Yes I will do that but someone else may decide the risk is to high and not take the trade at all. It also depends on what is going on in the higher timeframe.(I have not looked at it - only selected a good example) A personal decision I presume.

Very good idea Here's what I think. If you are in 5 M and a nice strong cloud break with a flat kumo next to it. Go to the 1M and the moment you have a tenkan turnaround in the 1M you enter counter trend trade and then exit as close to the 5M kijun ...
