#or paste directly into your Claude Code terminal

[ ABOUT ]

Computes three of the five Ichimoku components: Tenkan-sen (9-period midpoint), Kijun-sen (26-period midpoint), and a boolean flag indicating whether the current close is above the Kijun-sen. The midpoint calculation uses (period_high + period_low) / 2, the definition used by the original Ichimoku system.

The Ichimoku system provides a complete picture of trend, momentum, and support/resistance within a single indicator. Price above the Kijun-sen with Tenkan > Kijun is the most straightforward bullish condition. For full cloud calculations, extend the function to compute Senkou Span A ((Tenkan + Kijun) / 2, projected 26 bars forward) and Senkou Span B (52-period midpoint, projected 26 bars forward).

[ USAGE EXAMPLE ]

example.py

cloud = ichimoku(high, low, close)
# → {"tenkan": 98200, "kijun": 95800, "above_cloud": True}
