An introduction to Ichimoku
We’ve got a special treat for our members coming on January 5, 2010: Arco is making an instructional video showing you tips how to read and trade with Ichimoku.
This will only be made available to people who are members on 5 January – we’ll send you a special link where you can watch the video online.
If you’re new to charting this is going to give you a huge insight into how to pick the types of trades we do. And, even if you already know something about Ichimoku, you may still pick up a few tips and tricks.
Please bear in mind the $10 trial special we’ve been running ends on January 12, 2010, so if you’re not a member now, ask a loved one to get you a membership for Christmas! 
Thanks
Darren
Hello Arco,
There is a great thread on Ichimoku trading with different ways to trade off it and different time frames on Forex factory. I think this may be very beneficial to other members.
Here is the link to the forum.

I for one am looking forward to this! I am learning as much as I can about Ichimoku, so I think I understand the different components of the indicator. What I would like to know is how to use it, especially how Arco uses it!
Speaking of which, Arco do you use a mix of technical/fundamental techniques? I am interested in how you project those purple lines in your charts. Im guessing it has more to do with experience than anything, but when I see how you expect a slight reversal but then a huge drop/rise, Im lost to explain HOW you got that lol
Hi Peter. I will be discussing all the various components in detail and explaining what they are showing on the chart. Re the question – I use technical 100% because the chart is the whole market, whereas fundamental info can often be conflicting.
Can’t wait for the instructional video. I’m sure it’ll be interesting. Great site on Ichimoku
