BTC/USD - Ichimoku V Calculation, P Wave, Price & Number TheoryThis is an educational post analysing BTC/USD 1 day chart using a mixture of Goichi Hosoda's Ichimoku Ichimoku Kinko Hyo System, Cloud, Number Theory, Price, Time and Wave Principles and introducing you to these methods if its your first time hearing about them. I have been experimenting with the entire Ichimoku System so I hope that you find this post interesting and helpful.
The Basics:
BTC is still in the Bearish Zone under the Ichimoku Cloud Equilibrium Zone on this 1 day timeframe.
The Ichimoku Cloud Conversion Line (Tenkan Sen) is indicating that the MID-POINT of the SHORT-TERM momentum is sideways at the moment.
The Ichimoku Cloud Base Line (Kijun Sen) is indicating that the MID-POINT of the MID-TERM momentum is sideways at the moment.
The Ichimoku Cloud Lagging Span (Chikou Span) is indicating that moment at the moment is sideways. Note that the Lagging Span (Chikou Span) is still under the price from the past.
Moving on from the Basics and on to more advance Price, Time, number and Wave examples:
Using The Ichimoku Price Theory V Calculation V= B+(B-C) and changing it to Negative so it becomes V=B-(C-B)
Our first Pivot point is A at $68,990 which serves as our base or plateu.
Our second Pivot point is B at $32,926 and is part of the calculation.
Our third Pivot point is C at $48,462 and is also part of the calculation.
Using the Calculation V=B-(C-B) we have:
(C) $48,462 - (B) $32,926 = $15,536.
(B) $32,926 - (C-B) $15,536 = $17,390.
Note that at the time of typing this, BTC’s low is around $17,695 which is pretty close to $17,390. So is this the bottom??? Probably not, because BTC is also in a Bearish P Wave as indicated by the light blue Descending I Wave and 2 Converging Trend-lines. This is the second Bearish P Wave that BTC has been in recently on this 1 day timeframe as can been seen from the previous light red Bearish P Wave.
Note that I have used a V Calculation because the C is just past the 50% Fib re-tracement level. Ideally it should be at the 61.8% fib level between A and B but because its past the 50% it is slightly short but way too long to be a N, E or NT calculation so V will suffice.
Note that the Price Targets are potential price targets which can lead to continuations or sometimes fail. In some respect, they are points where you may want to take profit or not.
After many years of mathematical study, Goichi Hosoda finally settled on a set of numbers for his Number Theory, these numbers are, 9, 17, 26, 33, 42, 65, 76, 129, 172, 200~257. Note that 56 is not part of these numbers. These numbers are called Kihon Suchi and are used to project how many days, hours, mins (depending on what timeframe you are in) ahead a new High or Low, reversal ect may likely to occur using this Ichimoku Number Theory System.
With Ichimoku number theory/time span, we don’t need to be 100% accurate with the numbers. Note that the distance between A and B is 75 bars, that’s 1 less then Goichi Hosoda’s 76 but that is absolutely fine with this system. Finding actual patterns is more important.
Note that this V calculation could be lasting 257 Bars.
We can see that from our BTC high at A we had 75 Bars until our low at B.
We had 64 Bars from B to C but 65 Bars crosses over and leads close to a drop.
From 2 Bars after C we have 42 Bars with a new low and the start of the Converging light red P Wave Trend-lines.
I have added 26 Bars from the start of this recent downwards momentum, I have also added 33 Bars so only time will tell if a pattern emerges with these.
I have not overwhelmed this chart with timespans and numbers, I have only added at places that caught my interest, and as can be seen on this chart, some of Goichi Hosoda’s numbers have been at points or close to points when things have happened to the price.
So using the Negative V Calculation along with the P Wave, Timespan and Number Theory would have served you in good stead if you were shorting just after the price crossed B when moving from C especially as we have not finished the 257 Bar cycle yet.
I hope this post has been helpful and informative and has shown you that the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo is so much more then just the cloud, it has its own Wave, Time, Price and Number Theories which i am by no means a master as i'm still a novice but i’d thought id share what i have been working on. I will hopefully update this post with more examples whenI have free time.
I hope that this has been helpful.
Notes:
Ichimoku Cloud Conversion Line = Mid-Point of the Short-Term Momentum.
Ichimoku Cloud Base Line = Mid-Point of the Mid-Term Momentum.
Ichimoku Cloud Lagging Span = Actual Momentum Direction right now.
Ichimoku Cloud Leading Span A (Senkou Span A) = Green Line on edge the Cloud.
Ichimoku Cloud Leading Span B (Senkou SpanB) = Red Line on edge the Cloud.
Equilibrium Zone = In-between the Cloud.
