Trading with Ichimoku Clouds in Indian MCX - Introduction of Ichimoku Cloud System

What is Ichimoku Kinko Hyo?

Ichimoku Kinko Hyo is a multifunctional visual trend following charting system. It mentioned to be the king of the indicators and trading or analyzing with it is a kind of high level art.

What does it's name mean?

Ichimoku means: one glance, Kinko means: equilibrium (or balance), and  Hyo means: chart.
The term Ichimoku Kinko Hyo could be translated as: 'One glance equilibrium chart', or 'Chart balance at a glance'.

Who created the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo system?

It was developed by a Japanese economic journalist, name Goichi Hosoda, who aimed to create a kind of „all-in-one” indicator to analyze the charts more deeply but in less time.

Why is the system so special?

With Ichimoku, it is possible to get the whole picture of the market, including trend direction, the main support/resistance levels, and exact entry or exit points. It also helps to define the strength of the signal. It is also important, that Ichimoku can be used successfully for all markets and on all time frames, but – like most indicators - it performs a bit better on the higher ones.

Is it a stand-alone system?

Ichimoku Kinko Hyo can be used in many ways. It can be used as a stand-alone system, or it can be used as a trend and price behaviour analyser and can be combined with any trading systems or strategies. It also can be used as an entry signal generator, or it can be used to filter the signals of another trading system. Furthermore, as trading Ichimoku is a kind of high-level art, and art is quite a subjective thing, every Ichimoku trader trades the Ichimoku a bit differently.

What are the components of the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo system?

Ichimoku Kinko Hyo is constituted by five lines:

1. The Tenkan-Sen (Conversion line) is calculated as (Highest High + Lowest Low)/2 for the past 9 periods.
2. The Kijun-Sen (Standard line) is calculated as (Highest High + Lowest Low)/2 for the past 26 periods.
3. The Chikou Span (Lagging Span) is calculated as current price time-shifted backwards 26 periods.
4. The Senkou Span A (Faster Span A) is calculated as (Tenkan-Sen + Kijun-Sen)/2.
5. The Senkou Span B (Faster Span B) is calculated as (Highest High + Lowest Low)/2.
