But you want it close but on one side or the other right? Not in the cloud correct?

I'm going to put my two cents in on answering the question based on what I do. I do it at current and give 5-10pips from top or bottom. Does that make sense by any chance? (Fingers crossed)
Yeah that's fine, but what I mean is on some of the longer term charts, we get Ts/Ks crosses maybe hundreds of pips away from the cloud. Now we could enter at the cross but that leaves a lot of pips to risk. I guess the better entry is to wait for a cross on a lower timeframe in those cases...

eg this on the EURUSD - not a great entry but a TS/KS cross nevertheless...

let's say your account is 10000$ and you want to risk 1% on a trade, that would be 100$, if your SL is 100 pips then your lot size would be 0.1 (0.1x100x10=100).
if your account is 1000$ if you want to risk 100 pips in SL then your lot size would be 0.01.
hope this clarifies the issue.

No, I'm not worried about the risk size or lots to put on - I agree that for trades with larger pip risk, you reduce the lots. What I am asking is whether we take the trade if the difference between where the Ts/Ks cross occurs and the cloud is large because it seems to me that it's not a very good entry. The best entry is a cross that occurs nearer the cloud.

Missed yesterday's movements again!!

It appears that all the major movements occur while I'm having dinner and relaxing at home.

Good MAE everyone.

I see the warriors definitely took to the battlefield while I slept and smashed some serious pips.

All I can say is:

When you let Ichi do the hard work for you then your only job is to collect the pips

Here is some charts to start you off the day:

Nikkei H4, E/J H4 and G/J H4.

Wish you green pips as always, hit me up traders!

Haha.... yeah, I know. On the plus side though, I made a long entry on the EURUSD based on the weekly chart, up by 30 pips so far, a small sliver of good news

Guys I am looking to see E/J go down from here and G/J go up, those H4 crosses will not play out directly there should be a retrace first to the zone where the cross occured.

Just a quick word that I can see some possible long positions developing on the EURUSD, AUDUSD and EURGBP, as well as a short position on the USDCAD.

But more often than not I get stung trading on these low volumes, so I'm waiting for the trend to develop a bit before entering with a modest T/P.

God bless,

Doc

hi
sorry i just saw your post .
there is always A+ and A and B setup.
the post i wrote was for someone who has no time to watch smaller TF and he has a daily JOB .
for sure an entry when the cross happen near the cloud is better as for ur question where to place the stop loss it is the cloud under your price in case of long not the future cloud .
here i want to say trading higher time frame need patience a lot of patience it is very boring and there are many ways to trade ichi on higher time frame not only the cross
one more word to say , waiting for a pullback and entering after it is almost always rewarding .
regards

So far, I have found better success with trade entries where the Ts/Ks cross is close to the cloud. You often get Ts/Ks crosses way above the cloud but whe we enter there, the stop loss is much further away - seems less likely to succeed as price will return to the cloud at some point, no?

ALso, one other question I had...when we place the stop on the other side of the kumo - do we place it at the current kumo point or the forecasted kumo 26 periods ahead?

E/G should pull back mate, if she run up from here during Tokyo means something is very wrong with the world. I would not play E/G during Tokyo hours.

Hi vic, G/J and U/J M15 looking very similar right now, good luck on the short, I not take it here, waiting for higher to short. I am not thinking Tokyo today will give up the pips so easy.

I got stung on some pairs yesterday because all the TFs didn't align... so I'll sit out of the USDJPY short for now.

Good luck Vic
