First, summarize what it does, its dependencies, license status if identifiable, and any risks. Show the exact files you propose to add under .agents/skills/ichimoku/. Do not write files or run scripts until I approve.

After I approve, install the complete skill folder, including required referenced files, into that project location. Verify it is discoverable, then tell me its actual invocation name and how to use it. Do not claim it is installed until you have verified it.

Ichimoku Kinko Hyo

Purpose

A standalone Japanese technical analysis framework that uses a five-line system and the cloud to provide a complete trend-evaluation structure:

LineJapaneseCalculationMeaning
Conversion lineTenkan-sen(9H+9L)/2Short-term trend
Base lineKijun-sen(26H+26L)/2Medium-term trend
Leading Span ASenkou Span A(Tenkan+Kijun)/2 shifted forward by 26Upper cloud boundary
Leading Span BSenkou Span B(52H+52L)/2 shifted forward by 26Lower cloud boundary
Lagging SpanChikou SpanClosing price shifted backward by 26Trend confirmation

Signal Logic

Signals are triggered only on TK crossover events, with three filters:

  • Strong buy: bullish TK cross + price above the cloud + bullish cloud (A > B)
  • Strong sell: bearish TK cross + price below the cloud + bearish cloud (A < B)
  • All other cases → stand aside

Warm-up requires 78 candles (52+26).
