Ichimoku Alert(s)?

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone out there knows of an Ichimoku indicator that has been programmed with alerts? I use the "clouds" to bias my trade direction and would love an alert when Senkou Span A crosses UP and DOWN Senkou Span B. Anything out there before I attempt at programming one myself (scary thought, lol)?

Thanks,

Eric

Itangsanjana,

Thank you for the link, I had been a follower of that thread and found the MTF indicator useful in trading, but the heads up was much appreciated.

Fxxx,

Thank you for your link. I had not come across your post reading through the thread as it seemed to have died out a few months ago. But it seems like is has been revived over the last week or so, and that is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks again!

Cheers,

Eric

This is the only version i have. It play alert when tenkan cross kijun and chikou span cross the price. For senkou Span A cross senkou Span B Alert i thing you have to add the code. Sorry i am not a coder, can't help you to code.Regards,mattrader

Hey Guys, thank you for posting the ichimoku alert indicator. however, I don't seem to have it working. I loaded it on the charts and changed the alert mode from 0 to 1 to 2 to 3 and none of the alerts come up for me. If anyone could point me in the right direction on how to fix it I would appreciate it.

TwOeleven,

The indicator as posted works fine for me. Are you sure you are getting crosses?

Here is the legend for the Alerts:

1 : Tenkan crosses Kijun - BUY Uptrend - SELL Downtrend

2: Chinkou crosses Price - BUY Uptrend - SELL Downtrend

3. Will Alert you to both instances of the above.

One thing I noticed if the Tenkan and Kijun are equal, which can happen, no alert is sounded until it breaks in the opposite direction of the previous alert.

I hope this helps, play with some short settings on the M1 chart to see if you can verify in fact that you are not getting alerts.

Guardian, thank you for your reply. I actually did try the one minute chart before posting my problem. I downloaded the indicator into the appropriate folder, restarted MT4, attached the indicator alert to my charts and chose alert mode 1 for the t/k cross(instead of leaving it at zero). After that, I just waited for the t/k to cross and nothing happened. If I missed a step in there, I'd love to hear back. Otherwise, I'm not sure what to do.

TwOeleven,

Everything on your end sounds correct. But just to verify, you placed it in the Indicators folder that is located in the Experts folder? If so, I'm really at a loss to help otherwise because I just drop it in and it works great... perhaps a fresh install of MT4 may help out as well in the event that something became corrupted along the way...

Thanks for sharing this GREAT indicator.I really need it!

Here are two Ichimoku indicators. Combined they will give alert for all 5 Ichimoku trading strategies. Good luck trading.

Thank you so much
