In this video, Anna focuses on the EUR/AUD pair as the London forex session gets into full swing applying Wyckoff principles and in particular effort and result which is 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.

As the London forex market gets underway Anna explains the basic principles of how to apply volume price analysis to the forex market and in particular how this is blended with Richard Wyckoff's three laws. These are supply and demand, cause and effect and effort vs result.

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.

In these unprecedented and dramatic times for markets, traders and investors volume price analysis has never been more appropriate and we had a great example on the 3 min chart for the WTI contract for April.
The chart is vpa 101 where following a move lower from a strong resistance line we have a candle with a deep upper wick and very high volume not only confirming the move lower but also providing a potential point of entry. The minor correction higher is on falling volume thereby validating our initial analysis.

One of the relationships I cover in my free forex webclass is that between oil and the Canadian dollar, and it has never been more important following today's dramatic price action for both crude oil itself and broad market sentiment. So with equity markets in free fall along with oil, the CAD/JPY pair has delivered some wonderful trading opportunities, along with several others in the Canadian dollar complex. The combination of risk-off and oil has driven the pair lower still following the gapped down open under heavy selling as seen on the daily chart. Over the next few days it will be a question of watching the related markets of oil and equities for any recovery in the Canadian dollar.

Fundamental news is often cyclical and the importance of one type will vary according to where we are in the economic cycle. In addition, such items may be overshadowed by more prescient news, and this is certainly the case at present with Coronovirus dominating world headlines and driving fear in the markets. So it was no surprise to see the monthly NFP release have little impact on US indices, which paused momentarily before continuing their journey South as we can see across the three sisters here of the YM emini, the NQ emini and the ES emini. Note the weakness in the reaction higher on the 5m charts to the top of the image.

It's been a day of weakness for the Aussie yen as risk-on sentiment evaporated once more, with markets remaining fragile and nervous as each day reveals fresh news on the current virus sweeping the globe. As a barometer of risk the AUD/JPY is always one currency pair that reveals this sentiment clearly, with the Aussie dollar considered a risk currency and the Japanese yen a safe haven. This weakness was signaled earlier in the week with the failed effort to rise on high volume and now followed by a bearish engulfing candle.

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).
