How Do I Know What Tick Speed to Set My Tick Charts To – Do I Guess?
Tick charts are a scalper's favorite. They form bars based on a fixed number of trades (ticks), not time. This reveals pure momentum. But choosing the right tick size feels tricky for beginners. Do you guess? No—the Quantum TickSpeedometer solves this. It measures tick velocity in real time. This guides optimal settings and trading decisions.
No Guessing Needed: The TickSpeedometer Leads the Way
The TickSpeedometer on NinjaTrader tracks ticks per period. High speed shows strong participation—buyers or sellers dominating. Low speed signals fading interest.
To set tick charts:
Start with a default (e.g., 233 or 500 ticks for emini futures).
Watch TickSpeedometer. Ideal setting: Bars form at a pace showing clear surges (high speed) without excessive noise (too many bars) or lag (too few).
Adjust until momentum appears cleanly—surges on high speed, pauses on low.
This adapts to volatility. No trial-and-error guessing.
Trading with TickSpeedometer Confirmation
The indicator does more...
The 5-minute chart for cable has several volume price analysis lessons. First, the fact we have to wait for signals to be confirmed and this is the case in the uptrend. The weakness is signaled clearly on high volume. This is followed by further signals of weakness as the move runs out of steam, before the reversal duly begins. Then in the downtrend, as the reversal gets underway we see the clear re-entry signals and opportunities to jump on the trend if we missed the initial signals. Notice how the trend monitor indicator transitions from bullish to bearish and then helps to keep us in the trend lower as it develops.

Two volume price analysis lessons in one here on the daily chart for the GBP/JPY. First we see rising price and falling volume as the rally of late March stalls as a result. This is an anomaly as we should expect to see rising prices supported with rising volume if the trend is to develop with real momentum. Then we move into the congestion phase. Note the fall in volume as price action narrows and trades around the volume point of control. Now all we need to do is wait and be patient. The breakout will come in due course, and be confirmed as genuine or false with volume.

Analysis of the EUR/AUD Using Volume and Price
EUR/AUD is a fascinating cross pair for analysis. It combines euro policy drivers with Aussie commodity flows. Volume price analysis (VPA) reveals true intent. High volume on moves shows conviction. Low volume warns of weakness or traps.
In this part of the forex trading session we take a closer look at the EUR/AUD charts and explain the price action using volume price analysis.
Key VPA Signals on EUR/AUD
Watch for accumulation in downtrends. Low prices with rising volume signal buying. Distribution at highs appears on high volume but failing price. Divergence between price and volume often precedes reversals. Quantum indicators on MT5 or NinjaTrader highlight these phases clearly.
Practical Insights from Recent Action
EUR/AUD often ranges before breakouts. Volume spikes confirm direction. For example, a rally on increasing volume supports bullish bias. Pullbacks on low volume offer entries. Anna Coulling's VPA approach spots relational shifts early in this cross.

There was only one currency in focus this morning as the country goes to the polls today on one of the tightest general elections we have seen for decades. Ahead of the London forex open, the GBP was being bought but as so often occurs at session crossovers, the trend higher on the GBP/JPY was reversed with the pair moving lower. The volatility indicator was much in evidence as was the volume point of control across the various timeframes, and coupled with the price based support and resistance indicator and accumulation and distribution indicators, defined clear levels of support and resistance.
