Where to Start Your Forex Trading Day?
Starting your forex trading day the right way sets you up for success. Many traders jump in blindly. This leads to noise and missed opportunities. Think of it like fishing. You need a sonar system to scan the ocean. Find where the shoals of fish are—then cast your line.
The Quantum Trading tools and indicators are your sonar system on the market, helping you to search out the best trading opportunities throughout the session, and as with all the indicators, not simply helping you to choose the best trade, but once in, helping to keep you in and get out at the right time.
Setup Your Indicators Like a Sonar Scanner
Begin with a clean workspace on MT5 or NinjaTrader. Load the Quantum currency dashboard. This includes the currency strength indicator, matrix, array, and heatmap. They scan the market relationally. Strong currencies appear bright. Weak ones fade. This reveals "shoals"—high-probability pairs.
Scan for the Best "Fishing Spots"
The currency...
When currencies are moving in the same direction expect congestion as there is no force driving the two apart. When there is divergence, a trend develops and all is revealed on the currency strength indicator, whether for NinjaTrader, MT4, MT5 or TradingView.

Understanding how markets relate to one another can help both traders and investors. Volume price analysis and our Quantum tools make this a lot easier and in this video we consider how moves in the Japanese yen were a precursor to yesterday's dramatic market sell-off.
Trading with Intermarket Analysis
Intermarket analysis is a powerful approach for traders. It studies relationships between asset classes: stocks, bonds, commodities, and currencies. These markets are interconnected. Moves in one influence others. Understanding this reveals broader sentiment. Volume price analysis (VPA) confirms conviction across markets.
Core Intermarket Relationships
Key links drive trading insights:
Bonds and Stocks: Bond prices fall (yields rise) in risk-on—equities rally. Yields drop in risk-off—stocks weaken.
USD and Commodities: Strong USD pressures gold/oil lower (priced in dollars). Weak USD boosts them.
Oil and Commodity Currencies: High oil lifts CAD (Canada exporter). Low oil weakens it.
Gold and Safe-Havens: Risk-off surges gold and JPY/CHF.
Equities and Risk Currencies: Stocks up favors AUD/NZD.
These correlations shift but persist long-term.
Why...
Trading success is all about understanding risk and flows as money seeks low risk low rewards in safe haven assets or higher risk higher rewards in risk assets. And all of this risk sentiment is revealed in related markets for forex traders.

As with stock traders and investors who analyze the stock, it's sector and fundamentals before investing, the same is true for forex traders. So it pays to get to know your currency well, and here Anna explains what you need to focus on using the Australian dollar as an example.

Trade Bitcoin Using Volume Price Analysis on the TradingView Platform
Trading Bitcoin with volume price analysis (VPA) on TradingView offers a clear edge. VPA combines price action with trading volume. This reveals true market intent. High volume on up candles shows buying conviction. Low volume warns of weakness or traps.
The volume price analysis approach can be applied to any instrument and any market. In this video we focus on Bitcoin using the TradingView platform and in the faster timeframes and supported by the Quantum Trading tools and indicators.
Applying VPA to Bitcoin Charts
Bitcoin is volatile and sentiment-driven. On TradingView, add volume bars to candlestick charts. Look for accumulation at lows with rising volume. Distribution at highs signals selling pressure. Divergence between price and volume often precedes reversals. Quantum-style custom scripts enhance VPA visuals on TradingView.
Practical Tips for BTC Traders
Focus on key levels like support/resistance. Confirm breakouts with high volume. Use multiple timeframes—daily for trend, lower for entries. Anna Coulling's VPA methodology applies...
In these tricky market conditions, it's important to use a combination of time and non time based charts which is why we developed some specialist indicators Renko indicators here at Quantumtrading.
The chart featured is the version for MT5 and shows this morning's strong move in the gbp/jpy currency pair. However, the indicator can be applied to any instrument made available by your broker. There is also a version for MT4 and Ninjatrader. In addition, the value of the renko brick can either be set manually or you can follow the atr value suggested by the indicator.
In this example, the currency pair began the move lower after the start of the London session in a downtrend that was relatively smooth and free from pullbacks as we can see on the chart. By applying our other unique indicators such as trends, trend monitor, support and resistance and pivots we can see when the move is likely to come to an end.
