ichimoku indicator
hello
I have an idea and maybe some programmer is intresting to do it.
The Ichimoku indicator is a very complex trading system and a art of trading and specially for manually trading.
but if you understand the system its also possible to take some parts out to confirm a other system. So the idea is to build a MTF indicator which show important inforamtion of ichimoku indicator. Its not easy to backtest manually this indicator. for instance if you want to see the chinkou span you have to count 26 bars back. if you want to see the leading kumo SSa/SSb you have to count 26 bars forward. So this is all very complex. The idea for the indicator is that it should show for each bar some informations. The rules for programming are not so complex and possible. more comples is how the indicator should look like.
so the idea is to built an MTF indicator which show on for instance a H1 chart the state of ichimoku on Timeframe H1 H4 . So for each bar on H1 you can see the state of ichimoku on this timeframe and H4 with one look.
Ichimoku is primaraly a trend indicator and system. So it show the condition if a market is trending or not.
There are a lot of rules in the ichimoku chart. So i filter the primary rules out.
1) if price is in the kumo (range) or > kumo (Bullish) or < kumo(bearish)
(would also be useful to see if price is this candle a close above kumo and last candle close was in kumo.
2)if chinkou span is > Price(bullish) or < price (bearish)-(show momentum)
3) if price (close) > kijun sen or < kijun sen (bearish)
4) if Tenkan sen > Kijun Sen (bullish) or < Kijun sen (bearish)
5) If Shenkou Span A is > Shenkou Span B (bullish) < Shenkou Span B (bearish)
6) If Shenkou Span B > previous Shenkou Span B (bullish) or < previous Shenkou Span B (bearish) or = previous Shenkoou Span B (flat)
Maybe also(?) 7) If Shenkou Span A > previous Shenkou Span A (bullish) or < previous Shenkou Span A (bearish) or = previous Shenkoou Span A (flat)
8 ) if price is > Tenkan sen (bullish) or < Tenkan sen (bearish)
So I think this would be the most important informations. Complicate is that each information need a own sign. and to show this in one indicator for each candle is not easy. I cant imagine how. but maybe through colours would be possible.? wenn all show green or red you have a clear trending market.
So its an idea. i dont know if somebody is intrested to do this. i have attachment to see how the different lines are calculated in ichimoku.
of course ichimoku shows much more for instance support and resistance. But for this its best to use original indicator.
So comments are appetiated.
regards
