Use H1 chart and put 9,26,52 and another 36,104,208.
Not the best way at all.... if you switch to H4 your second Ichi-Indi will provide data for a 16h-day but not for a full day...

Better to use a multi-timeframe-ichi-indi!

Hi,

Thanks

Nightyhawk is a very solid programmer so I would trust his advice 110%.

NH - are there any of those indi's freely available you know of? I haven't mapped my charts like that before so have had no need for one.

Cheers.

Unfortunately my Indicator I thought of is quite a bit different... so I coded one quick and dirty for that... but this one has one big disadvantage... you can not use that nice filled cloud, which is in the prebuilt Ichi-Indi....

Within the indicator you have an extra Field called RelativeTimeFrame - setting this to 0 means, Indicator show Ichimoku for you chosen TimeFrame - every other value will increase the timeframe for Ichimoku... Example:

TIMEFRAME H1
--> RelativeTimeFrame 0 --> H1
--> RelativeTimeFrame 1 --> H4
--> RelativeTimeFrame 2 --> D1

TIMEFRAME W1
--> RelativeTimeFrame 0 --> W1
--> RelativeTimeFrame 1 --> MN
--> RelativeTimeFrame 2 --> no ichi present, no yearly data available

<...>
This is the thing, ichimoku is ONE of the methods that I use depending on the market direction at the time. Currently I am rarely using Ichi as we are consolidating at these levels. <...>
This is exactly where I came to recently. I started to apply more strategies together with Ichimoku, and my overall profitability has risen significantly.
I guess I needed half a year of pure Ichi-trading though to get really good at it, hehe, even though there are more and more tiny details I keep discovering in Ichimoku every day.
It's not always easy to realize quickly that if there was any always profitable strategy, everyone would be using it, but it comes with time.

Those were perfect trades you mentioned, man. I think you should start a fund-managing career.

yes you are right, if you do that way, you cant change the timeframe.

I agree Adrian. I would like to see the EU @ 1.33-1.3650 level before moving higher based on my other analysis but agreed that longer term unless the euro zone implodes we will see 1.50+

Inside the kumo just means market is undecided and will offer nice range trading on 1hr and 4hr tfs until it breaks. Reversal in kumo projection however suggests downside risk remains in the near term.

Nice analysis
Well Monthly kumo is offering good resistance. Monthly Kijun-Sen at 1.3509 right now. that is the line on the sand on a long term perspective... let's see how this candle closes.

Downside pressure persists so far...

here is Friday already... have nice weekend everyone!

Sorry for my english, I speak spanish.

I have two Ichimoku indicator in the same winndow, (9,17,26) and (36,68,104) this represents H4. (or H1 if I'm in 15 min, and so)

My setup:

1. Kumo Break H1 for the price and TS / KS.
2. Kumo H1, Kumo Sen (TS / KS) and CS move as a single line.
3. Kumo H4, H1 Kumo Kumo Sen (TS / KS) and the price are sorted and distant.
4. SS (56,20,20) is in the neutral zone and moves in a trade direction
5. SL is set above / below the Kumo H1. TP is set at higher graphics performance

ok..

step by step..

you use the double ichi only for the kumo, right? cikou, tenkan e kijun only the 9,17,26??

i don't understand very well the first 3 steps..

could you explain in more words??
1-wait for the break of the kumo, and a cross of tenkan and kijun in the same direction - right?
2-kumo in h1, tenjan, kijun and cioku moving all together, they seem the same line- right?
3-didnt understand
4-stockastic 56.20.20- neutral zone is 50, right?
5-ok

another question, you speak about h1 and h4, but you have in the image attached 30M... im a bit confused!!!

Hey Legalindo, nice trade.

Was the reason for the entry at 132.45 instead of 132.60 because of the flat line on the Kumo to the far left?

Thanks Ichi.

By the way, neutral zone is between 20 and 80

I see it as a short but am waiting for a monthly close below the 1.00 (parity) level at end of Nov.

This happens and I think we will see 90 and even 82 in extension.

Happy to wait though me
