I would drop from whatever higher TF I am trading to a much lower TF, and there you'll have your trend but within the range. It's just a matter of TF IMO.

CS cross — Hi, the Chikou span is supposed to be crossing the price curve, either from up down or from down up, in this case the strength of the cross depends on the position relative to the kumo. this is very clearly described in the strategy ...

And I commend you for your excellent observation, what you have started is a strategy that has been unused so far which is the CS cross. and brilliantly you have outlined a reasonable target (the lower red line) for your entry (the middle red line) ...

Chikou span cross target — it's a good defined target for a quick entry and exit but.... why stop so early when you can get so much more? the red lines are according to the CS target, the green dashedlines are flat kumo lines.

if that should happen, then go to higher TF and see why the move did not reach the KS, it might be a support or resistance level or a kumo or KS at the higher TF. remember, the senkou span A is the median point between TS and KS 17.5 periods in the ...

price retrace — Hi, there might be some repetitive pattern there, but if you notice there is a wide diversion between the TS and a flat KS, this means that the price is not at equilibrium and will tend to come back to the base line which is ...

Chikou span — the chikou span is bearish when it is below the price curve and bullish when it is above the price curve (26 periods ago), so in this case it is bullish. now if you meant the price is above the kumo or below the kumo that is ...

KS behavior — KS is the median of the highest high and lowest low for the past 26 periods, so a huge candle like that one would affect the direction of KS in a similar way, and if the next candles did not correct, then the KS would have ...

AU kumo bullish breakout — And here it is three hours later. it will probably correct so if you missed it you can re-enter on bounce from flat kumo.

Kumo shadows — kumo shadows are nothing but lines drawn from tops or bottoms of span A and B and will provide S/R levels for exit or TP. Edit: see how the chikou span honors those levels? this could be a very powerful tool for timing an entry ...

1.6501 — Hi Asher, when exactly did you enter at 1.6501? must have been way back in December? and you held on thru the huge retrace from 1.5831 to 1.6456 over the last 2 week?
