Hi guys, I have seen a few threads regarding historical data at a reasonable cost. I've been trying ...

i'm not sure on the use of the macd and rsi on an ichimoku chart. it also goes against the TP part of the ichimoku king system. whilst i don't think that the TP should be fixed, i've never really seen MACD, RSI etc as a consistently reliable ...

I have looked at some of my backtest data and played around with some of the SL figures, and the key part to this system being profitable is the move to BE for the second two positions. i think the fibs could be a great addition for these second two ...

I did a back-test for cable and over the last year it looks really good. I then tried this on EU and it was terrible. Negative performance and all over the place. if i take the first target price down to 10 pips and the price at which trade 2 and 3 ...

is anyone still using this system? I haven't had a time to back test it properly. i was forward testing it, but have been away. I think a tweaked version to avoid fakeouts maybe removing breakout across clouds with flat opposite sides could be ...

On H1 it has been threatening to break down for some time. Hopefully soon we should get some real movement.

Once the trades are open, do you worry about the signals any more, or do you just stick to the SL rules. So if SS went into price, or the T/K crossed back the other way, would you consider closing some of the positions?

I think there are a few things to consider. Systematic trading can be profitable, but I think that the most important part of it is MM. I would go as far as saying that if you take a simple system and add good money management to suit the system you ...

ichimokuking I have been using Ichi for a year or so, and it has been common for people following ichi not trade a breakout if the price is crossing a flat Senkou Span B. I have noticed on a few current charts that this seems to hold true. I was ...

It seems that you shouldnt have taken the first trade as the SS was still below the price and you TS was not above your KS. 2 fulfills the criteria, but i think you should still be looking bullish, then 3 was an accurate time to enter. so i think ...

How did you have three losses in a row in one day on an hour chart on only 1 pair?

i think they are all meant to be completed in order. although i would have thought that 1 and 2 wouldnt matter too much if they were slightly out of sync.

it looks like there could be a break to upside on EURJPY on the next hourly bar. what does everyone think? image

You should use whatever you are comfortable with. You will find some programs super annoying. Mt4 is pretty flexible and works with most brokers so you'll see a lot of people using it. I find the actual trading interface a bit annoying, so I ...

So you traded the bounce off the bottom of the kumo. Nice work. Looks good. I need to keep an eye out for these things. Sorry I looked at that wrong. The CS bounced off the kumo. Is that why you went long?

Excellent. Thanks LL. will load three when I get a chance.

Hi guys, i've started making a diary of all of the pairs i monitor as i use different programs between home, work and on my phone. I noticed earlier that was categorising each pair as one of the following: Currently trending (too late to enter); ...

you should be using something active like the kumo, or some people use the Kinjun Sen, some use Kinjun Sen on TF above. try a few and see which works best for your style of trading. H1 can still be pretty volatile, so i'd say the other side of the ...

I was was wondering how many higher TFs everyone uses for confirmation? I have been trading off H1 with confo on both H4 and D1, but might move up to H4, which would mean I use D1 and W1. I'm not a fan of using W1 as it turns so slowly, so was going ...
