Analyzing Popular Currency Pairs with Ichimoku
Asano-san, with long experience in the investment industry, now works in investment-related video editing/production while efficiently seeking FX opportunities
The key to market analysis is Ichimoku Kinko Hyo. It helps determine the direction of potential trends and how long the current momentum might last, enabling a solid market view. Based on this, the main trading style is to catch the trend via breaks
Also, the currency pairs typically focused on are high-liquidity USD/JPY, GBP/USD, and EUR/USD
Seizing opportunities while maintaining main job
Asano-san conducts analysis and trading primarily on a large computer screen. When traveling, he checks rates and gathers news on a smartphone
Although balancing with a main job makes daily trading difficult, during the hour after the London market opens in Japan time and the two hours after the NY market opens in the evening, information is abundant and opportunities arise, so he follows charts as much as possible. It’s important not to miss big moves and to enter properly
