The Ichimoku indicator is relatively new, it was invented by a Japanese named Goichi Hosoda who tested it for many years before releasing it in the 60s. Ideally, the Ichimuku indicator can adapt to any type regardless of the underlying on which it is used.

It consists of several plots that form as a complete environment and is placed in the same window as the price display.

• Tenkan-Sen corresponding to the following calculation: (higher + lower) / 2 calculated over n periods (9 by default)

• Kijun-Sen corresponding to the following calculation: (higher + lower) / 2 calculated over n periods (26 by default)

• Senkou-Span (A) corresponding to the following calculation: (Tenkan + Kijun) / 2 advanced of n periods (26 by default)

• Senkou-Span (B) corresponding to the following calculation: (higher + lower) / 2 calculated over n periods (26 by default) and advanced by 26 periods

• Chinkou-Span corresponds to the closing price of the previous n periods (26 by default)
