In Julia's earlier webinar about ichimoku she shared code for the chiku scan - "Plot = Price.Last(-26)"

As I understand it, one of the bullish conditions is with the chiku scan value being greater than the price (directly below it on the chart)

What would the real code be for that condition?

Thanks
BobMc

btw - there is a Wiki about the ichimoku that gives a lot more information.  See it at

Also, how do I reduce the opacity of the cloud?

Bruce, I thought I could get to the shading color from your instructions, but...

Found the diagram (untitled) below the SenkouA and SenkouB and there were blocks/shapes for channel top & bottom.  Also 3 shapes (circles) labeled top, bottom and shade and unconnected to anything.  However the only property I found by left clicking was shapes.   What am I doing wrong to get to the other properties?

Regards

You are almost there.

Think about where you selected the untitled diagram on the right hand side of the Block Diagram itself.

Above that, there will be a thin bar with two down arrows (more like triangles than arrows actually) separated by nine dots. Click on this thin bar to expose the Properties section (and change the down arrows into up arrows).

The Fill Opacity will be in this Properties section.

and in FreeStockCharts one just clicks on the indicator, chooses Edit, and up pops a box allowing each component of Ichimoku to be edited for color and opacity and other settings.  really be nice if the paid product (Stockfinder) was this user friendly.  got to admit that SF does push out the 26 period extension and in FSC you got to do it yourself.
