# **Overview**
**NICHI (Nuwen’s Ichimoku)** is a next-generation Ichimoku system that merges the classical Hosoda Ichimoku with a modular adaptive-smoothing engine, enhanced Kumo logic, directional trend counters, and multi-mode bar coloring.
The indicator includes **two completely separate Ichimoku engines**:
* **Standard Ichimoku** – Traditional Donchian-based Tenkan, Kijun, Senkou A/B, and Chikou
* **Advanced Ichimoku** – Fully customizable Ichimoku using 15+ moving-average filters and enhanced logic
NICHI is designed for modern markets—especially **futures and volatile instruments** (NG, CL, ES, NQ, crypto).

# **Key Features**
## **1. Dual Ichimoku Systems**
* **Standard Mode:**
Classic Donchian Ichimoku with Tenkan, Kijun, Senkou A/B, and Chikou.
Clean, faithful implementation.
* **Advanced Mode:**
Every Ichimoku line uses a **selected smoothing filter** (EMA, KAMA, FRAMA, Hull, McGinley, etc.).
Includes directional persistence tracking, enhanced cloud logic, and adaptive bar coloring.
---
## **2. Advanced Filter Engine (15+ Smooth Types)**
Use any of the following for Tenkan, Kijun, Senkou B, or Chikou:
* EMA
* DEMA
* SMA
* SMMA (RMA)
* WMA
* VWMA
* Hull MA
* ALMA
* LSMA (Linear Regression)
* McGinley Dynamic
* KAMA
* FRAMA
* COVWMA
* Moving Median
* 50th Percentile (Nearest Rank)
This transforms Ichimoku into an **adaptive trend system**.
---
## **3. Enhanced Cloud (Kumo) Modeling**
* Independent forward offsets for Span A & Span B
* Cloud colors adapt based on strength, direction, and filter behavior
* Cloud thickness reflects volatility
* Neutral cloud state available when spans disagree
---
## **4. Directional Persistence Counters**
NICHI tracks the **trend streak** of each main component:
* Tenkan rising/falling
* Kijun rising/falling
* Span A rising/falling
* Span B rising/falling
These counters make cloud and line colors more accurate and stable.
---
## **5. Regime-Based Bar Coloring (3 Modes)**
NICHI includes three built-in trading frameworks:
### **Mode 1: Kumo-Based**
Bar color reflects price relative to the cloud:
* Green = Above Kumo
* Red = Below Kumo
* Orange = Inside Kumo
Ideal for **trend-following** and **market regime detection**.
---
### **Mode 2: Tenkan/Kijun-Based**
Bar color reflects momentum structure:
* Green = Price above both Tenkan & Kijun
* Red = Price below both
Designed for **momentum entries and TK breakouts**.
---
### **Mode 3: Chikou-Based**
Bars reflect historical confirmation:
* Green = Chikou > price (offset period)
* Red = Chikou < price
Excellent for **confirmation-first strategies** where accuracy matters most.
---
## **6. Multi-MA Overlay System**
Up to **four optional moving averages**:
* SMA, EMA, SMMA, WMA, HMA, VWMA
* Independent lengths, widths, colors
* Useful for bias, confluence, trend filters
Default: **SMA 200** enabled.
---
## **7. TK Cross Signals**
Both systems show TK crosses:
* Standard TK Cross (classic)
* Advanced TK Cross (filtered version)
Crosses appear with clear markers for entry/exit logic.
---
# **How to Use NICHI**
## **1. Choose Your Engine**
* **Standard:** Clean, classic Ichimoku
* **Advanced:** Adaptive, filter-driven Ichimoku
* **Both:** Comparative analysis
---
## **2. Select Your Filter Type (Advanced Mode)**
Suggested filters:
| Market | Filter Type | Notes |
| ---------------- | ---------------- | -------------------------- |
| Natural Gas (NG) | KAMA or FRAMA | Handles extreme volatility |
| Crude Oil (CL) | McGinley Dynamic | Smooths spikes |
| ES / NQ | SMMA or WMA | Balanced response |
| Crypto | Hull or ALMA | Handles momentum bursts |
| FX | EMA or SMMA | Classic, stable |
---
## **3. Choose a Bar-Color Strategy**
* **Kumo-Based:** Trend following
* **TK-Based:** Momentum and breakouts
* **Chikou-Based:** Highest confirmation/accuracy
Each strategy is valid and intentionally distinct.
---
## **4. Reading the Cloud**
* **Bullish Cloud:** Span A > Span B
* **Bearish Cloud:** Span A < Span B
* **Neutral Cloud:** Disagreement between spans
* **Thick Cloud:** High volatility / stronger structure
* **Thin Cloud:** Weak trend / potential twist
---
## **5. Entry & Exit Concepts**
### **Entries**
* **Momentum Entry:** TK cross with price above the cloud
* **Reversal Entry:** TK cross before a cloud twist
* **Confirmation Entry:** Chikou breaks cleanly above/below past price
### **Exits**
* Price falling through Kijun
* Re-entering the cloud
* Opposite TK cross
* Cloud flipping against position
---
# **Recommended Trading Approaches**
## **Kumo-Based Trend Strategy**
* Long above cloud, short below
* Avoid signals inside cloud
Best for swing/position trading.
---
## **TK-Based Momentum Strategy**
* Enter on Tenkan/Kijun breakout
* Bar color confirms momentum
* Cloud filter optional but helps
Great for high-velocity markets.
---
## **Chikou-Based Confirmation Strategy**
* Enter only when Chikou confirms structure
* Highest accuracy, fewest trades
* Ideal for volatile markets (NG, CL)
---
# **Closing Notes**
NICHI is a **research-grade Ichimoku framework** designed to handle modern volatility where traditional Ichimoku often fails.
It supports scalpers, swing traders, and system developers alike.
Experiment with:
* Filter types
* Cloud offsets
* Bar-color modes
* MA overlays
to match your strategy and market.

