The second important signal is a change in the direction of movement of the Kumo cloud. This change is marked with a vertical purple line on the chart. The appearance of orange color in the cloud indicates a change in the main direction of movement to upward.
The current situation:
Let's carefully look at the current values of the main components of the Ichimoku indicator to assess the current state of the market:
The price is currently above the Tenkan and the Kijun lines. It indicates a temporary slowdown in movement and a potential price consolidation.
The dynamics of price movement over a longer distance is determined by the Kumo cloud, which is now colored orange. Thus, this signal prioritizes the upward vector of price movement in the future.
Currently, the Kumo cloud lines represent a dynamic support area for price.
Used by investors to identify a change in trend, the green Chinkou line is held below the price on the chart.
Trading recommendations:
Dynamic support levels are on the Tenkan line, around the 2709.613, the SenkouA line, at the 2694.682, and the SenkouB line, around the 2682.930.
