Don't have your head in the clouds..
Well, except for the Ichimoku Clouds
Its probably one of the best overlays you can utilize; it shows momentum, trend change, you name it, it can do it (even wash the kitchen sink).
Todays Chart
(scroll down)
Although it may look like just a bunch of lines and colors, there are actually 5 important parts to this:
1. Conversion Line
2. Base Line
3. Lagging Span
4. Leading Span 1
5. Leading Span 2
What they do:
1. Conversion Line
Think of this one like a little puppy. All up in your grill. It follows the price movements the closest.
2. Base Line
This one is like the Conversion Line, accept it doesn't care about the price as much. Notice it's not all up in the PPS's grill.
3. Lagging Span
Putting it simply, the trend is up when this line is above whatever the closing price is, and its the opposite when its below it. Notice as of today, it's going up.
The Lines that form the Cloud:
4. Leading Span 1
Notice the red cloud is surrounded by two lines; one red, one green
Why is it called a 'leading' span? Because just like Doc Brown who had a DeLorean time machine, the leading span 1 is placed 26 DAYS into the future . This line moves faster than Leading Span 2. GREAT SCOTT!
5. Leading Span 2
Trend is down when this line is ABOVE the green line. Notice how the chart is showing signs of a cross between the two lines sometime around April 1st (if the trend remains constant).
What the heck are we looking at in this paint-by-number chart?
Trend
First off, trendwise (is that a word?), the trend is up when prices are above the cloud, and down when prices are below the cloud. Considered flat when prices are in the cloud.
Leading Span 1 and Leading Span 2
Notice Leading Span 1 is at the bottom of the chart (green line) while the red line (which forms the cloud) is above it.
As you can see in the chart, the two lines are getting REALLY close to each other. With the upcoming release of the 10-K, among other things (notice the cloud goes out to April 1st), it is my opinion the lines will cross which will indicate a strengthening of the reversal in trend.
When this happens, the nasty RED cloud will turn a pretty GREEN indicating the trend has increased in strength, and unicorns and rainbows will encompass the world (not sure about that last part).
Obviously nothing is perfect and nothing can 'predict the future', but the Ichimoku Cloud is great for helping investors make better informed decisions.
Keep an eye on where the price is; underneath , inside, or above the cloud. Do your DD, learn how to read charts, don't listen to me, this is all my opinion, be your own person.
