Ichimoku Ultra-Trend

Ichimoku Ultra-Trend is a highly optimized trend-following strategy designed to capture major market movements while filtering out noise.

Unlike traditional Ichimoku strategies that rely solely on the TK Cross (Tenkan/Kijun), this script utilizes the often-overlooked power of the Chikou Span (Lagging Span) as a primary breakout trigger, combined with a triple-layer trend filter system.

🌊 The "Zen Mode" Philosophy
_______________________________________

This version (V15) introduces "Zen Mode" visualization. We have removed the cluttered background stripes and replaced them with discrete, high-precision markers:

• Neon Purple Dots (Origins): Mark the exact moment the Chikou Span broke through the Cloud 26 periods ago. This explains the "Why" behind every trade signal shown on the chart.
  
• Trend Candles: The entire candle anatomy (Body, Wick, Border) changes color dynamically based on the trend status (Neon Purple for Bullish, Dark Violet for Bearish).
  
• Clean Chart: No unnecessary noise. Just price action and signals.
  

🚀 Strategy Logic
_______________________________________

1. The "Triple Filter" Trend System
Before looking for entries, the market must pass three strict conditions. For a LONG setup:

1. Price must be above the Kumo Cloud (Future Sentiment).
   
2. Price must be above the EMA 172 (Long-Term Baseline).
   
3. Price must be above the SMA 50 (Medium-Term Momentum - Optional).
   

This ensures we only trade in the direction of the dominant flow.

2. The "Chikou Breakout" Trigger
Instead of waiting for a lagging TK Cross, we enter when the Chikou Span (Close price shifted back 26 bars) breaks through the Cloud of the past.

• This signal often precedes a major explosive move.
  
• It confirms that current momentum has truly overcome historical resistance.
  

3. The "Dip Re-Entry" Mechanism
If the trend is strong (Tenkan > Kijun), the strategy will add positions (pyramiding or re-entry) when price pulls back to the Tenkan-sen and bounces. This maximizes profit during sustained trends.

4. Smart Exit & Risk Management

• Trend Exit: Positions are closed when the Tenkan-sen crosses below the Kijun-sen (Trend weakness).
  
• Split Stop Loss: Independent Stop Loss controls for Long and Short positions (Default 3.5%).
