If you do this and have the time, post a chart because I'd like to learn from you on this.
Hi Mate,

No probs, have attached the pre-trade analysis that a post a while back which is the basis for this trade.

Let me know if you have any particular things that you'd like to know.

I am very careful on trading this one and in all fairness could have gone in on a couple of weaker signals earlier just before it went off a cliff however the GY works both ways and has smashed me the wrong way quite a few times. So once bitten twice shy so to speak.

Great to hear you are on board!!

Cheers

No way , this will isolate you from the big picture , you may read till page 10 and everything will be more clear
also we have a monitoring indicator to help you monitor the higher TFs

Hi Superscalper,

I know and understand why it looks like you can just use the short timeframes, however you just do not get a strong enough signal from them.

Maybe to scalp 2,3 or 8 pips yes this is possible however we are not committed to trading for this high risk and labor intensive way of trading. All of our trades we hold for 50+pips and they are much lower stress trades than scalping.

You should check out my post on page 77 #1153. I talk about the "Daily Grind" meaning the boring daily reseach that ichimoku traders need to do in order to get in to the right profitable trade setups.

This shows very clearly why you need to refer to the longer time frames because without the longer timeframes you just cannot have the perspective to protect yourself from the risk.

Feel free to message me further if you want more explanation by Private Message and I will explain. this thread is a proactive thread for people using Vic's system so you will not get many answers asking if you can change the system.

Wish you the best with your trading !!
Cheers

hi,

i m fairly new to forex, been trading for a couple of months, trying numerous indicators, still looking for the ''one'' if u like...having read most of this thread, i m excited to get to work with this baby, it looks solid.
Just one quick question on how to set up the parameters. my trading platform is rumus 2. When i create the ichimoku indicator, it asks me to input 3 different values for each of the ichimoku lines. By default these values are all the same, which smells fishy.
Also do the parameters differ when on daily and hourly as with some indicators it is advised to use different time parameters.

thx for help anyone

Honestly that Daily Grind analysis should be framed in your room to remind you to wait for the strong signal before trading.

@Wolfan71: Mate would it be possible to include an alert system in a version 3 of Ichimoku_Signal to we get an email when we have strong signal (or we can customize the conditions when we get an alert). You've already gone above and beyond the call of duty, and I'm really wishing I knew how to code for mt4, but I think this would take it to the next level?

Hi guys,

I am new to this, so I will keep it short.

At approx. 2300 hours GMT (20 minutes ago), I saw a possible entry for the gbpjpy.

Please do not hesitate to point out what may seem like 'obvious' reasons why you wouldn't go for the trade, as these reasons may not be so obvious to me.

Haha.

Cheers,

Giny

Well Soldiers am so sleepy i don't think will be able to join the dragons
My analysis for my pairs is

EUR-USD/JPY: you can short with a signal on 5 Mins during the Dragon session
make sure to put your stop and manage your deal

AUD-USD: the pair broke the4hrs cloud and all the smaller TFs show weakness
you may attempt small shorts but take care of the daily cloud it will act as a good support

wishing you all the luck

Hey guys,

I have a short signal on the USDJPY signal... candles are below the Kumo on the higher TFs, while the TSxKS crosses are in the direction of the short trade, they are within the kumo on some of the higher TFs which may make it a weaker short signal. All in all, I've placed my trade on with a 20 pip S/L and 50 pip T/P. We'll see how it goes!
