Hi Support,

I've been trying to figure out how to use Ichimoku indicator. Per link below,
https://www.dukascopy.com/swiss/english/forex/jforex/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=47448&p=64800&hilit=ichimoku#p64800

Correct me if I'm wrong. I guess SENOKU_A is Senkou A and SENOKU_B is Senkou B.

double[] i_sh = indicators.ichimoku(selectedInstrument, selectedPeriod,
                selectedOfferSide, tenkan, kijun, senkou, 1 + kijun);

bar.getClose() < i_sh[SENOKU_A] && bar.getClose() < i_sh[SENOKU_B]

For other parameters, can you please advise how I could get the rest of them, i.e. Tenkan Sen, Kijun Sen, Chinkou Span and Cloud?

In the example above, would they be,

i_sh[TENKAN], i_sh[KIJUN], i_sh[CHINKOU] and i_sh[CLOUD]?

Are there any document on Dukascopy wiki or forum that explains Ichimoku indicator with in depth details?

Thanks.

Run the following example with indName = "ICHIMOKU" to find out the output names and numbers:

Consider running the next example and compare the outputs with on-chart values to see how it works:

thanks support for the prompt response.

I will be running those examples. will let you know if i have any other questions.

I was able to get the following output by running Calculate_by_shift,

2012-09-10 08:04:38 Cloud type is Object - class [D, which needs customized processing.
2012-09-10 08:04:38 Senkou B=1.27943
2012-09-10 08:04:38 Senkou A=1.27932
2012-09-10 08:04:38 Chinkou Span=1.27940
2012-09-10 08:04:38 Ki-jun Sen=1.27932
2012-09-10 08:04:38 Tenkan Sen=1.27932
2012-09-10 08:04:38 indicator outputs:
2012-09-10 08:04:38 Set default opt input: Senkou=52
2012-09-10 08:04:38 Set default opt input: Kijun=26
2012-09-10 08:04:38 Set default opt input: Tenkan=9
2012-09-10 08:04:38 inputCount=1, optInputCount=3, outputCount=6

Since I'd like to call and get output for each parameter individually, for instance, what you did in the IchimokuStrategy is,

if (bar.getClose() < i_sh[SENOKU_A]
&& bar.getClose() < i_sh[SENOKU_B]) {

I still couldn't figure it out what the other names I am supposed to use are. Can you help please?

Thanks.

Great support! Thank you so much!

Now I understood where those names came from... Obviously I don't know much about programming.
