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.

A Classic Volume Price Analysis Signal
A classic volume price analysis (VPA) signal appeared on AUD/USD. The pair was in a clear downtrend. Downward momentum looked set to continue. This signal was hard to miss for VPA traders.
In Falling Markets
In falling markets one of the great signals we always look for as forex volume traders is the candle highlighted on the chart, and is often an excellent re-entry signal to any trend if you have missed an opportunity higher in the trend. And the signal is simple and clear. Price weakness as denoted with the deep wick to the upper body of the candle, but associated with high volume. The market has tried to rally on excellent volume but closed lower on the day.
Clearly the market makers are selling into weakness and therefore we can expect the trend lower to continue. You can join me in my free forex webclass where I explain this and other principles of volume price...
Forex markets calm as the US trading session gets underway, with the pound moving sideways following the strong trends of earlier in the day. At such times, volume price and time then combine as the volume point of control indicator for MT5 reveals the fulcrum of the market.

The Volume Point of Control Confirmed It All!
The Volume Point of Control (VPOC) often confirms it all in trading sessions. It marks the price level with the highest traded volume. This acts as "fair value". Price gravitates here. Breaks or bounces reveal market intent.
Another session for day trading the US indices where patience and more patience was required, but as always it’s volume spread analysis coupled with the Quantum Trading tools and indicators which helps to keep us safe and stop us from jumping in and then regretting this decision. The volatility indicator was once again much in evidence as indeed was the accumulation and distribution indicator for NinjaTrader, helping to define those key levels of price support and resistance which are so important.
The volume point of control was also much in evidence with the primary US indices of the ES, the YM, and the NQ all rotating around key levels as price agreement was reached in the faster timeframes....
Another interesting session with the British pound once again in focus for several reasons.
First of course Brexit continues to dominate the news, and whenever an item of fundamental news is released it is the context of the bigger picture, and therefore has relatively little impact. Second, a volume price analysis anomaly was clearly in evidence on the daily chart for the GBP/AUD. Here we saw a wide spread up candle, yet the associated volume was not in agreement with such a strong move. Clearly the market makers were not participating in the move higher, with the pair duly rolling over a few days later to deliver a clear trading opportunity to the short side.
Finally we focused on the new release of retail sales to demonstrate volume price analysis in action on the 1 minute timeframe, and moreover the trap moves initiated on any such release, with the volatility indicator revealing its true power.

In this morning's forex trading session, David and I explained the price cycle for forex markets, and through the prism of the Quantum Trading currency strength indicator. This indicator for MT4, MT5, and NinjaTrader describes the journey every currency makes from overbought to oversold and back again and reflecting the Wyckoffian principles of primary and secondary trends, as well as explaining how markets move from accumulation to distribution and back again in all time-frames.
All of this is of course underpinned by their core methodology which is volume price analysis and which is complemented with the full suite of tools and indicators from Quantum Trading.
