Sounds like you're right, especially about the "glorious days are behind us" kind of attitude.

Hey Were there any cool ichimoku trades during the recent upswing using the ichimoku systems? I bet there were some nice ones...will be good to know!

Do you know any free resources where I can learn to code in MT4? I want to learn more for testing than having it trade for me.

That sounds cool! Thanks a lot

Yup! Also looking to getting into the ichimoku course. BTW, just a quick question since you're in the ichimoku course, are the stops and profit targets in the ichi systems defined from the get go like Price action systems?

Was this a kumo break trade?

Wow, that's amazing. Accuracy of 57% with almost 3:1 Reward to risk is super just as it is! I am sure with PA understanding it will be even better.

No problem. Thanks! Ichimoku it will be next, for me

Thanks So is my understanding of the RR and accuracy correct (as I mentioned in my last post)? Because it is very impressive.

Hi Chris, Just reading your response from another person on the 2ndskies website, it appears the ichimoku systems have a minimum RR ratio of 2.8:1 with a minimum accuracy rate of 57% across all systems and time frames right? Just to add another ...

Hi Bedayan As far as stops go they can be always different but your position size determines how much your loss and win amount will be which can be the same on all trades even if stops and targets are variable

I should mention Chris has the ichimoku/pro forex course as well which can be traded on 4hr/daily. So combining the two, you can focus on just 1 time frame if you want and still have a nice number of trades every month! I will consider the icihmoku ...

I have been a member and there are many systems on many time frames with the stats (accuracy, targets). I even tested one system myself on forex tester just to get to know how frequently it trades, etc and my stats from a bit of testing were very ...

Yes, true. I too have tested different strategies with 2:1 and found that if I dont move my stop to BE and just let it go, I get only a 40-45% accuracy whereas if I move stop to BE after a certain point, 50%+ is more than achievable.

Those numbers are really great. So have you tested to see if 50% accuracy is achievable with 2:1?

Does the 50% accuracy include any trend filters such as the 50SMA or anything else? Because if adding the trend filters increases the edge even 2-3%, it will be more significant.

This is what I always believed and was very skeptical when someone said their stop got hunted.

Cool, thanks! I think people that say "my" stop got hunted just need someone to blame.

I only use MT4 for charts but out of curiosity, why is it more easier for them to hunt stops if you use MT4 ?

Thanks , makes me feel a lot more comfortable now. And thanks to everyone else too who answered my question, much appreciated
