Hey Guys
Back from a week off and glad to see this thread still going strong.
Anyone mind giving me a very brief update of how ichi did over the past week?

Hope you are all well

Looking at gbpjpy, do you think a cross on the 15m will be a good signal if Cs clears the price curve, as we have had a close below the weekly Kumo?

Hey ab1

Im a bit concern by the strong down move earlier so I guess your advice to wait for a close below 140.65 is sound, as this would confirm the continuation of the trend

Thanks

Someone agrees with what ive said !..........yippee

Advice would a be strong word to use...lol ...If ive given it, I am but a novice currently in this market place.

But from what Ive learnt so far any trade other than short on this pair given the overall picture of sentiment currently would be risky, no impossible but just risky!

A better one to watch for me at the moment is the EURUSD, I waiting for that to close above 1.4646 on M5 to enter long myself.

cheers

Hi mate,

Welcome to the thread.

All you need is on archive that you refer to in your link.

Please make sure you read all the first 10 thread pages and if you are really serious about trading with us in the longer term make the small term investment in yourself and read the full thread.

It might look like a big task however it isn't, it's a fantastic way to see how to trade and most importantly almost any question that you could ever want to ask is in there and answered by a member of the kumo warriors or one of our other many committed ichi...
Hello!
Sir...Im really glad to read your answer. Thanks for your inderstanding and inviting! Now..I will read all docs, that i have and of course this theard.
I will be with YOU in the same boat very very soon!
The English is not my own language, and I have some language barer, but all, that YOU write I understanding
What I like in Ichimoku, that this Indicator very very composite with Price Action (james16 theard), If we will carefully analyze Ichimoku, that we can find S/R lines by reading Ts, Ks, KUMO. And bar patterns near Cumo, Tenkan, Kijun......I think, when we can find some very strong pattern (Pin-bar, BEOVB, Inside Bar etc) near Ts,Ks, Kumo....its very strong signal......
I learn signals of indicator to the history GBPUSD, and find to much bar patterns, when Ts cross Ks, when price pullback, retest border of KUMO..e.t.c
Therefore for me Ichimoku very very very Intresting!
What do u think?

Ichimoku Forever!
Cheers

Seems like a boring day ahead

Anyone watching Cable?.. do you think shorting around 1H ks.. and 4H ts is a good idea?

Hi all

I am wondering if this would be considered a set up. Price bullish on the D tf and we have a cross above the Kumo on the 5min.

Any thoughts?

Cheers

Hi,

I agree with you that often bar patterns seem to coincide with the ichimoku S/R areas.

These are certainly something that I watch carefully and use as an extra confirmation that price may be reversing etc.

This is certainly something that you can use as a double check however these candle formations normally just act to reduce your draw down upon entry on ichi based trades and I normally wait for the ichi signal to arrive and if I notice certain previous candle formations that support my trade it gives me extra confidence to enter them.

Cheers.

Ezzy:
Your doing great seeing stuff using ICHI; it takes a while to see it all quickly.

After a few weeks I now can see much more naturally; I hesitate to say its easy but truly believe one day soon it will be.

God bless you and your trading.

Hi Steve

And thanks for your encouragement and kind words. I must say, since reading ichimokuwiki I can understand this system better. I will stick with it, and as you say hopefully it will be easy.

Lost 15 pips at open of this weeks session when I entered a 1h ts/ks cross short with chikou-sen below price with upper TF supporting this. Only problem was cloud very narrow (meaning look out for range bound or consolidation). I ignored this skiny cloud since after all, Gjpy moved over 100 pips and I missed it.

Don't chase fools gold and stop jumping in to trades Steve.

The only good thing I did was close at top of 1h cloud when I realized I was screwed to the wall for many hours to come.

PS: Echf needs to move out of its consolidation before looking for a trade. This is a slow mover to start with and I should know better.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

I'm not sure I can accept never trading on Monday's or Fridays as I see good signals but I must listen to warriers too so open to any reasonable suggestion.

Just watch out for Fridays with major news reports:
NFP
interest rates, etc.
last Friday of month (bank profit taking for monthly targets)
Quadruple witching Fridays.

Most Fridays are not that erratic, some traders close out trades for the weekend but this isn't until Friday lunchtime usually.
If I have had a good week, I don't trade Friday at all because I don't want to spoil the week. If I am down or breakeven, then I will trade Friday.
It is up to you, most traders are split 50:50 on whether trading Fridays makes any difference at all to their methods.

Sir...I read about Ichimoku, parametrs of Ichimoku..and what I think about it.
The parameters are calculated based on the cycles of the market activity.
For example, 1H TF: 12 - half day, 24 - day 144 - 12 days
For example, parameters for different TF:

 

  1. M5 72-144-288
  2. H1 12-24-120 or 120-240-480
  3. D1 5-10-20 or 9-26-52

What do u think?
Sorry if you really speak about parametrs so ofthen.....but I can't find the basis, that 9,26,52 GOOD for fny TF smaller, than 1D
Sorry...Really Sorry! But If u can, plz repeat again
Thanks!

Hi this is my first post in this fantastic thread. I have been using ichi for about 8 months and vouch for it. I find it the best tool to give you instant information.

Stevewide you manage to keep your stop losses much tighter than me. I am currently in that trade with a SL at 1.513.

Everyone keep up all the great work this is a great thread for getting feedback and excellent market analysis
