As London Opens, Yen Buyers Reflect Risk Appetite
The London forex session often sets the tone for risk sentiment. Yen buyers stepping in early signal risk-off mood. Safe-haven demand for JPY rises when equities fall or uncertainty grows. This reflects trader caution. Plenty of yen buying across the complex as risk sentiment weakens following the reaction to the overnight news of progress in finding a vaccine for COVID-19 and displayed clearly on the currency array indicator in multiple timeframes. Risk currencies are much in evidence and one of the many key topics I cover in the complete forex education program which you can find here at https://quantumtradingeducation.com and the currency array indicator at https://quantumtrading.com

Two volume price analysis lessons in one here on the daily chart for the GBP/JPY. First we see rising price and falling volume as the rally of late March stalls as a result. This is an anomaly as we should expect to see rising prices supported with rising volume if the trend is to develop with real momentum. Then we move into the congestion phase. Note the fall in volume as price action narrows and trades around the volume point of control. Now all we need to do is wait and be patient. The breakout will come in due course, and be confirmed as genuine or false with volume.

A Walk Through of the Currency Dashboard for Trading Forex
Forex trading can feel overwhelming with 28 major pairs updating constantly. The Quantum Currency Dashboard simplifies this.

Traders spot sentiment, trends, and opportunities fast. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms signals with volume conviction.

How Many Pips Does AUD/USD Move in a Typical Day?
The Aussie dollar is one of the risk currencies driving the forex market as the London forex session gets underway.
AUD/USD is a popular commodity-linked pair. Traders often ask about its daily movement in pips. The average daily range varies with volatility. But historical and recent data give a clear picture.
Typical Daily Pip Movement
AUD/USD's average daily range (high to low) is typically 70-100 pips in normal conditions. This is moderate among majors—less volatile than GBP/JPY but more than EUR/CHF.
Quiet Periods: 50-70 pips (low news, ranging markets).
Active Periods: 80-120 pips (London/NY overlap, data releases).
High Volatility: 150+ pips (major news like RBA decisions or China data).
Recent 2025-2026 data shows ~80-90 pips average. This aligns with long-term trends.
Factors Influencing Daily Range
Commodity Prices: Iron ore or China demand spikes lift volatility.
Risk Sentiment: Risk-on boosts AUD—wider ranges.
News Events: RBA, US data, or geopolitics amplify moves.
Session Overlap: London/NY highest liquidity—biggest swings.
