on chart 3 kumos 15 60 & 240 (blue , white , red (lol) )
the 240 is below prices , so look only for longs , break kumo and
wait for CCIs confirmation
(best when 2 cci v7 cross zeroline), and Take profit at each hedge of diff kumos
what do you think ?

use mtf ichi V1 ; 3 times

Price went into cloud giving me a nice pull back in PA

5min ha went green from red
15min ha was green telling me longs only

CS was above cloud telling me longs only

Entry 1.2219

I then close at a profit or a loss when the 15min HA goes red.

Closed at 1.2277

Profit 58 pips

No re entry into cloud so no new signal

cheers

3 trades in my Uk window +77pips very little draw down

if you look at the chart now CS isabove cloud so no shorts..what we want is the price to now rally into the cloud with the CS below it allowing shorts.

We then need 15min HA red which it is and then the 5min HA to go from green ( which it should do with a rally) and then red to trigger the short

cheers

last signal although not quite complete every thing lined up except that price didnt go into the cloud giving us a green light for the pull back but serves as a good last example of a signal

the X denotes where the 15min HA went green and so closed our short for a very small gain of 3pips ....but notice how price rallied

Please with the signal on low vol at the end of the week and the 15min HA giving us a small profit and closing us out of a trade going against us later on

Hi Paulus,

I just wondering lately are you still using this method and about to ask you. I'm glad now that you've posted some of your last trades. So, I know that you are still using it and good to know that it is still profitable. Good job
Are you using it on a live account?

hello Jay
nice to see you around the thread, abut you question i'll try to explain in brief
Ichimoku is a trend following system , so the best thing to do is to trust it in the exit as we trusted it in the entry
below example might help showing my point
Hey bro
About 3 months since u r last post and that not good
Hope everything is fine with u, Hope to see u around soon or drop me pm to know all is ok

Wish u all the best

Thanks Dennis.

Of course, the stop depends on the style. I just wanted to check with the Ichimoku-ites(is that even a word?) if what I had in mind was crazy, suicidal, or worse.

Welcome to Ichi System, Nice to see u here
Thanks egkid. I have been using this system with success. I'm just staying on the sidelines of this thread as an observer and throw in the odd question.

My biggest weakness is with the exit strategy but I'm getting better at it.

Yep it's very good system but have a lot of secrets and that take sometime

In my opinion Beside main rules with "TS, KS, Kumo,CS,Trend direction"
SL depends ur TF + which pair u trade.
Best thing can help where to put SL Look to higher TF if u trade 4h Look on Daily , If u trade Daily look to weekly

I mostly enjoy e/u and g/u if u have question with them i will be happy to discuss about it.

perfect daily trades few and far between but if you monitor several swaps you will get enough very decent signals

Daily signal here all conditions for the trade are met

The close is when the bottom weekly HA goes green..it was red when the short signal was triggered

very nice gain of over 700 pips

On eurusd, I'm waiting for a better sense of direction.

The long and short of it (pun intended) is to wait and see which side of the kumo the candle will emerge from.

Up until Thursday, I was under the impression that I was about to go long. Then Friday's London and New York sessions came and unraveled that plan.

Well said bro ,
inside the kumo is consolidation between 1.23 - 1.2780, Waiting is wise.

very slow in mychosen trading window on eurusd

1signal for a short at 13.25pm went to 16 pips and then closed for -2 as the 15min ha went green

In a long now triggered at 16.50pm uk time at 1.2572 all criteria met and now waiting for 15min ha to go red to close currently up 20 pips on the position

On a day when high to low from 8am ( my start window) to now has only been 48 pips im quite pleased

only 1 trade so far I will explain the setup and criteria..it is the only signal today so far since my 8am start ( uk time)

15min

Green on the HA ind at the bottom at A telling me 15min trend up so look for longs only

5min

Price was above cloud but then pulled back into it ( blue rectangle)giving me a mechanical green light for a pull back this is a definite requirement of the setup process ,at this point we have identified a 15min trend is in place the price going into the cloud gives us a pull back in that trend

CS above cloud at point 1 telling me that recently the price was above the cloud resistance when 5min HA turned from red to green at B

We enter

we close when the 15min HA goes red with a profit or a loss atm the position is up 95 pips

cheers
