Plenty of yen buying across the complex as risk sentiment weakens following the reaction to overnight news of progress in finding a vaccine for CV19, as shown clearly on the currency array indicator across multiple timeframes.

The Japanese Yen: Sentiment Indicator, Risk Currency, and Carry Trade Powerhouse
The Japanese yen (JPY) is one of the most unique currencies in forex trading. Often called a "safe haven" and "risk sentiment indicator," its movements reflect global investor mood more than most majors. When risk appetite rises (optimism, stocks rallying), yen weakens. When fear grips markets (crises, volatility spikes), yen strengthens as capital flees to safety. This inverse relationship with risk assets makes yen pairs (USD/JPY, EUR/JPY, AUD/JPY) essential barometers for traders across markets.

Choosing currency pairs based on trading sessions
01:22
The speaker advises traders not to be overwhelmed by the many currency pairs available, suggesting starting with at least three pairs to trade. The choice of pairs should depend on the trading session, as different sessions see different currency movements. For example, during the London session, many pairs move actively including yen and...
Two-volume price analysis lessons in one here on the daily chart for the GBP/JPY. First, we see rising prices and falling volume as the rally of late March stalls. 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.
The Historical Foundations of Volume Price Analysis
Volume Price Analysis (VPA) has its roots in the early days of technical analysis, dating back to Charles Dow's Dow Theory in the late 19th century. Dow emphasized that price movements must be confirmed by volume to be valid—high volume on advances showed strength, low volume warned of weakness. This...

No best currency pair for intraday trading
00:10
The speaker addresses a question about the best currency pair for intraday trading using CSI, emphasizing that there is no single best or perfect approach. Instead, the choice depends on what suits the individual trader. Some traders focus on one or a few pairs, while others trade any available pairs. The decision also depends on trading style, such as scalping, reversal trading, or trend trading, all of which relate to personal risk preferences. The speaker notes that this is a complex topic covered in detail in the program and promises to provide further explanation during the session.

The speaker discusses analyzing the euro currency across multiple timeframes—3, 5, 10, and 15 minutes—to get a comprehensive view of its movement. Early in the session, trading conditions were congested, making it difficult to find trades. Patience is emphasized while waiting for a move developing consistently across different timeframes. The euro showed strong climbing momentum on shorter timeframes, with similar patterns emerging on the 10- and 15-minute charts, although moves tend to be less pronounced on slower timeframes as expected.

Focusing on the EUR/AUD in the London forex session and volume price analysis
In this video, Anna focuses on the EUR/AUD pair as the London forex session gets into full swing, applying Wyckoff principles, particularly effort and result, one of Wyckoff’s three laws. This is the third law, which in simple terms means price and volume. The effort is the volume, and the result is the price action, and whether this is in agreement with the volume or in disagreement. An anomaly in other words. Volume price analysis reveals the truth behind the price action.
