Trading forex we are spoiled for choice when it comes to the number of trading opportunities that arrive through the trading session. So how do you choose which trade is likely to deliver the best return for the lowest risk. In this video, we explain the steps using the Quantum Trading currency-specific indicators and of course using volume price analysis to confirm.

Session crossovers occur each day at precisely the same time in the forex market and provide another perfect opportunity for the market makers to play their tricks on unsuspecting traders. These are the points at which one major trading centre opens taking over from another or joining it, and in either case these are times when you may see changes or pauses in trend, and whilst the forex market is one which trades on a twenty four hour basis, the sessions then break down into four hour cycles. So when a strong trend develops during London for example, this may often weaken or reverse as the US session begins as was the case here and of course confirmed by volume price analysis.

Wyckoff's three laws of cause and effect, effort and result, and finally supply and demand perfectly describe the foundational laws of volume price analysis which uses candlesticks, candle patterns and support and resistance in addition. In this session and focusing on the YM emini futures contract, once again we have some terrific lessons in volume price analysis.

Even when markets are trading in congestion it's possible to make money trading them. All it means it you have to be quick and take a smash and grab approach to trading and in particular what this means is moving either to the very fast timeframes as we show here using the YM Emini future in the live US session, or alternatively moving to a non-time-based chart such as a Renko or tick chart. All these approaches are equally valid and in this session, we focus on showing you how to use the 15-second chart to trade as the future moves in a narrow range. Volume price analysis works in all timeframes and this is a perfect example of its power for scalping traders.

At the start of the London forex trading session the market was buying the US dollar across the complex, a fact confirmed by considering this in both the spot and futures markets along with the currency array indicator for NinjaTrader. The GBP/USD was one in particular with an excellent move lower, before reversing with a terrific volume signal as the buyers stepped in to reverse the trend with the BOE chairman helping to drive the sentiment.

As the FED strives to maintain confidence in US markets, all eyes are now focused on the US dollar in the run to the US elections, and with so many factors driving sentiment each and every one could be a factor. This week alone sees eighteen comments from FED members and with the pandemic continuing to dominate, the death of US Supreme Court judge Ruth Bader Ginsburg, this too has added an significant twist to the possible outcome. All of this and much more will play out in the US dollar over the next few weeks and with it languishing in the low 90's on the daily chart, from a technical perspective it has the potential to regain the 100 handle once more, a level not seen since May.

If you're looking to take a reversal trade in the forex market, one place to look is the currency strength indicator.
