Using Camarilla Levels to Identify Key Support & Resistance
Camarilla levels are a classic intraday tool for traders. They generate daily support and resistance zones from the previous session's range. This helps identify where price may pause, reverse, or break. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms conviction at these levels—high volume shows real interest.
An extract of our day trading the US futures session with a look at the fundamental releases that are becoming increasingly dramatic as coronavirus continues to dominate with particular focus on the YM emini, which is the futures contract for the Dow Jones using charts from the Ninjatrader platform.

Inner Levels (R2/S2): Core range—price often consolidates here.
Outer Levels (R3/R4, S3/S4): Breakout or reversal zones—high activity expected.
Price respecting levels =...

Day Trading Using Multiple Time Frames: How Higher Timeframes Determine Opportunities on Faster Charts
Day trading is fast-paced. Decisions come quickly. Many traders focus only on lower timeframes (1-minute or 5-minute charts). This leads to noise and false signals. Multiple timeframes solve this. Higher timeframes provide the big-picture bias. Lower timeframes offer precise entries. This alignment creates high-probability opportunities. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms conviction across frames.
Day trading using multiple time frames with a focus on how the higher time frames can determine the trading opportunities on the faster charts.
Why Multiple Timeframes Are Essential for Day Traders
Single timeframe trading misses context. A 5-minute chart looks bullish. But daily shows downtrend. You fight the flow. Higher timeframes (daily, 4-hour) reveal the primary trend. Lower timeframes (15-minute, 5-minute, tick) time entries within it.
This "top-down" approach filters noise. Trade with momentum, not against it.
How Higher Timeframes Determine Faster Chart Opportunities
Higher timeframes set the stage:

Camarilla Indicator Signals Reversal on AUD/USD
The Camarilla indicator signals reversal on AUD/USD clearly. Price approaches key levels. A pivot forms. This hints at turning momentum. Traders watch for confirmation in this commodity pair.
How Camarilla Spots the Reversal
Camarilla generates daily pivots. R4 or L4 extremes often act as reversal zones. Price rejecting these with volume shows exhaustion. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms—high volume on opposing candles validates the turn. Quantum Camarilla on MT5 or NinjaTrader highlights levels visually.
Trading the Signal
AUD/USD reversal favors counter-trend entries. Wait for the candle to close beyond the pivot. High volume support strengthens the case. Anna Coulling's VPA approach avoids traps—volume must align. Quantum tools make spotting reversals reliable.
Camarilla signals like this reward prepared traders. Combine the Camarilla levels indicator with VPA for confident AUD/USD reversals. Quantum indicators turn pivots into high-probability setups. Stay alert for commodity-driven turns.

In this morning's forex session, David and I started with a look at the EUR/CAD. This is a pair I highlighted a few days ago on my site. It is an interesting confluence of the fundamental, the technical, and the relational. We explain this in great detail in the Quantum Trading forex education program.

Aussie Dollar and Gold in Focus in the London Session
The Aussie dollar and gold take center stage in the London session. Both are commodity-linked assets. AUD reacts to risk sentiment. Gold often moves inversely to USD strength. Traders watch them for early clues.
In this morning's session once again we focus on some of the key concepts of support and resistance using the accumulation and distribution indicator for NinjaTrader and the dynamic support and resistance indicator for MT4/5. The AUD/USD provides some good examples from the faster to the slower timeframes as the pair tests a strong level of support in the session on the 60 minute chart.
One of the many trading concepts we also discuss is using multiple timeframes to identify levels in higher and lower timeframes. Finally we also look at support and resistance from the aspect of overbought and oversold with the currency strength indicator for NinjaTrader.
