NeuronIchimoku is a premium Ichimoku Kinko Hyo indicator for MetaTrader 5 from Neuron Systems. It reads the chart and helps you judge trend, the cloud and the quality of each Tenkan/Kijun cross. It is an indicator for chart analysis only: it does not place, modify or close trades, it does not send orders, and it does not manage positions.
Native MQL5, no DLLs, non-repainting closed-bar logic. Works on any symbol (forex, gold and metals, indices, crypto) and any timeframe.
=== HOW IT WORKS ===
NeuronIchimoku starts with the full, classic Ichimoku set computed on closed bars: Tenkan-sen (conversion), Kijun-sen (base), Senkou Span A and B (the Kumo cloud) and the Chikou (lagging) span. The math is standard Ichimoku, so nothing repaints once a bar has closed.
The signature feature is the projected future Kumo. Instead of leaving the cloud flat under price, NeuronIchimoku draws it forward of the current bar (26 bars ahead by default) on a translucent back-layer neon canvas behind the candles, so the candles stay crisp and readable. You get a soft neon glow halo with crisp Span A and Span B edge lines, coloured green when the cloud is bullish (Span A above Span B) and red when it is bearish. This lets you see where the cloud's bias is heading before price reaches it.
The second pillar is the Neuron Edge engine. A plain Ichimoku gives you a Tenkan/Kijun cross and leaves you to guess whether it is worth taking. NeuronIchimoku scores every cross from 0 to 100 by fusing five deterministic, classic factors, and only crosses that score at or above your chosen threshold fire as a signal (arrow, trade read-out and alert). The five factors and their maximum weights are:
- Cloud position (25): whether the cross is above, inside or below the Kumo, in the direction of the cross.
- Chikou clearance (15): whether the lagging span confirms the same direction.
- Higher-degree cloud alignment (25): a slower Ichimoku cloud on the same chart (the periods multiplied, four times by default) acts as a higher-timeframe trend proxy that stays backtestable and non-repainting.
- Momentum (20): whether RSI agrees with the cross direction.
- Regime (15): a Kaufman efficiency ratio measures trend versus chop, so trending markets score and choppy markets do not.
This is a transparent weighted score of well-known factors, not a black box. Because every factor is computed bar by bar from the chart's own data, a past cross is scored exactly the way a live cross would be, which keeps the on-chart history honest. The dashboard shows the score as a segmented gauge (each factor is its own coloured chunk), an A / B / C grade and a factor legend, so you can see at a glance why a cross did or did not qualify. Confidence here describes the quality of the setup, the agreement of the factors at the moment of the cross, not a likelihood of a winning trade.
=== WHAT IS INCLUDED ===
Full Ichimoku engine
- Tenkan-sen, Kijun-sen, Senkou Span A and B (the Kumo) and the Chikou span, standard Ichimoku math on closed bars.
- Non-repainting: lines and signals lock once a bar closes.
Projected future Kumo
- The cloud is drawn forward of price (26 bars ahead by default) on a translucent neon back-layer so the candles stay crisp.
- Soft neon glow halo plus crisp Span A / Span B edge lines; green when bullish, red when bearish.
- Adjustable forward shift and cloud opacity; the cloud can be turned off entirely for a minimal chart.
Neuron Edge confidence engine
- Scores every Tenkan/Kijun cross 0-100 from five fused factors: cloud position, Chikou clearance, higher-degree cloud alignment, momentum and regime.
- Only crosses at or above your minimum confidence fire as a signal, so low-quality crosses stay off your chart.
- Segmented gauge, A / B / C grade and a factor legend show exactly how each score was built.
Dashboard
- Trend versus cloud state (bullish, bearish or ranging) with a bars-in-state counter.
- The confidence gauge and its factor breakdown for the latest cross.
- A multi-timeframe row reading the cloud bias on M15, H1, H4 and D1.
- A trade read-out for the current setup: entry, stop and 1:1 / 1:2 targets shown in pips and in R (and as distance from entry).
- A descriptive breakdown of how past setups on this chart and timeframe resolved into their target and stop buckets. This is a record of what already happened, not a forecast.
Lines, arrows and alerts
- Tenkan and Kijun lines (toggle), with optional Senkou Span A / B edge lines and the Chikou line, both off by default for a clean chart.
- Flip arrows printed only on high-confidence crosses (toggle).
- Pop-up, push and platform email alerts on a high-confidence cross.
