Forex factory numbers and central banks
00:12
The speaker comments on recent forex factory data, noting that the reported numbers are almost meaningless in the current context. They emphasize that the key focus should now be on central bank actions, as market conditions have deteriorated significantly. The speaker also mentions that the upcoming reports at the end of next month will be more important and expresses hope that the current low point is the worst of the situation.

Unprecedented speed of market fall
00:49
The speaker discusses the unprecedented speed of the recent market fall, emphasizing that while the scale of decline is not unprecedented, the rapidity is. They recall the downturns in 2000, 2007, and 2008, which unfolded gradually over months, contrasting with the current situation where significant declines have occurred within weeks. The speaker...

Volume price analysis confirms using Wyckoff's three laws of supply and demand, cause and effect and finally and most importantly effort vs result.

Great Move on GBP/CAD Using Multiple Time Frames
Using multiple time frames to identify and capture trading opportunities is made a lot easier with the best forex trading indicators, and we had a great example earlier today on the GBP/CAD. Based on a combination of the hourly chart for the Matrix and 15 min chart of the Array, resulted in a 200+ move in these highly charged markets. The indicators were supported with a 3-pip Renko and a 3-minute time chart. The two charts show above explain the result and all supported by our volume price analysis methodology.
GBP and CAD Fundamentals: Understanding the Pair and Multi-Timeframe Trading
The British Pound (GBP) is the currency of the United Kingdom, one of the world's largest and most influential economies. The UK is a major financial services hub (London is the world's leading international banking and forex centre), with significant contributions from professional services, manufacturing, and North Sea oil/gas. GBP is a high-beta, risk-sensitive currency:...
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.

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...
Great Volume Price Analysis Lessons On The CAD/JPY
Some classic price action on the CAD/JPY daily chart, and in particular, several volume price analysis lessons to take away. First, note the volume anomaly on the wide spread up candle. Volume is average, so the market makers are not participating, as the trap is set. Clearly, volume and price are not in agreement, and this is a sure signal of weakness ahead.
The price waterfall is developing as expected, and note the rising volume in a falling market, confirming the strength of the trend. Finally, in the last few days, we have had a two-bar reversal on good volume, with the currency pair looking weak. And remember, the Canadian dollar is closely associated with oil and with the recent fall in oil prices, this has also been reflected in the currency and one of the topics I cover in my free forex webclass.

Crossover session traps
The crossover sessions in forex occur when trading in one timezone closes and another opens and can be a very dangerous time for traders. Why? Because this is where insider traps are set. The London open always is a fertile ground and there was a great example on the usd/jpy.
Heavy buying in the pair on the previous day resulted in a nice move higher in Asia with the pair moving into consolidation ahead of the London open.
Prior to the open the pair started to move higher on reasonable volume but reversed lower at the open on high volume until the hammer candle, again on high volume pushed the pair back towards the consolidation (the yellow line on the chart).
