Cloud breakout is an enhancement of TradingView's built-in Ichimoku Cloud Indicator. By default, only the cloud is visible. The other Ichimoku lines can be toggled on if needed. This indicator focuses on the breakout of the Kumo cloud. An additional simple moving average filter can be added as well.
Breakout Condition
2 candlesticks are part of the breakout condition
Candlestick 1: 'open' price is still within the cloud and 'close' price breaks out of the cloud
Candlestick 2: 'open' price confirms that candlestick 1 'close' remains as a breakout
There are 4 possible breakout conditions: 2 bullish direction moves crossing each senkou span and 2 bearish direction moves crossing each senkou span
Note: ranging markets will cause false breakouts, so a moving average is integrated to help filter this out
Moving Average Integration
A simple moving average can easily be toggled on/off to filter out cloud breakout signals
The SMA length and color can be adjusted in the settings
Alerts
There are 2 alert options: bullish or bearish
Alerts will confirm if the Moving Average Integration is activated
