Ichimoku Cloud Indicator

We used the Ichimoku Cloud indicator in FreeStockCharts.com, but remember it's also available in
StockFinder.

Here are the indicators included:


Tenkan Sen aka “Conversion Line” (Red Line)
(H+L)/2 … using period = 9
Kijun Sen aka “Base Line” (Dark Blue Line)
(H+L)/2 … using period = 26
Chiku Span aka “Lagging Span” (Not Shown)
Price Close shifted back 26 bars
Senkou A aka “Leading Span A” (Light Blue portion of Cloud)
(Tenkan Sen+Kijun Sen)/2
Senkou B aka “Leading Span B” (Dark Gray Blue portion of Cloud)
(H+L)/2 … using period = 52

Relationships we're looking for :

Relationship between Tenkan Sen and Kijun Sen . Keep an eye out for Tenkan crosses above Kijun.
Remember that these are similar to Moving Averages. Tenkan is shorter term, and Kijun is longer term.
So we're looking for crosses of T above K.

Relationship between Tenkan and Kijun relative to theCloud - The most bullish behavior happens when
T&K are above the Cloud and have positive slopes.
Stochastics Backtest
We set up a backtest where Stochastics crossing up through 20 was a Buy signal and Stochastics crossing
down through 80 was a Sell signal. We created each of these individual rules on the chart first.

To add the rules, make sure Stochastics is on the chart you're working with (if it's not, use the '/' key on
your keyboard to search for and add the indicator).

1. Click the Stochastics plot, select Rules, Create New Rule, and finally set the rule parameters to
Crossing Up Through a Value. Set the Value to 20, and set the color to Red.
2. Click the Stochastics plot, select Rules, Create New Rule, and finally set the rule parameters to
Crossing Down Through a Value. Set the value to 80, and set the color to Green.

Now activate the BackScanner by selecting the Flame icon on the Main Menu. Dock the BackScanner
window to the right of the chart. To do this, right-click the title bar of the BackScanner window. Then
select Dock - Right - Main Chart.

1. Drag the Red rule into the Rules area of the BackScanner. Select Buy when prompted.
2. Drag the Green rule into the Rules area of the BackScanner. Select Sell when prompted.
3. Use the Manual Start Date in the bottom-left corner of the of the Rules area to select a start
date of March 9, 2009.

Now select Results for either an individual stock or for the entire WatchList to view how the strategy
performs - pretty well as of class!
Sector Rotation using RSI
We discussed the ability to analyze Industry phase development using the RSI indicator in class. Use the
WatchList selector to change the list to the 'Morningstar US Main Industry Groups'. This should result in
a list of 31 industries.

Now add the RSI plot


to the chart using the
'/' key on your
keyboard to search
for 'Relative Strength
Index (RSI)'.

Drag the RSI plot to


the WatchList area
and select Raw Value
when prompted. You
should see a column
of values that
displays current RSI
values for each of the
industries listed.

Remember that we
categorized RSI into
four groups:
OB-MovingUp
OB-Moving Down
OS-Moving Down
OS-Moving Up

When placed into


sequential quadrants,
movement of an
industry from one of these categories through the other three phase categories represents a visual
picture of sector rotation!

Therefore, we are looking for possible deterioration of industry performance as an industry enters the
OB-Moving Down category. While possible growth industries can be identified by those that belong to
the OS-Moving Up category.
