https://youtu.be/DhnFdRwCy6s There Are Risk-On Days – and Then There Are These: An Explosive Day for Currencies Some risk-on days deliver steady gains. Others explode with volatility. Today was the latter—an explosive day for currencies. Risk appetite surged. Commodity and growth-linked pairs rallied sharply. Safe-havens weakened. Traders captured big moves across sessions. This was a red-letter day in every respect with positive news about a vaccine for COVID driving the markets into a frenzy as risk on dominated for much of the day. Leading the way were the yen currency pairs in the yen matrix, surging higher in all timeframes and mirroring the price action in equity markets. And of course, all confirmed through the prism of volume price analysis. What Made Today Explosive Positive sentiment dominated. Equities climbed. Growth data or policy hints fueled optimism. Commodity currencies led—AUD, NZD, CAD strengthened. Yen and Swiss franc fell as safe-haven demand faded. Crosses like AUD/JPY or GBP/JPY delivered massive pips.

Watch out for changes in sentiment at the session crossovers

Watch out for changes in sentiment at the session crossovers

by Quantum Trading Comment Closed
In this video we explain the importance of session crossovers, what they are and why they occur, but more importantly what to look out for at these times as a forex trader. Whilst the forex market is often presented as a twenty-four hour market which technically it is, the times at which a major trading centre joins or takes over from one which closes, effectively breaks these up into four hour or eight hour periods of trading. At such times, the market makers are active and what we often see as here in this example, is a strong trend in one session then weakens or reverses and in this case is it the GBP/AUD which had a fantastic trend higher during the London session, only to reverse in the US session later. https://youtu.be/8mRH8f2bvjg...

by Quantum Trading Comment Closed
