forex open, the GBP was being bought but as so often occurs at session crossovers, the trend higher on the GBP/JPY was reversed with the pair moving lower. The volatility indicator was much in evidence as was the volume point of control across the various timeframes, and coupled with the price based support and resistance indicator and accumulation and distribution indicators, defined clear levels of support and resistance.

The first three days have delivered a perfect start to the trading week and one we explain in the video where the GBP is once again in focus ahead of the election next week.

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.

A Morning for the Volatility Indicator and the Volume Point of Control!
A morning of high volatility hit the forex markets. Trade talks between US and China drove the action. Uncertainty sparked sharp moves. Majors like EUR/USD and GBP/USD swung wildly. This created opportunities—and traps.
With the forex markets in a febrile state as trade talks between the US and China continue to rumble on, it was a morning when the volatility indicator and volume point of control indicators from Quantum Trading were much in evidence. And not only on the currency markets but also on Globex for the indices, which reflect this ebb and flow in risk sentiment, which in turn is mirrored in risk assets and risk currencies.
Volatility Indicator in Action
The Quantum volatility indicator signalled early. Spikes highlighted expansion phases. High readings warned of big swings. Traders prepared for momentum. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirmed—high volume on moves showed conviction. Low-volume spikes revealed false breakouts.

Using the Currency Dashboard Indicators in the European and London Sessions
The European and London forex sessions offer high liquidity. This creates clear relational moves. Quantum's currency dashboard indicators shine here. The four tools—currency strength indicator, currency array, currency heatmap, and currency matrix—work together. They reveal sentiment and opportunities fast.
An earlier session than usual which began at 7am and through into the London forex session at 8am, and as always a time when the volatility indicator works overtime as the market crossover brings the market makers in to feed. Rather like sharks waiting for the shoals of small fish as feeding time approaches! And we were not disappointed as we focused on the GBP in particular along with the euro.
