Ichimoku Cloud


Ichimoku Kinko Hyo Cloud is a complex indicators which consists of 5 lines. However, we will not go into such details. We only talk about the practical part which is the cloud as the name mentions. There are two colours of the clouds: usually red and blue (depends on the tools used). In the following example, red is the supportive cloud and blue is the resistive cloud. There are two main functions of the cloud.



1 Cloud act as support/resistant area

When stock price is in the uptrend, stock price always above red cloud. Red cloud will serve as supportive area. When stock price fall and touching the boundary of red cloud, it usually will rebound. 




2 Break Through Cloud

When the stock price in an uptrend originally above the red cloud break through the red cloud and stay below the red cloud, it is the sign of changing of trend. The red cloud will subsequently change colour to blue cloud and blue cloud will serve as the resistive area for the stock price.
