am in long EJ now on ma 1 min as shown in the pic
Wish me luck

I am not trading M1, it is too fast for me, so only taking trades from M5 if all conditions are met. Everything looks good for longs as H4 cleared kumo resistance, as well.

Good luck on this one.

I've been demoing around with Ichimoku the 3M charts on http://www.fxstreet.com/rates-charts/charts-panel/. It's definately a little more responsive than the 5M, and for scalping purposes it lets you jump in for the start of a Tenkan-Kijun crossover run 2+ mins earlier than the 5M.

Have a play around with it, and let me know what you guys think!

EDIT: Is it even possible to create a 3M in MT4? Someone must know this answer...

Yes, it is possible, try this one. Put it on M1 chart and change Period Multiplier to 3 and and open offline M3 from File menu. Don't forget to tick " Allow DLL input" on M1 chart. Hope that helps.

hi
i think if anyone want to trade on smaller TFs like 5m .needs a trend indicator that dosen't repaint to filter wrong orders. i have already seen your thread so forgive me if this subject has debated before.

Very tempted to go in for a scalp just then,

However, all the TFs are pretty much in conflict.

Would have been an +8pip profit (in demo trading), but too risky for live account.

EDIT: Price has come back down by 8, so the window of opportunity was very tight, again to highlight the risk at the moment!

this looks a good signal (doesn't appear anymore in the 5m column because new bar).
LONG Senkou span cross + Kumo Breakout chikou span confirmed, to restore long trend of higher timeframe.
SL under the kumo.
Hoping that signal propagates to M15 and M30

P.s. Maybe more safe to wait for breakout confirmation bar

Let's see....

Kumo Signal Breakout fixed (not shown when senkou b broke)
thanks wolfan, that signal seems too risky crossing fom a flat top kumo, I'd wait for a pullback.

edit: well what'u know, if you went in you'd be already +20, but the 15M crossing is almost there

yes, but at the same time Kumo breakout on 30M and Kijun Sen Cross at 1H (20 pips for 5m TF not a bad target)

Absolutely, the problem is to control the greed factor, because there is no exit signal yet unless you already have a fixed profit target.

Bounce on 15M Kumo or 30M Kumo Break (that means also 15M Kumo Break) ...
Who knows it will win...

Maybe this point is a good TP for the 5M signal given before

thanks golfer, yes I am using MT4. I liked the prices appearing alongside the levels or is it possible to show the prices with the one I have?

Ok...go to levels and put in your fav fib under description and put in @%$ ...this will give you the price.

Makes it easy to eye ball everything.
