Alright, on this one, it's a little more sketchy. You can't take Kumo flat lines lightly. I'll mark all the ones on my chart with a flat line. If it passes all those, I would feel a bit better about it..

WS168, You are doing a fantastic job, man. Your analysis of AUD/USD is on point. A thing that I've noticed just now that supports your position is the flat line Kumo bottom holding true as resistance. I have actually taken this short myself. If you ...

Short GBP/USD — Went ahead and put in a short order for GBP/USD @ 2.0351 with a S/L @ 2.0380. This is a bit of a riskier trade, so I might exit this quickly before the Cowboys game. 3-hour chart isn't great for short. Will post my reasons in ...

Draco, Don't get so caught up in the numbers. You can backtest all you want, but forward testing is what you should do. Demo this bad boy, and use different time frames instead of worrying about the #'s. I'm looking at your #'s, and I'm looking at ...

Hmm — Hey Draco, I'm not sure what problem you're talking about.. I've been trading ichimoku for a long time succesfully with Oanda's Ichi, and look at my chart... count 22 candles from price, they are gridded for you... The Kumo is shifted ...

AUD/NZD Opportunity — Alright guys, I do believe we may have a more immediate opportunity here at the end of this hour. Hopefully, you have brokers that offer AUD/NZD... I really would want to see price close below the flat line Kumo, but it's ...

Don't take this the wrong way, but if you are going to make an EA, please take your idea elsewhere(make your own thread). For one, I have stated from the very beginning the subjective nature of Ichimoku, and I don't want to be associated with the ...

Multiple Timeframes — Well then, where do I start? Let's just start with the standard belief of the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo. It is generally believed that the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo can only be used on longer timeframes(4-hour, daily, weekly, monthly, ...

A Sample Trade Continued: When to Exit — This trade turned out to be an easy one. If you had moved your stop with the Kijun-Sen, you would have probably maximized your profits. You would get stopped out when the price touched the Kijun-Sen. ...

Great link! It looks like there is a lot of awesome info there; maybe even more comprehensive than my explanation!

A Sample Trade: Looking for the Set-Up — This is hard for me to do since we have both predictive and lagging lines. What I did was create 3 charts. On the first chart, I have removed the Chikou Span so you can't cheat and see what the price is ...

Chikou Span — Chikou Span CURRENT CLOSING PRICE time-shifted backwards (into the past) B periods. The Chikou Span is important because it is the current price lagging behind the REAL, ACTUAL current price. What this is useful for is seeing ...
