What is an Ichimoku Cloud? In today's short [What is an Ichimoku Cloud?] video 🎥, we will be diving into the world of trading and discussing one of the most popular technical indicators - the Ichimoku Cloud. This cloud-like formation on the chart is made up of five different lines, each representing a different aspect of market trend.
