Ichimoku cloud won’t show up when adding it in TradeStation..

If you’re trying to add Ichimoku cloud to your chart and you receive the error, “This analysis technique attempted to reference too many bars to the right of the chart.” then you haven’t created sufficient space to plot ichimoku cloud into the future. Since ichimoku defaults to 26 bars ahead, you need to make that much room for it in your chart, otherwise you’ll get that error. By increasing “Bars to the right” to 25 or higher, it should allow a 26-bar lookahead to work properly. Note that this error will disable the indicator so after you adjust the bars to the right, you must re-enable it to see it.

This is covered in the Setting Up Renko Charts in TradeStation video knowledge base article if you need further demonstration of how this is done.
