  • Five Components

    Tenkan-sen (conversion), Kijun-sen (base), Senkou A, Senkou B, and Chikou Span. The complete Ichimoku system.

  • Cloud Direction

    Compare Senkou A vs Senkou B. When A > B, the cloud is bullish (green). When B > A, the cloud is bearish (red).

  • TK Cross Signals

    Detect Tenkan-Kijun crossovers programmatically. Tenkan crosses above Kijun above the cloud = strong bullish signal.

  • Price vs Cloud

    Compare price to Senkou A and B to determine if price is above, below, or inside the cloud. Key for trend direction.

  • Ichimoku + RSI

    Combine Ichimoku trend with RSI momentum via /v1/multi. Above cloud + RSI above 50 = confirmed uptrend.

  • Multi-Timeframe

    Check Ichimoku on D1 for the trend, H4 for the setup, and H1 for the entry — all with the same API.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Ichimoku components does the API return?

Five components: Tenkan-sen (conversion line), Kijun-sen (base line), Senkou Span A (leading span A), Senkou Span B (leading span B), and Chikou Span (lagging span).

What are the default Ichimoku parameters?

Standard parameters: 9 for Tenkan, 26 for Kijun, and 52 for Senkou Span B — the traditional settings used by most Ichimoku traders.

How do I determine if price is above the cloud?

Compare the current price with Senkou Span A and Senkou Span B. If price is above both, it is above the cloud (bullish). If below both, it is below the cloud (bearish).

Can I get Ichimoku on all timeframes?

Yes. Ichimoku is available on all 7 timeframes from M1 to D1. Many Ichimoku traders prefer H4 and D1 for the most reliable signals.

Can I combine Ichimoku with other indicators?

Yes. Use /v1/multi to get Ichimoku alongside RSI, MACD, or any other indicator. Ichimoku + RSI confluence is a popular combination.
