Ichimoku Cloud Trend Signals with Moving Average and RSI Filters
Summary
This strategy combines Ichimoku signals with moving average and weekly RSI filters. It proposes long entries when the Tenkan line is above the Kijun line and price is above the cloud; short entries use the reverse conditions. Optional trend filters compare the 50-day and 200-day moving averages, while weekly RSI thresholds further restrict entries. The cloud boundary is intended to provide a trailing stop, and separate exits are described around Kijun crossings or a reversal in the Tenkan–Kijun relationship.
The document supplies default indicator parameters and a BTC/USDT futures backtest configuration, but no performance statistics. The source leaves its date-range condition permanently enabled, so the configured dates do not actually restrict trading. It also uses a cloud boundary for stops, though the assigned stop level is not updated as a true trailing level after entry. Multiple filters may reduce trade frequency, and lagging indicators or range-bound price action can still produce late or false signals.
Key ideas
- Tenkan–Kijun relationships generate directional signals, with cloud position used as trend confirmation.
- Optional 50-day and 200-day moving average comparisons filter long and short entries.
- Weekly RSI thresholds provide an additional momentum filter.
- Cloud boundaries are assigned as stop levels, with other exits based on Kijun and crossover conditions.
- The published configuration includes no performance results, and the source has implementation limitations in its date and trailing-stop logic.
