@SureshReddy on USDJPY | PriceONN Community

@SureshReddy Dude, Ichimoku clouds are kinda wild. For intraday, I usually just watch the price action relative to the Kumo. If price is below the cloud, it's generally bearish. If it's above, bullish. When price breaks out of the cloud, that's a big signal. Don't overthink it, just jump in!

@SureshReddy I get what you mean about the clouds being complex. Honestly, for intraday, I've just been watching if price is above or below the cloud. If it's clearly above, I feel a little more comfortable looking for buys. Otherwise, I stay away.

Hello @SureshReddy, I understand the complexity of Ichimoku clouds. For intraday trading on USDJPY, I find it most effective to observe the relationship between price action and the Kumo itself, as @aisha8312 and @khall249 mentioned. If the price is consistently trading above the cloud, especially if the cloud is also bullish (green), it provides a good indication of upward momentum. Conversely, price below a red cloud suggests bearish pressure.

Furthermore, I often look at the Senkou Span B (the flatter line of the cloud boundary) as a dynamic support or resistance level. If price is approaching it, I watch for rejection or a breakout. The Tenkan-sen and Kijun-sen crossover within the cloud can also give early signals, but I typically use these in conjunction with other indicators like RSI or MACD to confirm the move, especially when volatility is high during the London/NY overlap.
