This indicator is based on the 4 time intervals and because of that we may see the 5 different line:
- Tenkan-sen is the average value of the price for the first time interval calculated as sum of maximum and minimum for this period of time devided by 2;
- Kijun-sen is the average value of the price for the second time interval;
- Senkou Span A is the middle of interval between two above mentioned lines (Tenkan-sen and Kijun-sen) shifted onward on the value of the second time interval;
- Senkou Span B is the average value of the price for the third time interval shifted onward on the value of the second time interval;
- Chinkou Span is the closing price of the current candle shifted back on the value of the second time interval. Ichimoku indicator  The space between Senkou lines is the cloud.
And we have 3 cases:
- if the price is inside the cloud (it means it is between Senkou lines) we have non trading market. In other words, we are not trading inside the cloud.
And Senkou lines are the support and resistance lines in this case.
- if the price is above the cloud the first Senkou line is the first support, and the second one is the second support respectively.
- if the price is below the cloud the first line (first from the price line) is the first resistance and the second one is the second resistance.
If Chinkou Span line is crossing the price curve from below to upward we have the signal to buy, and from above to below - signal to sell. Kijun-sen is used as market trend indicator line (main line):
- if the price is above Kijun-sen line we have uptrend (most probably);
- if the price curve is crossing the Kijun-sen line the trend will be reversed (most probably as well). Tenkan-sen line is crossing Kijun-sen line:
- from up to down - sell signal;
- from down to up - buy signal. Tenkan-sen and Kijun-sen line are used to estimate the trendable and float market. If one of the line is going by the horizontal way we have float (non-trading zones).
Besides, Tenkan-sen is used as the reversed line to estimate the trend. Thus, the Ishimoku indicator looks like trading system: all the lines are the middle of the price range for the some period of time and we may estimate the bullish and bearish trend and so on. And all the lines are re-acted instantly on the creating the new max or minimum within period of time - no delay.
In other words the Ishimoru indicator is of the complex trading system. Well. But why we are not using this indicator right now?
Because some people say: "the settings of the indicator (9, 26, 52) are valid for the weekly charts only; and not for the forex; this indicator will not work on an other timeframes with the default settings; so it is necessary to have different settings for the different timeframes. But anyway there are many people who are using this indicator with some good results. And they are using exactly default settings (9, 26, 52).
On the next few posts we will describe more about it but I want to say that if you are trading using Ishimoru indicator you will have 1 trade for 2 weeks on D1 or 1 trade per 2 days in intra-day trading. And most probably you will be in profit in 4 of 5 cases (it means 75%). << Start < Prev 1 2 3 4 Next > End >> |
