Geometric Ichimoku Strategy

Geometric Ichimoku Strategy is an automated trading system that reads price through Ichimoku levels and a set of simple geometric and statistical measures: position inside the recent range, slope angle, distance to the cloud, acceleration, and the skewness, kurtosis and trend correlation of recent closes. It trades only when these measures agree and a "wait" filter is not active. Every trade can carry an ATR stop loss and take profit. It does not use martingale, grid strategies or position scaling.

Core Features

Ichimoku Levels Tenkan (9), Kijun (26) and Senkou Span B (52) are built from Donchian midpoints, with the cloud displaced by 26 bars. All periods are adjustable.

Return Statistics Skewness, excess kurtosis and the correlation between close and Kijun over the last 20 bars classify the market as bullish/bearish skew, fat-tailed, trending or chaotic.

Geometry Measures Position in the recent range, 5-bar slope angle, distance of price to the cloud, Tenkan and Kijun in ATR units, and acceleration (concave up or down).

Entry Logic BUY geometry: lower-quarter, steep-up or compressed price, above Tenkan and the cloud, accelerating up, not bearish-skewed, in a trending regime. SELL geometry: upper-quarter, steep-down or extended price, below Tenkan and the cloud, accelerating down, not bullish-skewed, not in a trending regime. Additional reaction entries on Tenkan crosses when the distribution has fat tails and matching skew. A wait filter blocks entries in flat, near-cloud or chaotic conditions.

Risk Framework Stop loss 2.0 x ATR(14) and take profit 4.0 x ATR(14) by default (1:2 reward to risk), both optional. An opposite geometry signal closes the open position.

Built-In Safety Checks Lot size follows the symbol step, minimum, maximum and volume limit, and is checked against free margin before every order. Stops respect the broker's stops level, freeze level and spread. No orders are sent while the market is closed. Optional spread filter.

Structural Architecture

Level Layer: Ichimoku levels from Donchian midpoints. Statistics Layer: skewness, kurtosis and regime correlation. Geometry Layer: range position, angle, distance, convexity. Signal Layer: combined buy, sell and wait conditions evaluated once per new bar. Risk Layer: fixed lot, ATR stop and target, opposite-signal exit. On-chart panel: shows position in range, angle, convexity, skew, kurtosis, regime, signal and open trades.

Operating Parameters

Suggested instruments: liquid symbols such as XAUUSD, EURUSD, GBPUSD, indices Suggested timeframe: H1 Recommended deposit: $500+ Minimum supported deposit: $200 Minimum leverage: 1:20 Hedging or netting account both work ECN / low-spread broker recommended The system does not use martingale, grid strategies or position scaling

Key Inputs Ichimoku periods, displacement, ATR period, statistics lookback, fixed lot, stop loss and take profit multiples, maximum positions per direction, maximum spread, skew / kurtosis / regime thresholds, magic number.

Why Geometric Ichimoku Strategy Stands Apart

Combines a classic indicator framework with measurable distribution statistics Every condition is an explicit, adjustable threshold Wait filter keeps it out of flat and chaotic conditions Defined stop and target on every trade Position size follows symbol limits and free margin

Positioning

For traders who like to build on Ichimoku but want entries to depend on measurable statistics rather than visual judgement.

Notes

• The strategy uses fixed lots by default (0.1). Reduce it for small accounts.
• Volume in the VWAP-style orthogonality check is broker tick volume, so results can differ between brokers.
• Test with real ticks and forward-test on demo before going live.
