EURUSD 22 November 2011 Ichimoku Trading















Price had been trending lower in the early US session, below the kumo cloud.

Waited till after 0830h before placing the order.

1. The tenkan-sen was below the jikun-sen, and the price traded below the tenkan-sen. Placed a stop in order below the low of the price. It was triggered soon after.

2. Price continued to trade lower. Placed a limit order, it was not done, cancelled it thereafter.

3. Tenkan-sen cut above the jikun-sen, first signal of a possible reversal. When the price traded near the bottom of the kumo cloud, closed out partial position.

4. Price traded into the cloud. Chikou span also cut the jikun-sen at the same time. A stop loss order was already placed, position closed out.

Called it a day.
