If you're looking for a volatile currency pair to trade look no further than the GBP/JPY as I take a look at where it might be heading next.
The "dragon" in trading circles (a fun metaphor for powerful, trending market momentum—often fierce and unpredictable like a Chinese dragon) has been coiling and breathing fire lately. But where is it heading next as of January 13, 2026?
Current Market Snapshot
Global equities are mixed but leaning bullish early 2026. S&P 500 and Nasdaq hover near records on AI/tech optimism, but with caution from Fed watch and geopolitical noise. Forex sees USD softening (DXY ~102-103), commodity currencies (AUD, CAD) gaining on risk-on flows, and safe-havens (JPY, CHF) quiet.
The dragon looks headed higher in risk assets short-term—continued equity grind up, USD weakness supporting commodities/gold. But coiled for potential fire-breath downside if inflation data surprises hot or risk-off triggers hit.
Volume Price Analysis (VPA) View
VPA shows sustained buying in indices—rising prices with steady (not climactic) volume = conviction,...
Trading reversals require your stop loss to be set wider to allow for the congestion phase to develop before the trend begins. So this is not for everyone, but if you have the patience, the pay off is greater as you are getting into the trend before it begins so the payout is greater. It's all about risk and returns.

The forex market is one of mean reversion wich currencies constantly moving from one level to another, congestion, trend and congestion, with reversals from overbought to oversold and back again. All defined with levels and flow.

Candles and candle patterns are one of the five pillars of volume price analysis and together with a currency dashboard can help to identify and validate reversal trading opportunities.

Waiting for Reversal Signals on EUR/NZD
EUR/NZD shows signs of potential reversal. The pair has trended steadily. Now extremes appear. Traders wait patiently for confirmation. Volume price analysis (VPA) guides the timing.
Patience is the key when waiting for reversal signals, particularly after a sharp move lower. In this excerpt from this morning's forex webinar the eur/nzd pair entered into consolidation trading between two key levels.
Key VPA Reversal Signals
Look for divergence. Price makes new extremes on low volume. This warns of exhaustion. High volume at turning points signals stopping action. Quantum Accumulation/Distribution indicator highlights weakening momentum.
Relational Context with Quantum Tools
The currency strength indicator ranks EUR and NZD. Overstretched rankings hint at turns. Currency matrix shows cross-pair dynamics. Quantum tools on MT5 or NinjaTrader make these visible quickly. Anna Coulling's VPA approach waits for volume support.
Practical Waiting Strategy
Avoid forcing trades. Wait for candle close with volume confirmation. High volume reversal candles offer entries. Low volume extremes often trap early movers.

Market reversals happen for many reasons including fundamental news or a change in sentiment. However, one reversal that consistently happens in the forex market is designed to trap traders on the wrong side of the market. It happens at session cross overs and in particular at the London open. This section from a recent webinar explains.
