Settings for the kumo in the video were 7/22/44.
The trading week used to have 6 trading days when Ichimoku was developed with it's standard settings of 9/26/52. Now we have 5 trading days. That comes a little closer to 7/22/44.
But you will find that various settings work out fine.
Just depends on your trading style.

Hey all I'm new here and this strategy / indicator looks pretty interesting. If all you do is buy when it crosses above, and sell when it crosses below, has anyone written a MT4 strategy to backtest it? If so I would be interested in seeing the backtest results. If not, then I'd be happy to write a quick strat up and post the backtest results here on various timeframes if anyone else would be interested in seeing it.

I would like to point out that Gann Hi-Lo (60) gives very close results and is much more sensitive than the cloud. Gann Hi-Lo is two simple moving average applied to both High and Low prices. Also with only one indicator, either Gann Hi-Lo or the Cloud, I would suggest a multi timeframe approach. If price crosses the indicator, check if it goes in the direction of a higher timeframe. It should give more winning probabilities. Even having to wait more, there are enough currency pairs to keep us busy

So NICE including the soothing music.

I note that there is very often a retrace from the first break above/below the kumo.

Do you wait for this second opportunity or bounce or generally or take the first break?

By the way to all, Oanda's standard settings are 7,22,44. IF you are just using the kumo these are very attractive.

So many people are always trying to modify Ichimoku . . . using the original product has stood the test of time quite well.

Blessings and thanks to you for introducing this Ichimoku forum.

I have always been surprised more do not utilize Ichimoku . . . perhaps it requires too much patience for many.

Of course, you are absolutely right, Zamanib.

I have been playing with your 4, 12, 24 during NY session today and will look at more completely. Certainly seem reasonable down at the M2 timeframe.

By the way traders, you can readjust your time with an indicator called periodcon. I'm sure a Google will turn it up. It allows you to convert a normal MT4 period to a higher one, here M1 x 2.

Best to all, Forest

If it works out good, i'll make a nice thread for it.

Hi zaminab
i follow your strategy from first and i test it in my chart . as i know u use 15pips rangebar chart am i right ?
when i run this strategy in this chart i see that in many situation we can not jump in to trade in correct time and after many of pips go away from our hand kumo break out and we can run into and of course in this time it is very risky trade and most of trade give loss . i want to say in my experience this method is more effective in 10PIPS range bar instead of 15pips . i want to know what do u think about my idea and any indicator or anything can help us to cover bad signals and ofcourse get correct trade in best time and reach as much as profit we can
