SuperTrade Ichimoku Cloud StrategyUnlike SuperTrade's Super Trend the Ichimoku Cloud Strategy is a trend-following system derived from the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo indicator. It helps identify market direction, momentum, and potential support/resistance zones. This strategy uses key components of the Ichimoku Cloud to determine bullish or bearish trends and executes trades accordingly.
🔍 Key Components Used
Conversion Line (Tenkan-sen) – short-term average (9-period Donchian midpoint by default)
Base Line (Kijun-sen) – medium-term average (26-period Donchian midpoint)
Leading Span A (Senkou Span A) – average of Conversion Line and Base Line, plotted forward by 26 periods.
Leading Span B (Senkou Span B) – 52-period Donchian midpoint, plotted forward by 26 periods.
Lagging Span (Chikou Span) – current close price, plotted backward by 26 periods (for visual reference only in this version).
The cloud (Kumo) is the area between Leading Span A and B, representing trend direction and potential support/resistance.
📈 Entry Rules (Buy Condition)
A long trade is entered when:
LeadLine1 > LeadLine2 → This implies a bullish cloud.
Close > LeadLine1 and Close > LeadLine2 → The price is trading above the cloud, confirming upward momentum.
This combination indicates a strong bullish trend, so the strategy enters a long position.
📉 Exit Rules (Sell Condition / Close Position)
The long trade is closed when:
LeadLine1 < LeadLine2 → This implies a bearish cloud.
Close < LeadLine1 and Close < LeadLine2 → The price has fallen below the cloud, signaling trend weakness or reversal.
This confirms a bearish trend, prompting the strategy to exit the long position.
✅ Must-Have Elements in This Strategy
Entry Logic – based on price position relative to the cloud and cloud direction.
Exit Logic – closes the position when price shifts to a bearish trend.
Overlay Enabled – plotted over price for visual confirmation of signals.
Dynamic Parameters – inputs for conversion/base/cloud lengths and displacement.
Visualization – plots all Ichimoku components including cloud fill for clarity.
No Shorting Logic Yet – this version only handles long trades; shorting can be added optionally.
No Stop-Loss or Take-Profit – trades are closed purely based on Ichimoku trend reversal.
