I'm sorry if I wasn't clear on that before, but I'm using a 12 iwMeanRenko chart as a higher time frame for every instrument I'm trading.

Personally I never take trades by just looking at one indicator type alone. Ichimoku just happens to be one of the many tools I like to look at and is one of my favorites amongst others like fibonacci levels, market profile, order flow and so on but DTS is what I gauge a go or no go decision in the final end.
Also, a closer look at the DTS Eagle chart shows that I use a 10 Tick time frame as opposed to the recommended 12. Then to identify 1-2-3 wave patterns I also add a ZigZag indicator to DTS and plain vanilla charts.
That's just my prefered trading style and not meaning to imply DTS is a mediocre system. On the contrary.
Draw your own lines. know previous days levels. retracements. Extension of Initial Balance. Order Flow. Do EVERYTHING manually. Then you will know all the actionable zones. And you will stay out of the middle go nowhere. Continually draw and measure. Keep a tactile connection to levels.
Then the market patterns as the action of thousands of speculators like you ( eg. the market ) makes more sense.
Keep it simple. Expect casualties, exit go nowhere trades and take hostages in bite size chunks. Good trading.
Also beware buying any of their indicators. If your machine ID changes, which mine does regularly because I use a laptop and I get system updates frequently, this changes the NT machine ID. They charge $10 for each indicator that needs to be registered to the new machine ID. In my mind this is a complete rip off.
