Request for an "Complete Ichimoku strategy"

Hello,

I would like to request an ICHIMOKU strategy that uses all the 5 lines of the Ichimoku indicator (it could be named "Complete ICHI starategy" for this reason).

The rules for this strategy are the following:

LONG ENTRIES (all the following points MUST be set to open a position, please see example in the attached file):

Price above Kumo (greater than Senkou A (SA) and Senkou B (SB))
Tenkan (T) greater than Kijun (K)
Chikou (C) greater than price 26 periods ago
Future (26 periods ahead) SA greater than Future SB
T and K greater than SA and SB

RISK MANAGEMENT FOR LONG ENTRIES:

Position size: 10K as standard (allow to change for optimization)
Stop loss: set 50 pips below K as standard (allow to change for optimization)
Trailing stop: Yes/No. If yes, trail following K less 50 pips as standard and exit when price reaches this point (allow to change amount of pips for optimization)
Take profit in pips (only allowed if trailing stop is set "No"): allow to set the amount for optimization. Exit when price reaches this point.
No additional enties allowed if the position is still open.

SHORT ENTRIES (all the following points MUST be set to open a position, please see example in the attached file):

Price below Kumo (less than Senkou A (SA) and Senkou B (SB))
Tenkan (T) less than Kijun (K)
Chikou (C) less than price 26 periods ago
Future (26 periods ahead) SA less than Future SB
T and K less than SB and SA

RISK MANAGEMENT FOR SHORT ENTRIES:

Position size: 10K as standard (allow to change for optimization)
Stop loss: set 50 pips above K as standard (allow to change for optimization)
Trailing stop: Yes/No. If yes, trail following K above 50 pips as standard and exit when price reaches this point (allow to change amount of pips for optimization)
Take profit in pips (only allowed if trailing stop is set "No"): allow to set the amount for optimization. Exit when price reaches this point.
No additional enties allowed if the position is still open

-------------------------------------------------

General comment: Could it be possible to programming the strategy for clearly mark the long entry/exit and short entry/exit in the graph?
For example, changing the colour of the candles to mark where the long entry and exit has been done and another different colours for the short entry/exit
(Any other possibility ??)

-----------------------------------------------------

I hope the attached file clarifies the requirement but please let me know if you need any additional input from my side.
Thanks a lot !!!

Thanks a lot Apprentice.

One detail that I forgot to mention in the requirement (altough is stated in the attached graphs): all the rules for long/short entries must be set at the close of period "x" and if so, the position is opened in the next period (x+1) at the open of that bar/candle.

Thanks again.
