Volatility and the crossover session
The crossover from one session to another is a dangerous time for forex traders and an extremely profitable one for the market makers. Why? Watch the video to discover why and what you are likely to see at every such period of the trading day, particularly in the Far East Asis to London crossover and later when the US markets open. Note the importance of having the volatility indicator from Quantum Trading which triggers in real-time and gives an instant warning of volatility in the market.
The indicator works on average true range and its power lies in forecasting what is likely to happen next which is either congestion, or a full reversal in trend.

London forex session using volume price analysis
In this morning's forex trading session we saw the first signs of a change in sentiment following the panic selling of the last few weeks, with risk currencies and safe haven flows sending strong signals of this change. Volume price analysis confirms using Wyckoff's three laws of supply and demand, cause and effect and finally and most importantly effort vs result.

In these unprecedented and dramatic times for markets, traders, and investors, volume-price analysis has never been more appropriate, and we had a great example on the 3-minute chart for the WTI contract for April.
The chart is vpa 101, where, following a move lower from a strong resistance line, we have a candle with a deep upper wick and very high volume, not only confirming the move lower but also providing a potential point of entry. The minor correction is higher on falling volume, thereby validating our initial analysis.
What Volume Price Analysis (VPA) Will Do for You
Volume Price Analysis (VPA) is a straightforward yet powerful trading methodology that focuses on the relationship between price movement and volume to reveal the true intent behind market action. Developed by Anna Coulling and rooted in the classic principles of Wyckoff, tape reading, and the work of pioneers like Livermore and Ney, VPA strips away lagging indicators and noise to show you exactly what professional...
Canadian dollar crushed as oil prices tumble
One of the relationships I cover in my free forex webclass is that between oil and the Canadian dollar, and it has never been more important following today's dramatic price action for both crude oil itself and broad market sentiment. So, with equity markets and oil in free fall, the CAD/JPY pair has delivered some wonderful trading opportunities, along with several others in the Canadian dollar complex. The combination of risk-off and oil has driven the pair lower still, following the gapped-down open under heavy selling as seen on the daily chart. Over the next few days it will be a question of watching the related markets of oil and equities for any recovery in the Canadian dollar.

Muted reaction to NFP for equities
Fundamental news is often cyclical, and the importance of one type will vary according to where we are in the economic cycle. In addition, such items may be overshadowed by more prescient news, and this is certainly the case at present with the coronavirus dominating world headlines and driving fear in the markets. So it was no surprise to see the monthly NFP release have little impact on US indices, which paused momentarily before continuing their journey South as we can see across the three sisters here of the YM emini, the NQ emini and the ES emini. Note the weakness in the reaction at the top of the 5 m charts.
Non-Farm Payroll (NFP): A Key Economic Indicator for Traders
Non-Farm Payroll (NFP) is one of the most anticipated economic releases in the trading world. Issued monthly by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, NFP reports the change in U.S. employment excluding farm workers, private household...
NZD/USD strongest this morning
As I mentioned yesterday, history will judge whether this week's action by the FED was prudent or foolish, but what cannot be denied is the effect on the US, which is a free fall and looking to move towards the 96 price point. This makes today's non-farm payroll release even more important, as a strong number should give the USD some support. The weekly chart for the DXY shows the extent of this week's move as well as the downside levels ahead.
And it's the nzd/usd which has been the strongest of the majors this morning, as we can see on the chart above. A wonderful trend higher supported with the trend dots and trend monitor indicators.
The New Zealand Dollar (NZD): Economics, Key Drivers, and the Carry Trade

Weak AUD/JPY signals return to risk off
It's been a day of weakness for the Aussie yen as risk-on sentiment evaporated once more, with markets remaining fragile and nervous as each day reveals fresh news on the current virus sweeping the globe. As a barometer of risk the AUD/JPY is always one currency pair that reveals this sentiment clearly, with the Aussie dollar considered a risk currency and the Japanese yen a safe haven. This weakness was signaled earlier in the week with the failed effort to rise on high volume and now followed by a bearish engulfing candle.
AUD/JPY: The Ultimate Risk Sentiment Barometer in Forex Markets
The AUD/JPY currency pair is one of the most widely watched "risk-on/risk-off" indicators in the forex world. Often called the "risk barometer" or "carry trade proxy," AUD/JPY moves in near-perfect alignment with global risk appetite. When investors feel optimistic and are willing to take on risk, AUD/JPY rises sharply. When fear returns and risk aversion...
