Default Ichimoku Indicator

  Hi to all,

  I’m trying to use Ikimoku indicator to buid a screener, but my “Chikou Span” line is different from the same Proealtime built-in indicator.

  Reading on Internet, the Chikou Span line is drawn by closing price shifted by 26 periods in the past, but the Prorealtime Chikou Span line uses the future period of 26.

  Am I wrong?

  Thank You.

  The Chikou value is Close[0], but it is visually plotted 26 periods in the past.

  Why do you want to plot values in the past in a screener? 🙂

  I don’t want to use past values in a screener.

  I just want to replicate Prorealtime Ichimoku indicator.

  Usually, when i write a screener which needs a copy of a Prorealtime Indicator, I rewrite the indicator first. In this way, I can compare my chart with Prorealtime Chart and verify what I’m doing.

  Next, I use code generator to write the screener.

  Thank You.

  There are many ichimoku codes on the website, I think you’ll get one in just a breeze by using the search tool in the upper right menu, right below your avatar.
