Terrific Price Action on the US Indices as the US Election Is Finally Settled
Terrific price action swept US indices as the election settled. Uncertainty lifted. Markets reacted with strong momentum. Indices rallied sharply. This created clear trends and opportunities.
Volume Price Analysis in Post-Election Moves
Volume price analysis (VPA) captured the action perfectly. High volume on up candles showed buying conviction. No selling pressure at highs—pure accumulation. Quantum Trend Monitor on NinjaTrader stayed aligned bullish. This confirmed sustained rally strength.
Why Election Settlement Drove the Action
Election resolution removed overhang. Investors bought risk assets. S&P 500, Dow, and Nasdaq surged. Volume spikes validated the move. Low volume pullbacks offered entries. Quantum Accumulation/Distribution indicator highlighted building phases early.
Trading Lessons from the Rally
Post-election rallies reward trend followers. Wait for volume confirmation on breakouts. Trail stops on high volume continuation. Anna Coulling's VPA approach turns event-driven volatility into disciplined trades. Quantum tools make spotting conviction reliable.
This was terrific price action indeed. Quantum indicators helped navigate the surge...
In the first part of the US day trading session I focus on the US 30 which is a great way to get started trading indices as it does not require a specialist futures brokers account and moves in the same way. And here I also explain the importance of levels and flows which define market sentiment as it moves between risk-on and risk-off in this and related markets. Levels can be defined in many ways and the most common are off course from a price based perspective, but here I also use volume and the Camarilla Levels indicator.

Wall Street Pauses After Explosive Rally as Bonds, Risk Currencies, and Equity Markets Reacted to the News
Wall Street pauses after an explosive rally. Markets digest the surge. Bonds, risk currencies, and equities all reacted. This intermarket dance reveals sentiment shifts. Traders watch for the next move. Wall Street was in sombre mood following the explosive move the previous day, where risk on sentiment dominated. Equity markets surged and risk currency sold off strongly and reflected equally in bond markets and yields.
Why the Pause After the Rally
Explosive rallies often end in pauses. Price pushes higher fast. But momentum fades. Volume price analysis (VPA) spots this—high price on low volume signals weakness. Quantum Trend Monitor on NinjaTrader shows alignment fading. Consolidation follows.
Intermarket Reactions: Bonds, Risk Currencies, and Equities
Bonds sold off as yields rose. This supported dollar strength. Risk currencies like AUD or NZD weakened initially. Equities paused—profit-taking emerged. VPA confirms relational flows—high volume in bonds correlates with equity caution.
VPA Insights During the...
US index futures reacted to more news from the Trump Twitter handle which created the price action we have seen so many times before. A rapid move in one direction followed by an equally dramatic move in the opposite direction not long after. It's what we call the 'souffle' effect for this reason, and is one to watch out for in all markets as it offers terrific two way price action in a relatively short space of time. And of course, all confirmed with volume price analysis and the indicators.
