However, taking a look at how the EUR/USD http://www.fx360.com/App_Common/images/chart-icon.gif and USD/JPY http://www.fx360.com/App_Common/images/chart-icon.gif traded after all of the FOMC announcements made this year, we can report no consistency other than the fact there is generally a tremendous amount of volatility.
Hi SM,

Yep took note of that, appreciate it, due to the confirmation of the ichi signal on the E/U, plus the interest rates likely to remain, i took the E/U when there was some retracements.

as for the U/J, i knew it was a risky one as there were no real ichi signals. It was just based on the S/R of the 4 hr kijun hence its 50-50.

thanks for the feedback!

There is a bounce off the 4hr Ks on the EURGBP...worth looking at and keeping an eye on for some H4 or H1 crosses.
I suspect a big retrace at some point though because of the recent big move.

Waiting almost a week for the H4 cross and now seems to have a double top... What will be your criteria to enter long on this trade?

I like that it's come so close to the Ks. Less pips on the losing side And the last high was passed by 15pips which to me who knows almost nothing, would indicate this is a retracement and will continue. I'll be jumping in on this again with a stop 35 less the K if the 4hr closes above the K.

All opinions are those of the participant and do not reflect those of the thread lol

EDIT: It's now at the K and a 50% and 64% fib level on the 4hr and the very close to the cloud span. Just saying Lots of convergence wanting this thing to shoot back up

Did any of you guys see that DJ move today.

The DJ started dropping like a rock, and 2 minutes later the AUDUSD took off after it.

I see the AUDUSD track with the DJ for a long time now, almost a year.

Do any of you know why they track so close?

I don't know specifically about the DJ correlation but at 1815-1830GMT there was the FOMC statement. All USD pairs went nuts.

A slightly strange question but my broker gives me the option of an 8hr chart.
Obviously, this is in between the daily and the 4hr and on the GJ this showed me a sell with a Ts/Ks cross at about 150.60.
Any opinions on 8hr charts? I doubt many traders look at this timescale.

Simply will enter after this pullback is over, this will be noticed as follows
-1hr :the price will start jumping above the Kumo again followed by Ts Ks.the span shall be able to clear the PA

-4hrs: if Ks managed to hold we will see the span out from the PA again
then the price shall jump above Ks.

this what will make me go long.

but what if after 1 week waiting this scenario didn't happen i'll not be with my money in this pair , i am following more pairs now using the same rules so for sure there will be another chance some where , at least i was not with my money in the wrong place

Ichimoku is a trend following System , it clearly shows you the real trend and the entry signal, all you need to do is surf the pairs and hunt your entry

have a nice day

Hi Bud,

Thanks for the response.
Over the past year, I could get up in the morning see how the Dow was doing and Knew what my Ausi$ & AusiKiwi trades were doing. It's been uncanny to me. There is probably a reason the Fundalmental Guys know.

Another Question -

FxPro Market Watch time 23:00 Cyprus

GMT Time 20:00 GMT

My Time USA West Coast 13:00 PDT = minus 7 GMT

Is Cyprus +23 GMT or minus 3?

It's in Dealbook. They have all sorts of weird timeframes including 45mins, 50, 3mins, 8mins, etc.
You can do this in Metatrader actually but you need a period converter to sort everything out for you. Kind of pointless as most traders don't use them but I thought 8hrs might occasionally be useful for when we're expecting either a Daily or 4hr cross and sitting around twiddling thumbs.

If it's that good a correlation then use it as an indicator and trade only that and get your millions
It's not that abnormal as these things are linked. If FTSE goes up in UK, so does the £ but the effect is usually instant in that case. You can also say £$ follows €$ but the correlation is never that exact.
Cyprus is +3 GMT, hence why if it's 20:00 in GMT, Cyprus is 23:00

Price should retrace to 0.8600 or 0.8550 before a continuation of the long trend. Any thoughts?

That's my own indicator, not fully finished yet.
You can also find some existing ones in the Warriors' resources folder - try the link at the bottom of vic elc's posts.

We just got a cross down on the GBPUSD Daily chart. I'm in for the long run on this one.

The cross on the GBPUSD of course is threatened by this tight range the pair has been in since May/June. The question is do we wait for it to clear support or enter now?

Ok, I've read this entire thread. And I mean the entire thread.

The question I have is what specifically do you consider about the higher time frames above the 5M?

Do you only go for a long on the 5M, for instance, if the higher time frames are all above their kumos? Or do you just put lines where the bottom of their kumos are and make sure you aren't going to run into them before 50 pips?

What very specific things does the OP look at in regards to the higher timeframes?
