The crossover from one session to another is a dangerous time for forex traders and an extremely profitable one for the market makers. Why? Watch the video to discover why and what you are likely to see at every such period of the trading day, particularly in the Far East Asis to London crossover and later when the US markets open. Note the importance of having the volatility indicator from Quantum Trading which triggers in real-time and gives an instant warning of volatility in the market. The indicator works on average true range and its power lies in forecasting what is likely to happen next which is either congestion, or a full reversal in trend.

As the London forex session gets into full swing, sentiment is clearly displayed on the VIX which is trending lower as risk on sentiment returns with equities push ing higher on US futures markets. And of course currency flows from the yen and other risk currencies confirm the picture.

In this morning's forex trading session we saw the first signs of a change in sentiment following the panic selling of the last few weeks, with risk currencies and safe haven flows sending strong signals of this change. Volume price analysis confirms using Wyckoff's three laws of supply and demand, cause and effect and finally and most importantly effort vs result.

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 and therefore the market makers are not participating as the trap is prepared. Clearly volume and price are not in agreement and a sure signal of weakness ahead.
The price waterfall duly develops 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.

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).
