This was a red-letter day in every respect with positive news about a vaccine for COVID driving the markets into a frenzy as risk on dominated for much of the day. Leading the way were the yen currency pairs in the yen matrix, surging higher in all timeframes and mirroring the price action in equity markets. And of course, all confirmed through the prism of volume price analysis.

In this video we explain the importance of session crossovers, what they are and why they occur, but more importantly what to look out for at these times as a forex trader. Whilst the forex market is often presented as a twenty-four hour market which technically it is, the times at which a major trading centre joins or takes over from one which closes, effectively breaks these up into four hour or eight hour periods of trading. At such times, the market makers are active and what we often see as here in this example, is a strong trend in one session then weakens or reverses and in this case is it the GBP/AUD which had a fantastic trend higher during the London session, only to reverse in the US session later.

Learn how to identify the best trading forex trading opportunities using the Quantum Trading currency tools and indicators and applying the volume price analysis methodology. The currency dashboard is key to this approach, starting with the currency strength indicator which reveals when currencies are moving strongly higher or lower, or reaching oversold or overbought regions. Then the currency matrix and the currency array step in to reveal the same principles but in terms of the currency pairs themselves. Multiple timeframes also play a key part whether used on the indicators themselves or the charts and this is an interative process moving from one to another to select the best opportunity in your chosen timeframe.

As the currency of first reserve and with the US election now on the horizon, the US dollar is likely to take centre stage for the next few weeks. This week alone there are eighteen speakers from the FED giving their own views and with the recent death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, this has certainly stirred up the contest for the White House. From a technical perspective, the US dollar has been in decline for some time and well off the highs of May at over 100. However, the congestion phase now building on the daily chart between 92 and 94 is developing into a potential platform for a strong reversal in due course and potential to return to this level once more, which will be damaging for risk assets such as US equities.

With Brexit once more in the headlines it's the British pound which is delivering some great forex trading opportunities across the pound complex and worries concerning a no deal surface once more and drive the currency lower on the daily timeframe. But remember, when a currency is driven in this way expect to see volatility and plenty of trap moves intraday which is where the volatility indicator steps in. And the news for the pound was made worse by the release of news concerning a vaccine trial which had run into problems. So not a happy time for the pound at present!

None of us are patient, yet when it comes to congestion phases this is where patience really does pay off, as these are the price regions where trends are created and born. And remember Wyckoff's second law of cause and effect, the longer the cause the greater will be the effect. In other words this brings time into the equation.
