The best place would have been where the vertical red line is. Then you would have had no resistance level to overcome in any of the following timeframes - the 5m, 15M, H1, H4, and D1 and the target in the weekly was there to test.
See the images of the different timeframes below

Hi Fxripper,

It will be helpfull if there is an alert set on the cross of red and blue line.

On the cross of red line - Alert Sell

On the cross of blue line - Alert Buy

Just a suggestion

Happy Pipping

Chikou or 1 SMA or SR cloud break

OK I added two more items to try and improve the success rate of the chikou cloud break and cut down on fake breakouts.
3. 200 SMA must be sloping in the direction of the trade or be horizontal.
4. Kijun line must move in the direction of the trade at cloud break - not flat.

How to create a future Chikou or 1 SMA cloud

In the Navigator window of Metatrader select "Moving Average"
A new window will appear
Period: 1 Shift: +1
MA Method : Simple
Apply to: Close
Select the colour
Click OK

Repeat the above process....
To cut down on the risk with each trade
I changed the stop loss to the following.
At the high/low(short/long) of the bar before the breakout bar.

Be careful to enter a trade when this situation unfolds.
A chikou cloud break but the CCI200 not less than -50
For a moment it will try and trick you to enter with a cross of the CCI200 accross the -50 line and just as you entered without waiting for the bar to close price will start to move back to the flat Ichi kumo.

Hi all
Missed this strong xover on Friday. Still looks good though. Any thoughts on a late entry considering it has broken R1 and has already moved 100 pips?
By the way - where is everybody??

Price testing the trend line on the other side of the ichi cloud.

I'm new to ichimoku and would like to get your feedback if i am in the right direction.
Checklist:
1. Tenken crossing Kijun (indicated by yellow tick)
2. Price action below cloud
3. Chikou below cloud
4. Senkou Span B on top of Senkou Span A

Question is, the crossing is followed by a pullback, do we wait for the pullback or just dive into the trade?

And what about the flat-top of the Kumo? Does it matter?

Thanks!