Bullish Zone = Above the Cloud.
Bearish Zone = Below the Cloud.
V Calculation = A,B,C,D pattern.
P Wave = Red and Blue Converging Trend-lines.
Note that P Waves can be seen as Goichi Hosoda's version of Bullish and Bearish Pennant patterns.
Note that the Blue Bar Lines on the chart are not support and resistance lines, they are just showing the distance between 2 points using Goichi Hosoda’s Numbers.

Bullish Cardano with IchimokuCardano is bullish by Ichimoku confirmations
-price is above Tenkan Sen, Kijun Sen, SSA and SSB, meaning bullish market sentiment in short, mid and longterm.
-Tenkan Sen, Kijun Sen and SSA are up, meaning bullish trend in short, mid and short to midterm.
-Chiko Span is above the candles, meaning bullish market momentum.
-Kumo has thickness, that is great for better stability
Price is moving in an ascending triangle and has ben trying to break to the upside. But unfortunately there is a very important resistance zone that is keeping it from it. Price has been bouncing on the Tenkan Sen.
If price breaks the ascending triangle the upside target would be 3.40 Dollar, wich is also the 1.68 fib extension level. The downside target would be 2.40 Dollar.
Let's see if it breaks the triangle!
Let's take a look a look at Coti on the daily with Ichimoku Coti has been forming a cup and handle pattern. After the handle got broken price has been going up and got rejected at the very important resistance level. This level is also the 0.382 fib extension level. The target of the cup and handle is at the all-time high at 0.6090 cent. But before price gets there, it need to break two important resistance levels. Maybe it's a good idea to take some profits at 0.786 fib level.
If we look at Ichimoku confirmations we see:
-price is now above Tenkan Sen, Kijun Sen, Senkou Span A and B. Meaning Coti is bullish in short, midterm and longterm.
- Tenkan Sen and Kijun Sen are retracing to eachother, meaning no trend in short term and midterm.
-Kumo (ssa and ssb) is flat. Meaning no trend in long term.
-Chiko Span is above the candles meaning bullish market sentiment (momentum)
We can say that with the closing of this recent (bullish engulfing candle) we are bullish in short, mid and longterm. And we are good to go to our targets.
Let's take a look at Vechain on the daily with IchimokuAfter breaking out of the descending triangle Vechain has been going up and is now fighting a very importent resistance level. At the moment a gravestone doji is forming at the resistance, meaning a bearish reversal could be happening in the near future. According to fib extension, price tried to break the 0.382 level but got rejected. If price can break the 0.382 the next level should be between .15878 and .16933 cents.
What Ichimoku shows:
-Price is above Tenkan Sen, Kijun Sen and Sankou Span A and B, meaning Vechain is bullish in short, midterm and longterm.
-Chiko Span is above the candles, meaning bullish market momentum.
-Tenkan Sen, Kijun Sen, SSA, SSB are up, meaning uptrend in short, mid and longterm.
-Kumo has a nice thickness. That gives a more stable uptrend.
So by Ichimoku confirmations, everything is looking good. But will it be a continuous bullish N-wave after breaking 0.382 fib level or will it bounce back to the Tenkan Sen or Kijun Sen.
Ichimoku AdvancedHi, traders!
Today we are going to complement our Ichimoku article with some techniques that we use in our rading staff. We hope, you’ll master indicator and integrate it in your strategies. How we’ve already said, Ichimoku is extremely powerful indicator which is able to demonstrate some hidden information of market and even predict the future prices. Never the less, we’ll give the main application that we use in our daily trading stuff.
What's next for Litecoin? Medium Term Target for Litecoin has been reached @ $135 (Feel free to view previous Idea for Analysis)
As stated 1 year from now Litecoin should reach new highs.
For now expect Litecoin to keep pushing higher below are a few target I have in mind. Since new are deep in profit I want everyone to be cautious if we drop back down to the $120 mark before heading higher.
Profit targets are now $150 , $172 , $200
ICHIMOKU P-WAVE XRP BULLISH SCENARIO BULL MOVE
Since a P-Wave is a continuation pattern this is a potential move to the upside between 24-30 cents max before a drop at resistance we've failed multiple times to sustain about 30 cents. If we can get back into 30 cent range and hold we can get a move back into 34-40 cent range.
BEAR MOVE
Now this is where things get tricky. Even though a P-Wave is a continuation pattern this can change using the ichimoku time and wave theory together. When price falls on an ichimoku cycle number chances of a reversal can happen. The next ichimoku number falls on May 20th. Bearish move will be making lower lows into the 5-8 cent range.
Conclusion
Looking for price to break clean outside of the P-Wave to determine which direction market with move. These are very strong breaks.
