I have been comparing the 2 indicators that I mentioned earlier. One on NT7 available through futures.io (formerly BMT)F and the one available on ToS. I would like to congratulate you on your making this indicator an effective indicator and my apologies for my earlier comments.

However I would still insist that when I got involved with Ichimoku and was looking at the one available for Ninja Trader platform, there was a huge difference and the plotting was not correct at all, which lead me to look at ToS and I was more than happy to use ToS and did not go back to Ninja at all, therafter.

Thank you for setting up a good indicator for Ninja Traders' Platform.

I was not at all upset, as there's nothing personal in it. If someone says an indicator I have is incorrect I naturally want to know what they mean so that I can correct any problem. Wouldn't you?


Thanks
Steve

Tarantino,

The standard version of the Ichimoku uses High and Low values for all calculations except the Chikou Span. I don't know whether this is intentional or not, but your version of the indicator uses Close (the default input for MAX and MIN) for everything. Thus all plots except the Chikou Span are slightly off.

Here's a version using the H and L values.


Thank you so much, looks perfect.

Hi there. this code is nearly perfect. Only missing component (actually 2). It would be complete if Senkou Span A and can be plotted, and highlighted using selectable colors.

Also, both Span A and Span B price needs to show on the price axis. It seems based on forward cloud, you've already done this. Would it be too much trouble to add the span A and Span B (seprately plotted / selectable colors) and have the most forward values display on the price axis?

Thank you so much for your great work!

Can somebody pls point me to the "definitive" version of the Ichimoku indicator for NT7. So far I have come up short.
The version in the NT forums seems poorly implemented, e.g. the Chikou is offset by 10 periods regardless of the setting I use and the cloud does not show past the latest bar.

Shame on NT for not including an "official" version!

I don't use Ichimoku myself, so don't know about the definitive version.
You can do a search for ichimoku indicators on nexusfi.com (formerly BMT) yourself.

Click on search, and then search for attachments:





Type keyword "ichimoku":





There are many results:

Thanks. I did manage to find IchimokuHL which I have installed. I found one minor "error"- the indicator name in the .CS file has a leading space so it sorts to the top of the indicator list (probably intentional by the developer).
I removed the space so it now sorts correctly.

For those who found the cloud does not show into the future, you need to set the chart properties field "Right side margin" to approx. 100 (pixels).

I am looking for an Ichimoku indicator that will plot the clouds in the future (beyond the latest candle) and also give me alerts.

I installed the AaIchimokuNT7 indicator and it has the alerts, but it does not plot the clouds in the future (beyond the latest candle).

Could you also tell us, which of the various Ichimoku Kinko Hyo indicators you have tried so far? Did you try this one as well?



I tried installing the versions below and changed the displacement to 26, but it did not help.

Try this one, the clouds are drawn in a different way, still you have to use the displacement. I cannot garantee it is what you are looking for.

Hi Walter,

Happy it works in case you'd need the lines separated as well.



I downloaded the following version and it does plot the cloud into the future beyond the latest bar, but it does not have the alerts.

Has anyone corrected the AaIchimokuNT7 indicator so it will plot the clouds in the future (beyond the latest candle) or another Ichimoku version that has alerts?

Thank you
