Ichimoku Score by KingThies

21. Apr. 2020

iScore, is an Ichimoku-based scoring system, in which individual Ichimoku events are measured by their impact, and then counted towards a greater score, leaning either bullish or bearish. The score tends to be between -3 and 3 for 99% of occurrences. Scores above or below this range are abnormal to say the least.

How the Score is Calculated

• Bearish events are negative points. When the score is below zero, bears have control of the given TF. In theory, when the iScore is falling, the market is in downtrend. Note the divergences on reversals. iScore tends to lead price.
  
• Bullish events are positive points. When the score is above zero, bulls have control of the given TF. In theory, when the iScore is rising, the market is in uptrend. Note the divergences on reversals. iScore tends to lead price.
  
• Bullish Events Measured: TK Bull Cross, PK Bull Cross, Lagline Bull Cross, and Leadline Bull Cross
  
• Bearish Events Measured: TK Bear Cross, PK Bear Cross, Lagline Bear Cross & LeadLine Bear Cross
  

The location of the events are also a factor in the scoring system. Locations include above the kumo, inside the kumo, and below the kumo, and are then prioritized in their own respects, based on the standard rules interpretation of Ichimoku signals, which users can read more into if interested.

iScore can be applied to any ticker by any trader, and is not limited to any specific TF. Its programmed in Pine version 4 and uses Heikin Ashi inputs for OHLC, although traders are able to use with any chart type.
