Guys, I wouldn't put too much emphasis on indicators that give out percentages, especially to a system that can be traded manually 
Respect the Kumo...

Hey 
I just wanted to thank you all for sharing. I found a lot of precious information. Thanks
I just read the 800 first pages (not all of it of course), I learnd a lot.
Here is a question for you, Vic_elc ; I know you haven't post for a long time, but I hope you will see this post
First, you're a great man. I can't even imagine the time it took you to keep this thread alive.
I have had this question in mind for quite a long time, now. Vic, are you a full time trader ?! Coz' I know you wanted it badly 1-2 years ago. I just wondered. Did it happen man ? Did you quit your job to trade ?
Anyway, I hope you are where you wanted to be in your life
Keep up the good work guys
PS: I'm from Belgium, I'm not use to write in english...

Hi guys,i ve been using ichi for more than year now,so i think i start to undersdtand what is all about .I traded a lot with the rules you all know,crosses brake outs etc..etc...
Signals are all delayed as with all indicators.For example you can get a cross by the time price have already moved 100 pips then its simply to late to enter..you can not get in a trade just because you got a cross in most cases it will reverse against you
or when you get a kumo brake out,again you are getting in very late...in some cases it will work,but i think they are few..
so the problem about ichi signals is that they are far to slow to give you a good entry
BUT!
The great thing about ichi is that its a great S/R map!price really respects the s/r provided by ichi whether is t/s k/s or cloud.
how we can take advantage of this?
its very simple,one big guy said:sell and buy in a good price!
so,what i am looking for to trade?i am waiting a PULLBACK!
example:
in a strong daily downtrend,i see that price starts to pullback,m5 gets bullish and then m15 gets bullish.i dont care about these signals i dont want to go against daily downtrend.then price hits the top of m30 cloud which happens to be the bottom of H1 and mayby kjun of h4.then i start to load my gun,i see the price action,mayby a consolidation there, rejection of 4h kjun and pull the trigger!now i can say i am in,in a very good level,and that is a high probability trade with minimum stop loss above the resistance and maximum profit downside.You see,i will not wait for lower timeframes to clear,because i will lose the move.and additionally i believe that if price was capped by strong h4 resistance in a downtrend it will easily brake the support of smaller timeframes
that was just an example,it hasnt got to be like this everytime ,mayby you will wait for a pullback to daily tkan or kjun,and take the trade from there,but you got the idea i guess.
in few words i described something that is near to "swing trading" but using ichi to recognise S/R
hope it helps a little bit,thanks for reading

Hello,
I m a Part time trader but for the moment only a forward demo trader. I am not a newbie in the forexworld but still not find the system that works fine for me.
Adding to that,i have a daily job,so i am not able to watch the screens every time. So for me 4H timeframe or also the Daily timeframe is ok.
So my question after reading the first 10 pages,wihich pages should i also read to be up to date with your strategy. For the moment i read the first 1000 posts,but really it is too much to read the last 15000 posts
For the moment i use a similar Ichimoku Kinko Hyo system :http://forex-strategies-revealed.com...kh-ha-strategy
So please comment this post,so that i can join you on the futures trades and lso post some trades and contribute on this thread.
16000 posts,whauuuuuuuwwww
