This is an enhanced version of the normal Ichimoku indicator, which is combined with ADX/DMI and SAR to filter the trading signals.
The ADX/DMI uses the standard 14 periods, and the SAR uses the standard settings of 0.02/0.2/0.02.
The signals are basically the same, but the Ichimoku definition for Strong is somewhat eased and filtered afterwards based on ADX/DMI and SAR signals.
Alerts
- When the signal becomes Strong
- When the TenkanSen crosses the KijunSen