Double Ichimoku Cloud with drop-down selectable lookback periodsThis script will display two Kumo Clouds. The overlap between the clouds can be areas of high support or resistance. I've included a drop-down selector for a variety of common lookback periods. Experiments show that the 10-30-60-30 settings can be more applicable to the FOREX and Crypto markets.
TSI in Dynamic Zones with Divergence and Pivot PointsTrue Strength Index , or TSI is considered a "leading indicator" - in contrast to a "lagging indicator" just as Moving Averages it does not show a confirmation what already happened, but it shows what can happen in the future. For example: The chart is climbing while the TSI oscillator is slowly declining, gets weaker and weaker, maybe even prints bearish divergences? That means that a reversal might be occurring soon. Leading indicators are best paired with Stop and Resistance Lines, General Trendlines , Fib Retracements etc. Your chart is approaching a very important Resistance Trendline but the TSI shows a very positive signal? That means there is a high probability that the Resistance is going to be pushed through and becomes Support in the future.
What are those circles?
-These are Divergences. Red for Regular-Bearish. Orange for Hidden-Bearish. Green for Regular-Bullish. Aqua for Hidden-Bullish.
What are those triangles?
- These are Pivots . They show when the TSI oscillator might reverse, this is important to know because many times the price action follows this move.
What are these blue or orange areas?
- Those are dynamic zones. For the analysis of the TSI its important to know if the indicator is in a state of oversold or overbought to filter out ranging price movement. Normally those zones are static, in this version of the TSI oscillator dynamic zones were added to show a dynamic calculation whether the TSI oscillator is oversold, overbought or ranging.
Please keep in mind that this indicator is a tool and not a strategy, do not blindly trade signals, do your own research first! Use this indicator in conjunction with other indicators to get multiple confirmations.
Ichimoku+Based on the ichimoku cloud system, this indicator gives two presets: Standard (9/26/52/26) and Crypto (20/60/120/30).
This also shows on a chart where Tenkan-Kijun cross happens and when a Kumo Twist happens.
Time Segmented Volume with divergence and Kumo cloud backgroundThis is a Time Segmented Volume (TSV) indicator with added divergence hunter, crossing signals, Kumo cloud background and alert functions
Please keep in mind that this indicator is a tool and not a strategy, do not blindly trade signals, do your own research first!

My Ichimoku indicator & Strategyhello I'm a beginner in trading, but I try to learn how to code strategies.
I recoded the Ichimoku indicator, and created my personnal strategy based on it.
The backtesting is done from 1/1/2017 to today in 45 min Time Unit for candles, with a 1 000 € equity.
The trades are all Long Entries and Exits with no pyramiding, no short trades at all.
/!\ Exchanges commission fees are not calculated and can in reality easily divide by 2 the total profit (am I right guys?) /!\
A buy signal is triggered upon these conditions:
- close is above the Kuma (cloud)
AND
- close crosses over Kijunsen AND Kijunsen is not flat (calculated with rising and falling with input "Kijunsen Lag")
OR
- Close crosses over ChikouSpan AND there was a sell signal in the last 8 candles
Sell signal is the same but reversed.
I appreciate your feedback ! Maybe I will update this later if I get better results.
