Ichimoku Cloud Strategy — The Complete System Nobody Uses Correctly

r/technicalanalysisstocksDaily or 4-hourby reddit_community

Full Ichimoku system: price above cloud + Tenkan above Kijun + Chikou above price = entry. 80% WR in trends. Avoid trades inside the cloud.

ENTRY RULES

Price closes above cloud (bullish) or below (bearish) | Tenkan-sen crosses above Kijun-sen (bullish signal) | Chikou Span is above price 26 periods ago | Cloud ahead is green (bullish) or red (bearish) | All 5 elements must align for entry

EXIT RULES

Exit when Tenkan crosses below Kijun | Or when price closes inside the cloud | Chikou dropping below price = warning | Stop loss at Kijun-sen level | Trail stop using Senkou Span B

Ichimoku Cloud Strategy — The Complete System Nobody Uses Correctly

Ichimoku Cloud as a complete trading system. Most traders only use the cloud for support/resistance but miss the full power. Proper entry: price above cloud, Tenkan above Kijun, Chikou above price. This triple confirmation has an 80% win rate in trending markets. Avoid when price is inside the cloud (ranging). The 52-period Senkou Span B acts as the strongest S/R level in the system.
