This indicator signals about Stochastic crossing in the trend direction which is determined by the position of the price relative to the Ichimoku cloud.
Features:
- Flexible settings:
- filtering signals by bullish/bearish bars (parameter "BUY - the bullish bar only; SELL - the bear bar only");
- setting levels of Stochastic crossing (parameters "BUY-signal if Stochastic below this level" and "BUY-signal if Stochastic below this level")
- ability to use the Ichimoku cloud of higher timeframes (parameter "Timeframe of Ichimoku Cloud").
- Label in the upper right corner will show you the trend direction:
- arrow up indicates that the price is above the Ichimoku cloud;
- arrow down indicates that the price is below the cloud;
- O - the price is in the cloud (flat: in this case the signal will not be generated).
- The signal is given not only when the bar is closed (formed signal), but also on the current bar which is not closed yet (probable signal). It gives you time to analyze the market situation and allows you to take a time when making a decision and calculating trade parameters.
- Emails and push notifications to mobile devices (parameters ON/OFF-Mail and ON/OFF-Push).
- The indicator can generate a signal for early exit from the trade when lines of the Stochastic are reversely crossed (against the trend).
You can enable and disable this option using a button in the lower right corner of the chart (adjustable parameter). Enable this button only if you are in the market and wish to close a deal according to reverse crossing of the Stochastic. You can remove this button from the chart if you do not need this option (“ON/OFF - Reverse signal button”=false)
Good results are obtained with default parameters, if you set a timeframe of the Ichimoku cloud one level higher than the current one. For example you attach the indicator to a chart with М1, and set the cloud timeframe (parameter "Timeframe of Ichimoku Cloud") to М5. If a chart has М30 timeframe, set H1 as the cloud timeframe, etc.

Parameters:
Stochastic Parameters
- K Period - period for Stochastic %K line
- D Period - period of averaging for the %D line
- Slowing - value of slowing
- BUY-signal if Stochastic below this level - buy signal appears if the Stochastic is below this level
- SELL-signal if Stochastic above this level - sell signal appears if the Stochastic is above this level
- BUY - the bullish bar only; SELL - the bear bar only - if =true, the signal bar must be bullish when buying and bearish when selling
Ichimoku Cloud Parameters
- Tenkan-sen - Tenkan Sen averaging period
- Kijun-sen - Kijun Sen averaging period
- Senkou Span B - Senkou Span B averaging period
- Shift TF of Ichimoku relative to the current TF ( >0, <0, =0 ) – shift of the Ichimoku cloud timeframe relative to the current timeframe (can be =0, >0, <0). Value 1 means 1 timeframe higher, 2 means 2 timeframes higher. Value -1 means timeframe lower than the current by 1 period, etc. For example, when the current period is M15, if you set the parameter to 1, the indicator will display the Ichimoku cloud data on M30, and if you set it to -1, the indicator will display the Ichimoku cloud data on M5
- Up Kumo color - color of the Ichimoku cloud during an uptrend (Senkou Span A is above Senkou Span B)
- Down Kumo color - color of the Ichimoku cloud during a downtrend (Senkou Span A is below Senkou Span B)
Trend Pointer Parameters (arrow in the upper right corner)
- ON/OFF - Draw the arrow of the trend - enable the trend pointer
- Color of Up-trend/Down-trend - arrow color for the bullish/bearish trend
- Color of flat (no signal) - arrow color for flat (the price is in the Ichimoku cloud; signals are absent)
Notifications and Alerts
- ON/OFF – Sound when the signal - enable sound signal
- File name of sound (signal is already generated) - sound for already formed signal (close bar)
- File name of sound (possible signal) - sound for probable signal (current bar)
- ON/OFF - Alert / Mail / Push - Messages / E-mail / Mobile phone
Revers Signal/Early Exit Button
- ON/OFF – Reverse signal button - displaying the button of early exit signal
- Chart corner for button - chart corner for button
- X/Y coordinate - X/Y coordinate (in pixels) to display the button
- File name of sound (reverse signal) - sound for reverse signal
Excellent indicator. Great combination.
