Using Renko Charts on the eur/cad

October 27, 2022February 8, 2026 by Anna Coulling Comment Closed

Over the past few days, volatile price action in the euro currency has highlighted how using a Renko chart can help us deal successfully with such market conditions, and the pair I want to focus on is the eur/cad. Yesterday, the euro had a good day with strong upward moves across its matrix, but this was ahead of today's important ECB meeting. Whilst the bank raised interest rates as expected, the accompanying statement triggered volatile price action and a swift move lower. Rather, it was what was not mentioned in the statement, as the ECB removed any reference to rate hikes continuing at the next 'several' meetings. The 15 min and Renko charts above capture this moment for us. By Anna Coulling - creator of volume price analysis Ready to Master Forex Trading with Volume Price Analysis?

Whilst this is not the FED's preferred inflation metric, it nevertheless provides the market with some insight into how quickly inflation is rising. Despite the subdued London tone, there was a really nice trade in the EUR/CAD. Indeed, the cad is very much the currency to watch and it often moves quite strongly outside of his natural timezone. The trade setup was on the 5 min chart as a breakout from the volume point of control and S3 on the Renko, with a reversal, then coming on a bullish engulfing candle. The reversal saw the pair move back to the S3 so a round trip ahead of the release. Meanwhile, GBP/JPY was also in focus, reversing on positive US market sentiment - as we can see in the...
