Ichimoku forever

  • Nov 17, 2009 8:40pm Nov 17, 2009 8:40pm
My first post here. Just wanted to put my 2 cents in: I've been trading for 3 years, first time tried ichimoku per rules here. So far so good on all pairs. I have made a few adjustments to make it more conservative. One week results are all wins. But, I'm sure there will be losses, so hopefully it will average positive.

Thanks,

Hi Hyer-FX,

Care to share the amendments you have made to the rules?

Hi Hyer-FX,

sure, instead of "Once our deal is unfolding we will move our stop with the kijun line", I setup the S/L at 20 pips beyond the kijune line. I also booked profit at 1/2 s/l. In other words, if my s/l was 100 pips away from my position, I took profit at 50 pips from the position. I'm working on a couple of other options too.

You can personalize any rule to your level of comfort.

Thanks,
Hyper-fx

Hi Hyper-fx,
Your entry based on just 1H or 5M with confluence of higher TF and wait for the strong cross? Which KS do U take reference to? Just wish to learn more. Thanks.

EU, NU, AU all look to be forming nice 4hr candles.
Any thoughts on these trades?
EU: bounce off D1 Ks
AU: bounce off kumo and low from about 12 candles ago
NU: bounce off 4hr Ks.
EU: currently +62 and SL at break even (bounce off Daily Ks)
AU: +22 (bounce off 4hr kumo)
NU: +20 (bounce off 4hr Ks)

Anyone who trades the longer timeframes, drwasho, etc.
What do you use as your entry signals?
To be honest, the above 3 trades were using ichi indicator lines but in conjunction with candle stick patterns where the daily trend has already been established for a long time.

Ok, I am short UJ again on the 1hr kumo breakout.
D1, H4, H1 trends all down.
SL 89.66
If it cannot clear 88.70-88.80, I'm out.

yes this is what in my mind now, i was isolated in the 1hr only testing and made these results , i was thinking of doing this following only the main trend on 1hr , i think it will be great

1hr kumo breakouts?
It is not the point of the breakout , the point is only one signal to be taken . this is what i have noticed ,if you follow the same signal as an entry you will be amazed that on the long run it will cover your money and will make you a lot of profit ,
i think we all need to back test our signals again and decide which signal to use with what pair , and test it for a year or two.
i'll be doing this during this weekend , i'll try to come out with 5 or 6 pairs and each signal to use in everyone , and then this will be the style of my trades .
P.S this style will be very helpful if you divide the risk on several pairs

thx Vincy ,
nice to see u around again

yeah this test was done only following the 1Hr TF , but with some fine tunning and following the main trend on the daily chart will be very helpful
am gonna test this pairs again during this week and next week , also i'll be testing more 3 pairs, but this time i'll be following the main trend from the daily chart, also thinking of fixed TP for each pair according to the average moves
i'll be posting all the results in here
have a nice week
