Mario, If you go to the thread "Big Income from a Small Account- i min Time Frame" you will find a lot of trades on 1-2 min candles.

I've never traded this with ha candles, but I don't see any reason why you couldn't.

What ever you are comfortable using is what you should use.

I have re entered once the price broke kijun sen, but my sl was too tight i guess, otherwise it was a good trade.

Sybolid, Then I just look at charts. I have 2 work spaces set up for this system 1 for futures and 1 for FX. I use 8 24" monitors 2 charts per monitor so I can keep and eye on 16 charts easily.

Last trade for me jumped back on USD/CAD, should have jumped back on cad/chf also but missed it.

The candles are HA candles of 0.0005 pip range bars as the base.

Nicely done Kthrapp, post the small losers too we learn just as much from them as from the winners.

Here are my losing trades on GBP/USD. Keep in mind I had just sat down at the computer. Price had pulled back from pervious high so I bought the dip. But it went no where and I did not have a good feeling about the price action so I closed at -1.2pip loss. As the AO was turning below 0, and my other indicators were weak I sold. but the PA was just jumping around with out direction after that so I closed the second trade at a loss of -5.1 pips and moved on. liked the USD/CAD chart better.

Hi,

i see that my ichimoku cloud is different than yours Rockypoint, do you use 9, 16 instead of default, right? What is the third number? I tried 9,16,52 but it is different than your chart.
Also the range bar looks different, any idea?

Thanks,
Syl

I can't speak to the Ichimoku, but range bars will look different between platforms, and even different people using the same platforms depending on how much history you have, when you opened your charts, data provider, etc. Also, it looks like the range bars ToS have are "no-gap" range bars, but yours are not. I've found that a 6pip no-gap range bar is very similar to a 5pip gap range bar.

(If there is a gap after the bar closes and the new bar opens, the "no-gap" version will artificially fill that gap, whereas gap, or traditional range bars, will show an open space between the previous close and the current open). For metatrader, there is an EA range bar maker that makes gap range bars, and there is an range bar Indicator that makes no-gap range bars. The "Range Bars EA new format" is a gap / traditional range bar; "Range Bar Chart" is an indicator that creates no-gap range bars.

Sybolid, my setting are 9,16, 52, please note that I black out the chikou 52 line because I don't think it adds any thing to a day trading system.
TOS doesn't let you alter chikou or I would've experimented to see if it could be helpful.

Hi Rockypoint,

this is my setting for ichimoku 9,16,52, but it looks different, i don't know why.
Even the Awesome oscilator looks different!
