Ichimoku Indicator with a Tenkan–Kijun Distance Cloud

Article MQL5 code base

Summary

This document describes a visual modification to the standard Ichimoku indicator. It fills the area between the Tenkan-sen and Kijun-sen lines with a colored histogram, making the distance between those lines easier to inspect on a chart. The stated purpose is improved visual analysis of the two lines; the document does not explain a trading signal or entry and exit rules.

The source provides no formula, parameter guidance, performance evidence, or comparison with the unfilled indicator. It therefore supports only a narrow takeaway about chart presentation, rather than a validated trading method. Traders would need further documentation and independent testing to decide whether the display aids interpretation or decision-making.

Key ideas

  • The indicator overlays the standard Ichimoku lines.
  • It colors the space between Tenkan-sen and Kijun-sen to show their separation.
  • The document presents the fill as a visual aid, not as a standalone trading rule.
  • No performance evidence or decision parameters are provided.
