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.

Trading is a risky business. Money chasing higher risk for higher returns, lower risk for lower returns. But when it comes to assessing the risk on the trade, how do we do it? And there is a simple answer to this question. Use the chart. This is the market telling you where it is likely to pause and congest, where it is likely to move quickly through low volume nodes on the volume point of control. All the information is there and when used in multiple timeframes will answer the question for you quickly and more importantly in a logical and common-sense way!

Not sure where to start when you settle at your trading screen ahead of another forex trading session? The answer is to start with the currency dashboard from Quantum Trading which gives you a complete window on the world of currencies. Start with the currency strength indicator which reveals those currencies which are moving strongly, those which are in congestion, and those which are overbought or oversold. From there it's off to the charts to analyze the price action and associated volume. Then on the currency matrix for sentiment across the complex, followed by the currency array which reveals those currency pairs which are trending strongly and moving to overbought or overbought conditions. And finally to the currency heatmap for an assessment of the trend across the timeframes and for some longer-term reversal opportunities on the ranking ladder.

Money flow is all about risk and in this video we explain how and where to identify it in the various charts from the VIX and equities to the volatility indices.

This is a large topic and one we cover in the detail in the Complete Forex Trading program which you can find here https://quantumtradingeducation.com

How do you choose the best currency pair to trade? And what do we mean by best? Most of the time we are looking for strong trends, either a reversal in sentiment where the trend reverses or the continuation of an existing trend. But how do we know which is likely to deliver the strongest trend, and the answer is simple. We match the strongest with the weakest and in doing so are likely to see the strongest trend as a result. The indicator we use to do this is the currency strength indicator which highlights instantly and visually which currencies are rising strongly, which are falling strongly and just as important those which are moving sideways and therefore have neither strength or weakness.
