Diary of a Trend Trader(Ichimoku Kinko Hio System)

#2
Hello fellow board members, I have been trading for like 10 months now, from now on I will try to post my trades here with my logic for entering the trade, your valuable suggestions are most welcomed.
Thanks. But will you post your trades based on Ichimoku Kinko Hyo system and with charts. I will love to learn Ichimoku system, not the basics (I know the basics) but some advance studies. Thanks

Trades -17/3/2015

BPCL FUT shorted @ 748.90
Covered @ 746
Reason- 38.2% Fib. level at 750 and Kejunsen at 744 on both 5 and 15 min chats, generally I have observed that when Kijunsen is same in 2 or more time frames, then that level is most likely tested.
9.17-9.19

AsianPaint FUT Shorted @ 839.80
Covered @ 838
9.32-9.33

Pull Back Trade
Shorted Hindalco Fut @ 131.50
Covered @ 131.15
No movement in next 15 minutes hence exited the trade
10.20-10.35
Reason-
Shorted at fractal level as markets have tendency to touch fractal levels and come back, also nine succesive highs were made.

Silver May FUT
Long @ 35340
Sold @ 35360
21.57-22.24

Again Long @ 35340
Sold @ 35378
22.37-22.52

Reason-
Silver gave a quick upmove 3523 to 35649, 50% of that retracement was around 35340, hence I played around that level.

Hello there I will try to post charts as and when possible, all my trades are not based on Ichimoku System but most are, frankly I myself don't know if I have any advance knowledge on this subject so will try to share all that I can and maybe you can share some things from your side.
Hope to keep listening from you.

Which software are you using for Ichi charts ? Which indices do you track ? Do you trade indices or individual scrips ?

Hello timepass,I trade using Amibroker, sometimes I trade on Nifty futures but mostly on Nifty50 stocks, other then that I trade in MCX mostly on Crude Oil and Natural Gas.
Due to the volatile nature of Natural Gas it gives opportunity almost everyday and I trade in it a lot mostly using the hourly chart candles.

Thanks for the reference.

Such fast trades were only possible because market became really volatile during the downnfall.

Bought 1 lot Crude @ 2673
Sold @ 2683
18.48-18.56
Reason-Risk to reward was good as SL-2666
And 2669 was a stong fractal level alreday tested at at 5.54 where it gave reversal by forming a bullish engulfing pattern.
