Neuron Ichimoku cloud with confidence meter

NeuronIchimoku is a premium Ichimoku Kinko Hyo indicator for MetaTrader 5 from Neuron Systems. It draws the full classic Ichimoku system, projects the cloud forward of price, and scores every Tenkan/Kijun cross with a transparent five-factor confidence engine so you can see, at a glance, which crosses agree with the bigger picture and which do not. 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 or accounts.
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 line), Kijun-sen (base line), Senkou Span A and B (which form the Kumo cloud) and the Chikou (lagging) span. The math is standard Ichimoku, so nothing repaints once a bar has closed: a line or a signal that prints on a closed bar stays exactly where it printed.
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. Because the cloud leads price, you can 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 a look. 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 are marked as a signal (arrow, trade read-out and alert). This is a transparent weighted score of well-known factors, not a black box, and 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 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.
=== THE NEURON EDGE: FIVE-FACTOR CONFIDENCE ===
| Factor | Max weight | What it checks |
|---|---|---|
| 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 | 25 | A slower Ichimoku cloud on the same chart (periods multiplied, four times by default) acting 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 measuring trend versus chop, so trending conditions score and choppy ones do not. |
The five weights add up to 100. A cross that agrees with the cloud, the higher-degree cloud, the Chikou, momentum and the regime scores near the top of the scale; one that fights them scores low and is filtered out.
=== WHAT IS INCLUDED ===
| Module | What it does |
|---|---|
| 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 drawn forward of price (26 bars ahead by default) on a translucent neon back-layer, with a soft glow halo and crisp Span A / Span B edges, green when bullish and red when bearish. Adjustable shift and opacity; can be turned off for a minimal chart. |
| Neuron Edge confidence | Every Tenkan/Kijun cross scored 0 to 100 from the five fused factors above. Only crosses at or above your minimum confidence are marked, so low-quality crosses stay off the chart. Segmented gauge, A / B / C grade and a factor legend show how each score was built. |
| Dashboard | Trend-versus-cloud state (bullish, bearish or ranging) with a bars-in-state counter, the confidence gauge and factor breakdown for the latest cross, a multi-timeframe row reading the cloud bias on M15, H1, H4 and D1, and a trade read-out for the current setup (entry, stop and 1:1 / 1:2 targets in pips and in R, and as distance from entry). |
| History read-out | A descriptive breakdown of how past setups on this chart and timeframe resolved into their target and stop buckets. A record of what already happened, not a forecast. |
| Lines, arrows and alerts | Tenkan and Kijun lines (toggle), optional Span A / B edge lines and the Chikou line (off by default), flip arrows on high-confidence crosses, and pop-up, push and platform email alerts on a high-confidence cross. |
=== HOW TO READ IT ===
- Cloud bias first. Price above a green cloud is a bullish backdrop; below a red cloud is bearish; inside the cloud is mixed or ranging. The forward projection shows where that bias is heading.
- Wait for a marked cross. Only crosses at or above your confidence threshold print an arrow, so an arrow already means the cross agrees with the cloud, the higher-degree cloud, the Chikou, momentum and the regime.
- Read the grade and the gauge. An A grade with a full gauge means the factors broadly agree; a B or C means some factors disagree, so you can decide for yourself.
- Check the multi-timeframe row. When M15, H1, H4 and D1 cloud bias line up with the signal, the setup is with the bigger picture.
- Use the read-out as context. The entry, stop and 1:1 / 1:2 levels are a way to frame the idea in pips and in R; they are study levels, not instructions.
=== SUGGESTED SETTINGS (starting points) ===
These are starting points to match your style and the market you trade; they are configuration preferences, not performance recommendations. Adjust and test on your own charts.
| If you want... | Try |
|---|---|
| The classic, balanced setup | Defaults: Tenkan 9, Kijun 26, Senkou B 52, shift 26, minimum confidence 60. |
| Fewer, higher-agreement signals | Raise minimum confidence to 70-80. Only A-grade crosses are marked. |
| More crosses to study | Lower minimum confidence to about 50, and read the grade on each. |
| A stronger higher-timeframe filter | Raise the higher-degree multiplier to 5-6 so the slower cloud demands more alignment. |
| Crypto or 24-hour markets | Keep the classic periods, or scale them up together (for example 12 / 34 / 68) to slow the system down. |
| A minimal chart | Keep Span lines and Chikou off (default), cloud and Tenkan/Kijun on, arrows on, dashboard lower-left. |
| Closer or wider study targets | Lower the reward unit toward 1.0 for closer targets, or raise toward 2.0 for wider ones. |
