On G/J: She hold above 150.5 at Tokyo open H1 but might not be able to break 150.8 to the upside.

We have seen plenty of times the gap will take all week to get filled it does not need to happen today or tomorrow!

Hi guys,

I have been thinking over the weekend a lot about using Ichimoku to trade the Nikkei 225, since the currency markets these days are pulled around by the nose from the indices. Does anyone have any comments or experience on this?

Hi guys,

As I informed everyone last week, I will be trading the usdjpy and gbpjpy exclusively in order to hone my ichi skills.

Vic and 4x, brilliant weekly reports on the usdjpy and gbpjpy respectively.

usdjpy - I am waiting for one of three things before looking at a short trade.

1. Price returns to the KS on the H4 TF at approximately 91.50 before resuming downward movement.

2. Price returns to the TS on the H4 TF at approximately 91.00 and tests it a few times before resuming downward movement.

3. Price continues downward movement, breaking the 90.00 psychological resistance and the 89.70ish resistance.

I will not be considering a long trade for a loooooong time.

gbpjpy - Tricky pair indeed. Intuition tells me to wait for a break of 149.00 before looking for a good short trade. However, a braver man could be entering a short trade as I am writing this.

Good luck to him. However, I will watch this pair through my sceptical glasses for the time being.

Once again, thank you to Vic and 4x as I have basically copied your thoughts!

Good luck to everyone for a week green in pips and full of growth as kumo warriors!

Giny

Edit: I am happy to report a very green short trade on the usdjpy on Friday.

Entry: 91.55

Exit based on SL trailing the KS on the M15: 90.55

Result: 100 pips.

I am interested in D1 trading for Nikkei, although the spread is same as G/J for my broker (8 points). Not interested in trading the DJ but maybe interested in D1 trading SP500. Interested in D1 trading Oil and Gold.

If we pick one index, gold, oil, trade USDJPY and GBPUSD using Ichimoku we should have essentially the entire market covered.

I am really interested in making a site www.kumowarriors.com so we can trade and discuss on there any instrument without being concerned solely with forex. I will try and make this website as soon as I get internet at home.

In the meantime, can you run some extra tests from say Jan09 - Current and Sept08-Nov08?

Will do. Lets concentrate on just one pair for now - The EJ works fr me.

Glad I didn't put a short on, good idea just to wait when the market opens up and shows her teeth.

God bless,

Yeah I saw that, I'd have a tight stop on that, I think the USDJPY and a lot of the movements we've seen in the past 2 weeks are going to turn around very soon.

I love opportunist trades though

God bless,

Hi fxScavenger, I think your broker uses different timezone so I will try and provide a fresh version for you to test in the next couple of days.

In the meantime can you run one last test from 2009/04/01 - 2009/07/30 and see if you get similar results to above, this will confirm or deny for sure your TZ.
Crash & Burn. Yup, must be the TZ.

extern int TZ = -7 // GMT (not sure of int)

Somthing along these lines.

Thanks for your patience and assistance so far fxScavenger. When I get home from work today I will modify the EA to allow externally configurable timezone without needing to modify the source and provide to you around this time tomorrow.

Wish I could do it myself but appreciate your help very much.
