When applied in conjunction with real volumes and monitoring of various instrument charts, it is possible to identify certain reversal setups. In some cases

The indicator displays the inside bar pattern on the chart. Its distinguishing feature is the triple filtration. First, not all candles meeting usual conditions can be used as first candles here. It should be a "free" candle, meaning that its High or Low (depending on conditions) should have a free space to the left. The VSA method has a similar condition called 'new fresh ground' . In case of an uptrend, the candle's High should be free, in case of a downtrend, it is the candle's Low. Second, t

I want to present to you my solution in the implementation of automatic drawing of Fibo levels on the whole trend and the last trend leg. The logic of the indicator is based on the principle of swings, and when indicator gets a signal for a trend direction change, the previous key point before reversing is considered the start point of the indicator's drawing. When you test the indicator, note that changing the direction of the whole trend leg of Fibonacci often leads to a reversal of the trend.

The indicator is designed to calculate the correlation between major pairs and display cross-pair of overbought or oversold labels on the price chart. The idea is that strong divergences of major pairs lead to an exit from the "equilibrium" of the corresponding cross pairs. With sufficiently large divergences, which are displayed by the indicator, the cross-pair is usually corrected by entering the "equilibrium". For example: when working on EURAUD pair, the difference for the period specified

Открытый интерес (количество открытых позиций) – это количество активных контрактов по фьючерсу. Обычно анализируют не сам открытый интерес, а его изменение.

If there is only one MT5 indicator you ever buy for trading forex – this has to be it. Your success as a forex trader depends on being able to identify when a currency or currency pair is oversold or overbought. If it is strong or weak. It is this concept which lies at the heart of forex trading. Without the Quantum Currency Strength indicator, it is almost impossible. There are simply too many currencies and too many pairs to do this quickly and easily yourself. You need help! The Quantum C

The Euro Currency Index or EURX , quantifies and displays strength and weakness of the single currency. As the index rises it signals strength in the single currency against a basket of currencies. As the index falls this signals weakness in the euro. The Quantum EURX is calculated from a basket of four currencies with each currency having an equal weighting of 25%. US Dollar Japanese Yen British Pound Australian Dollar The indicator can be used in one of three ways: First, to identify and con

Have you ever wondered why so many Forex traders get trapped in weak positions on the wrong side of the market? One of the easiest ways the market makers do this, is by using volatility. A currency pair moves suddenly, often on a news release or economic data. Traders jump in, expecting some quick and easy profits, but the move suddenly moves in the opposite direction. This happens in all timeframes, and in all currency pairs. The candle or bar closes, with a wide spread, but then reverses sharp

One of the oldest maxims in trading is ‘let the trend be your friend’. You must have come across it! This is easier said than done! First, you have to identify one, then you have to stay in – not easy. Staying in a trend to maximise your profits is extremely difficult. In addition, how do you know when a trend has started? It’s very easy to look back and identify the trend. Not so easy at the live edge of the market. The Quantum Trends indicator is the ‘sister’ indicator to the Quantum Trend Mon

Of all the four principle capital markets, the world of foreign exchange trading is the most complex and most difficult to master, unless of course you have the right tools! The reason for this complexity is not hard to understand. First currencies are traded in pairs. Each position is a judgment of the forces driving two independent markets. If the GBP/USD for example is bullish, is this being driven by strength in the pound, or weakness in the US dollar. Imagine if we had to do the same thing

We don’t want to become boring, but the US dollar is the most important currency for all traders, and not just in Forex. Trading without a clear view of the US dollar is like driving in fog. Sooner or later you are going to crash – it’s just a question of when. That’s why at Quantum we have developed two US dollar indices. The first is the Quantum DXY, and the second is the Quantum USDX. So what’s the difference? Well, the reason we created the Quantum USDX is that many Forex traders believe tha

Many Forex traders have either been told, or have learnt from painful experience, that the Yen currency pairs can be both dangerous and volatile to trade. The GBP/JPY is perhaps the most infamous and volatile of all. No wonder then, that many Forex traders simply stay away from the Yen currency pairs. But then they probably don’t have a very clear idea of where the Yen itself is heading. If they did, then trading the Yen pairs would be much more straightforward. And this is where the Quantum JPY

For aspiring price action traders, reading a candle chart at speed can be learnt, but is a skill which takes years to perfect. For lesser mortals, help is required, and this is where the Quantum Dynamic Price Pivots indicator steps in to help. As a leading indicator based purely on price action, the indicator delivers simple clear signals in abundance, highlighting potential reversals with clinical efficiency. Just like volume and price, pivots are another ‘predictive’ indicator, and a leading i

Currency pairs never go up or down in a straight line. They rise and fall constantly, creating pullbacks and reversals. And with each rise and fall, so your emotions rise and fall. Hope, then fear, then hope. This is when the market will try to frighten you out of a strong position. It is when you are most vulnerable. But not if you have the Quantum Trend Monitor. And here, you even get two indicators for the price of one! The Quantum Trend Monitor has been designed to absorb these temporary pau

The Quantum VPOC indicator has been developed to expand the two dimensional study of volume and price, to a three dimensional one which embraces time. The volume/price/time relationship then provides real insight to the inner workings of the market and the heartbeat of sentiment and risk which drives the price action accordingly. The Quantum VPOC indicator displays several key pieces of information on the chart as follows: Volume Profile - this appears as a histogram of volume on the vertical pr
