How I Trend Trade (5)

Hi Ichi, thanks. Could you elaborate more on how to use the static and dynamic vales of KS for entry.

Hi

Static and dynamic values are used to calculate 2 things:
1. Entries
2. Stop loss levels

Choosing one or the other depends on market strength

Can you elaborate a little more on how market strength effects why you would choose Static over Dynamic or vise versa. I am a little confused since bother are KS and being such would make them theoretically 50% retracement levels. Which if I understand your previous slide correctly would signal if price is there the trend would be weaker.

Thanks in advance

Dynamic KS considers price without considering time
Static KS consider time without considering price

Static KS values are what the market sees and trades but if the market moves without visiting them, it is impossible to get a position so considering the dynamic value would come in handy at that time

There are other applications as well but a bit too complex to answer here. Maybe i'll do a slide for them some day

Awesome that clears up a lot for me.

Thank you

How do I add the ichimoku like yours because I get weird colours whereas your one is really clear. I don't get the KS, options or anything similar in the dialogue box. Do you use programming to design your own? If not, please guide me. Thanks

look for cm enhanced ichimoku

good luck

Excellent presentation, thank you!
It seems as if you use KS also as a momentum indicator, however in the classic viewpoint of Ichi, the momentum indicator is the TS.
Do you use them in combination or you rely only on the KS?
I use sometime multiple ichi (two) on the same chart to have an idea of the behaviour of different timeframes: if you would do that how would you interprete the two KS?

Thank and my best compliments

Thank you

Ichimoku is an integrated trading system. The more you know the better you are but even if you have a basic understanding of how to use the KS you will be profitable.

The issue of momentum is a dangerous one to discuss because it has different meanings depending on the current market structure and conditions. So it is not a general concept that you can apply to every situation. Accordingly, the element you use for measuring the momentum may differ in ichimoku.

As for using multiple timeframe analysis or adding another ichi on top of the original that really just complicates things without necessity because ichi already gives you multiple TF views of the market. Also, we have to remember why we are using the system, it is to analyze the market and choose entries and exits and what ichi offers in terms of those requirements is much more than you will ever need.

Good luck

Could you elaborate on how to choose the TPs using ichimoku?
