I'm just learning Ichimoku, but I was taught that a confirming indicator is the lagging line also exiting the cloud?
And also think that a risk/reward can't be set in stone, like a 5:1. I was told the cloud can/does act as support/resistance.

I suppose you need add more Exit condition
For example, tensan dead cross kijun to Exit buy even 100 pips target not yet meet.

Hello.

I trade with Ichimoku cloud breakout (in 1h chart). I exit the trade when the price crosses to the other side.
That's the best exit for me! That way I don't have too much entries nor the risk of exit too soon.

I don't use the default Ichimoku settings for 1h charts.

I've been profitable so far.

This is my EU trade right now:

100 pips so far.

Before that was a 2000 points trade.

Best regards

Can you elaborate a bit on that pls. You trade on price breakout of cloud which is one of the rules but your exit cant be price crossing to other side of cloud as thats a whopping loss. must be a mis-statement there somewhere.
