I wrote this strategy today after studying some Ichimoku Trading Stategies.

It is mainly based around Ichimoku breakout strategy but also includes checks for Directional Movement and Divergence.

I wrote it for my local market (South Africa 40 Cash) on the 1Hr Timeframe on which it performs okay, which is no mean feat.

But to be completely honest i am disappointed with Ichimoku as an automated strategy in general.

But enough mumbling. Here is the code, maybe someone will find it useful.

Time schedule are adapted to intraday spread (8 points).

//Stategy: IchimokuDM
//Market: South Africa 40 Cash (ZAR2 Micro)
//Timeframe: 1Hr
//Spread: 15
//Timezone: UTC +2

Defparam Cumulateorders = False
Defparam Flatbefore = 073000
Defparam Flatafter = 163000

If hour < 9 or hour > 17 then //Works in conjunction with Flat Before/After time
possize = 0
If longonmarket then
SELL AT MARKET
ElsIf shortonmarket then
EXITSHORT AT MARKET
EndIf
Else
possize = 2 //Minimum position size
EndIf

P = 11 //Standard Period
R = P*2 //Standard Period x 2
I = P*3 //Standard Period x 3
TS = (highest[P](high)+lowest[P](low))/2 //Tenkan-Sen
KS = (highest[I](high)+lowest[I](low))/2 //Kijun-Sen
CS = close[I] //Chikou-Span
SA = (TS+KS)/2 //Senkou-Span A
SB = (highest[I](high)+lowest[I](low))/2 //Senkou-Span B
DP = DIplus[R](close) //DI+
DN = DIminus[R](close) //DI-
AX = ADX[R] //ADX
ATR = AverageTrueRange[P](close)

If RSI[R](close) > RSI[R](close[I]) Then
 If close < CS Then
  BDIV = 1 //Buy Divergence Present
  SDIV = 0
 EndIf
EndIf

If RSI[R](close) < RSI[R](close[I]) Then
 If close > CS Then
  BDIV = 0 //Sell Divergence Present
  SDIV = 1
 EndIf
EndIf


If countofposition = 0 and BDIV = 1 and AX > 17 and DP > 20 and DP > DN and close > SA and close > SB and TS > KS and close > CS and Close > SA[I] and Close > SB[I] Then
 Buy possize*3 contracts at close + ATR stop
EndIf

If countofposition = 0 and SDIV = 1 and AX > 17 and DN > 20 and DP < DN and close < SA and close < SB and TS < KS and close < CS and Close < SA[I] and Close < SB[I] Then
 Sellshort possize*3 contracts at close - ATR stop
EndIf

If Longonmarket then
 If close < TS Then //If close below Tenkan-Sen Line
  If close < close[1] Then
   Sell at Market //Close position at next lower close
  EndIf
 EndIf
ElsIf Shortonmarket then
 If close > TS Then //If close below Tenkan-Sen Line
  If close > close[1] Then
   Exitshort at Market //Close position at next higher close
  EndIf
 EndIf
EndIf

Set Stop pLOSS ATR*4
Set Target pPROFIT ATR*5
