Ichimoku forever

  • Nov 14, 2011 1:13am Nov 14, 2011 1:13am
Manesh published his Ichimoku book last year. http://www.amazon.com/Trading-Ichimo...1261852&sr=1-2

I really enjoyed his book. He also gives seminars on Ichimoku. This is his website: https://www.ichimokutrade.com/

I am glad Ichi works for you. I also have my own journal here at FF. I am trying to truly understand the ins and outs of ichimoku.

Happy trading

Hi edmturk,
When I started trading Ichimoku (a while ago) I had never heard of Manesh Patel and the others and learned Ichimoku by myself which is why I trade it slightly differently.
Over the last few years I have tinkered and tweaked it so it fits my style.
I trade a few different time frames in this style and can be both long and short on a pair using different times frames (such as M15 and daily) but would be too confusing if I started to post if I'm long and short on any pair at one time.

[quote=fosking;5128946]Price looks like it will open around the level I was planning to get in at.
I would like to see a pull back up towards the 1.5600 to short now.

Gold looks like it could by lining up for a nice long at support around the 1,775 level.
I would be a little worried going long near the resistance without some kind of pullback and buying the top with a fake breakout.

Gold H1
Attachment
I stayed clear of the expected fake breakout and got my pullback to the ascending trend line.
Didn't take a long as I am already playing long AUD on my GBP/AUD short.
The steepness of the trend line is putting doubts into my head however as they are easier to break and would then have to rely on the next support level.

Taken a short on USD/CAD although the PA looks very choppy.
Tight SL just above the descending trend line.

After the sideways choppy action today, I'm still surprised to be in this short. Another test of the descending trend line has taken place.
I was stopped out on my GBP/AUD trade at break even earlier too, but after reviewing the trade, I simply got in too late and missed the 1.5650 short.
Hopefully we get some more direction over the next few days as I couldn't capitalize on the USD strength today.

I go short with NZD at M5 as all other higher TF confirm its down trend. My target is the major weekly support at 56.94. Any other advice?

A trade I will be looking at later this evening is GBP/AUD short on the daily.
I'm waiting for confirmation of a close below the cloud.
Last week it tested the purple resistance area and was rejected.
The only way this pair has gone since 2001 is down and I am looking for the same to come as the European debt crises starts to gather momentum again and money pours into safer assets such as gold which is highly correlated to the AUD.
The first real test for the pair should be right around the 1.5100 level which is the ascending trend line.
The recent high at 1.5816 was also right around the 0.618 Fib and forming a nice reversal pattern.
My stop is initially above the recent high but will be moved at the first opportunity to break even, or moved lower above the next lower high until break even.
I'm not using any TP order as I want to follow price down to maximize my gains and let any profit run.
Again, I will try to do that by using the last swing high as my SL level.

I don't know why this forum is still under evaluation. It is a great forum. It looks like not a lot of people are writing here.

In daily chart it is still above the cloud. Wait until all ichimoku parts are under the cloud including Chikou before you go short. However, in Weekly chart the price is touching the Senkou A (bearish) so it is at resistance.

If I were you I would wait.
My two cents.

Thanks.
