Writing the Ichimoku indicator..

pieroim · Fri, 29 Sep 2017 15:15:44 +0000

Ok, I’m new to prorealtime, I’m studing PRT programming from yesterday.. hovewer I have done this indicator from the classic ichimoku code here in the forum: T = 9 //Tenkan-Sen Period (9) I = 26 //Chikou-Span Period (26) K = 52 //Kijun-Sen Period (52) TS = (highest[T](high)+lowest[T](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[K](high)+lowest[K](low))/2 //Senkou-Span B RETURN TS COLOURED(255, 0, 255) AS “Tenkan-Sen”, KS COLOURED(0, 0, 255) AS “Kijun-Sen”, CS COLOURED(127, 0, 0) AS “Chikou-Span”, SA COLOURED(0,255,255) AS “Senkou-Span A”, SB COLOURED(0,255,0) AS “Senkou-Span B” ————————————————– Attached is an image where you can see up the PRT ichimoku, and down the “new” one. You can see that there are some important problems: The kumo in the new one would be 26 candles forward.. The Chikou-Span would be 26 candles back.. but.. I don’t know how can do this in PRT code.. Can you help me? Thanks Piero

hey @nicolas

is it possible to get a call function of the chikou span line 26 periods in the past like to original indicator plots?

the “drawsegment barindex[26]” is not possible to get any indications from

If you want to get the Chikou price, just use Close! Chikou is the price Close of the current bar.

lets say i want to enter long when the chikou line plotted 26 periods in the past crosses above close x periods ago

when i code the chikou indicator it does not behave as the one plotted 26 periods ago so i cant get the same typ of entries

Chikou crosses Close from 26 periods ago:

chikou = close test = chikou crosses over close[26]

1
2

chikou = close
test = chikou crosses over close[26]

I think that you don’t understand how Ichimoku works.

Chikou is the actual Close, so how the actual Close could be higher or lower than its own value?

i understand that its pretty simple, its only close[26]

all i wonder is if its possible to get a signal when the chikou is above/below like the picture
