I re-entered USD/CAD short last night and also bought AUD/USD on the big daily hammer. Both trades are in profit and I will start looking at charts again tonight as I'm out for most of today.

i am entering this usdcad short with ny close.Price today went north into the cloud penetrating tnkan-kjun and 50 dma but failed to find big buyers above these aereas closing well bellow cloud forming a nice pinbar which is very bearish to me.overall pair is still consolidating bellow the 200dma, buti think this is a high probability entry lets see
This is probably the best thing about ichimoku!

Looking forward to adding ichimoku to my strategies in trading
Prefer H4 timeframe and going more towards D1 timeframe.

I see there is another thread too called ichimuko trade room too.

Is there a skype room too?

Thanks for all the contributions of members here with marvellous programming skills and other members with their support.

Just curious, why did you think this was an all star entry? Kijun and Tenkan were both flat and had been for a while which means price was consolidating or going sideways. Surely a close below the previous low of .9799 would have been a short set up.

AUDUSD daily,

I like the look of this chart, just waiting for the weekly to confirm, also, price is out of equilibrium with the tenkan and kijun by 200 pips or so, a pullback to these would be a great entry.

because price rejected both tenkan which is the short term 50% value and the descending trendline-next day i booked 1/2 of position and moved to be before market turns.i dont mind that lines were flat since price was bellow them.
I am trading price action on ichi levels than what ichi is doing itself,hope i helped!

What do you look for to enter? pin bars, previous swing highs or lows, pull backs?

Also, do you look at larger time frames for confirmation of the trend?

a little bit of everything ,canlde formations ,trendlines,i will take in consideration smaller time frames also and look for patterns to add to the probabilities such as wedges,flags,penants..i do a fast vsa analysis also ,its easy to spot huge buy or selling and that will add steam.it sounds like overanalysis but this is something i can do in a glance now for every chart.well i can say i use everything i know about trading and sum up the probabilities.i will only trade to the direction of daily chart if weekly agrees also.i use the 50,100,200 dmas also for s/r as they are very popular.My humble advise to everyone-organize your knowledge to a personal edge and you will be fine with trading

Something i`m looking at doing more is pairing up the strongest currency against the weakest and trading that pair. Sounds obvious but it`s never even crossed my mind before.

The indicator in the attached chart measures the strength of a currency against the other major currencies of the particular time frame, as you can see the JPY (brown) has been gaining strength for a while but the NZD (blue) has been getting weaker, so an obvious pair to trade would be the NZDJPY, we know which is the stronger/weaker currency so we are looking to short, a nice cloud break out would have given an excellent short opportunity.

chart 1 NZDJPY
chart 2 GBPNZD (gbp red line)

What are the good settings for ichimoku indicator for M15 to H1 or H4 time frame?


thanks
Ichimoku is a great trading tool for confirmation of trend at higher time frames - Day 1, H4.. On lower - H1, M30 etc... I don't use Ichimoku but other strategies as these are like day trading strategies and if you have a day job, it will be difficult to trade as you need to monitor the chart frequently.

With Daily charts, check once or twice a day for a few mins (during breaks). That's all the time you need. So, it all depends on what kind of trader you are, the mental make up, risks etc.. On higher timeframes, expect larger drawdowns and larger losses when you get stopped out. However, it all balances out and your large profits will compensate for those losses.
