Mastering USD-Correlated Setups: Smart Money Trade Ideas on GBP/JPY, Euro/JPY and Liquidity Zones

he recent market colour] session hosted by VFT Hub provided a comprehensive breakdown of currency market analysis, highlighting high-probability trading setups using smart money trading strategies. The meeting was anchored on institutional trading concepts, emphasizing key price levels, trend analysis, and precise entry criteria on major USD-correlated pairs including GBP/JPY, EUR/JPY, and GBP/USD.

The session opened with a focused examination of the Dollar Index, where VFT projected a potential retracement into a fair value gap before further bearish continuation. Traders were urged to monitor the 50% Fibonacci retracement level, as this confluence zone typically presents high-quality opportunities for directional moves—especially within a liquidity trading framework.

Using price action trading and candlestick patterns like the engulfing candle and 1-2-3 formation, VFT broke down potential sell zones on Euro/JPY, and projected buy setups on GBP/JPY, provided price taps into key institutional order blocks.

Additional trading insights were shared on EUR/USD and GBP/USD, with analysts encouraging traders to wait for clear reversal patterns on the 1-hour timeframe. The importance of risk management was heavily emphasized, including techniques like breaking even at structural highs and lows and closing partial positions around major support and resistance levels.

Traders were also taught to interpret liquidity zones—specifically Asian highs, New York lows, and session opens—to identify where institutional players are most active. The VFT team described how these zones become magnets for price action, especially in end-of-month and NFP week conditions.
