In this video from the US trading session we explain some of the basics of trading stock options and how to apply the volume price analysis methodology.

Terrific price action on the US indices as the US election is finally settled but not without a storming of the Senate which lead to a sell of later in the day.

In the first part of the US day trading session I focus on the US 30 which is a great way to get started trading indices as it does not require a specialist futures brokers account and moves in the same way. And here I also explain the importance of levels and flows which define market sentiment as it moves between risk-on and risk-off in this and related markets. Levels can be defined in many ways and the most common are off course from a price based perspective, but here I also use volume and the Camarilla Levels indicator.

Wall Street was in sombre mood following the explosive move the previous day, where risk on sentiment dominated. Equity markets surged and risk currency sold off strongly and reflected equally in bond markets and yields.

Volume price analysis is a universal methodology that works in all timeframes from the fastest to the slowest, and yesterday's US trading session was a classic example as futures traded sideways following the explosive surge higher of the day before. At such times it's a case of moving to the fastest timeframes to scalp out the trades and here we saw opportunities in index futures, and commodities.
