A look at the daily and weekly charts for gold following its recent move higher, which appears to be driven by the meltdown in the crypto space and not the ongoing raging inflation and geopolitical worries. The charts speak for themselves, and the question is whether the precious metal can maintain the bullish momentum. The volume price analysis signals on the daily confirm a slowdown and correction with the key resistance levels on the weekly confirming.

Session crossovers provide market makers with the perfect opportunity to trap traders into losing positions. Sadly, many traders are still unaware that this happens regularly and across all markets. It is done using the volatility we always see when transitioning from one financial centre to another or at the opening of a physical market. For example, at the Wall Street open, there is an inrush of participants into equities and markets such as Globex. The result is always volatile, with prices moving quickly in one direction before reversing sharply.
However, traders who use price action and volume analysis recognize these traps and stay out until the true market direction is confirmed. There was a great example this week on the gbp/jpy at the London open when as we can see from the 15 min chart above, the currency pair seemed poised to reverse lower following a strong move higher at Eurex (the European open) and following such a move a reversal...
A wide-ranging video in which David highlights some nice vpa examples on the indices ahead of the US Close, along with how the volume point of control (VPOC) can often signal a major reversal in trend. Plus, the importance of the psychology of trading and why it is the key to discovering your trading persona.

Volume price analysis signals appear across all markets and timeframes. In this recording, David & I consider these on the DXY, the Indices, and the triple-levered semi-conductor ETF, the SOXL. However, as we explain, it is essential to view vpa not only in multiple timeframes but also in the context of support and resistance, which is where the Quantum indicators can help the accumulation and distribution indicator, particularly which not only marks these key levels on the chart but also confirms their relative strength. It does this by thickening the line each time it is touched, giving us a clear visual picture of the effort required to break through the levels.

In this video, David & I look at the currencies ahead of tomorrow's Non-Farm Payroll release, particularly the USD and its relationship with bonds and stocks.

In this video, David & I cover using the Quantumtrading support & resistance indicators for stocks such as Fate Therapeutics, Apple & Tesla. The indicators in question are the volume point of control which marks out key levels in terms of volume and the price-based accumulation and distribution indicator. This indicator is unique in that once the indicator marks a level it will thicken each time that level is tested and holds. What this does for the trader and investor is give a clear visual picture of the relative strength of any significant level. And when the accumulation & distribution combines with the volume point of control we know the level is of supreme importance as we can see on the monthly chart for FATE.

An update on the monthly chart for the XLE energy EFT as the sector appears to fall out of favor with the monthly chart looking to post a bearish engulfing candle. However, we were already aware the price action in the XLE was likely to come to a pause and probable reversal with the failure to take out the volume band of the volume point of control (vpoc). As one of our most powerful indicators, the vpoc not only gives us the structure of the chart in terms of whether the price action is in trend or congestion but also gives us key volume-based support & resistance levels and zones. In addition, last month's candle also triggered our volatility indicator so a retrace into the spread of the candle was highly likely, particularly when accompanied by low volume. The vpoc itself (yellow hatched line) marks the area on the chart which could be described as being 'fair value' where traders...
In this morning's Forex webinar David & I covered a wide range of topics including the importance of understanding the principle drivers for currencies and currency pairs as well as how to spot and use the simple two candle reversal pattern with vpa and the Quantum indicators.

My video analysis of PLUG Power a major player in green hydrogen. The company has been around since 1999 and has a very interesting backstory. More recently it was the subject of a dramatic 'pump & dump' with the stock rising to an ATH of $76 before falling back to $12. A recent large order for an electrolyzer has seen the stock on the move. However, traders and investors who use volume price analysis will have seen the buying come before this positive news was announced, one reason PLUG is our vpa chart of the week.
