finding a scale that doesn't change with price (like pips)

 

Hi everyone

I've been developing an EA that works with ichimikou cloud, and I consider tall and fat clouds as a way to give me signals, but the problem is that if right now a cloud is 200 pips and I look at it on the chart and consider it as a tall cloud, later in the future or in the past due to price changes, I find another cloud that is 200 pips tall but doesn't look tall on the chart but still is signal in my EA

so what metric or scale should I use that is persistent all the time?

That is up to you. Perhaps 50% larger than average.
