As the London forex session gets underway, we start with several of the forex specific indicators, such as the currency strength indicator, the currency array indicator forand the currency matrix. In this video we are using the MT5 trading platform, and then move on to consider some of the basic principles of volume price analysis applied to the forex markets and using Wyckoff's three laws.

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
Combine for deeper insight:

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.

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.

More Great Trading on the Aussie Dollar and the British Pound
More great trading opportunities emerge on the Aussie dollar and British pound. Both currencies show strong moves. AUD benefits from commodity flows. GBP reacts to UK data and sentiment. Traders find high-probability setups across pairs.
In the London forex session we show you how to apply the Quantum Trading indicators to trading forex using the MT4/MT5 and NinjaTrader platforms.
Volume Price Analysis Highlights
Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms the action. High volume on up candles in AUD pairs shows buying conviction. GBP pairs reveal distribution or accumulation at key levels. Quantum currency strength indicator ranks both prominently during active sessions.
Practical Trading Insights
Focus on AUD/USD or GBP/USD for direct plays. Crosses like AUD/JPY or GBP/AUD add relational edges. Anna Coulling's VPA approach with Quantum tools spots continuation or reversals early. These currencies deliver consistent lessons and profits.
More great trading awaits on AUD and GBP. Use Quantum indicators for clear, confident decisions in these dynamic...
