What This Setup Is

An Ichimoku-style continuation setup that uses the Kijun as a pullback reference, then waits for price to reclaim and hold before going long.

Why It Fires

The Kijun often acts like a mean reversion reference inside a trend. In mild risk-on and normal volatility, a reclaim can signal buyers are defending the trend instead of letting it roll over.

Exact Trigger Checklist

  • Chart: MNQ 1-minute bars with Ichimoku references available.
  • Trend must be intact before the pullback.
  • Price pulls into or below Kijun and then reclaims it.
  • Required filter: regime_label+prior_vol_regime=mild_risk_on+normal.
  • Risk model: Kijun reclaim invalidation with a 2R target.

Good Conditions

  • The Kijun pullback is orderly rather than a liquidation move.
  • Risk regime is mild risk-on and prior volatility is normal.
  • The reclaim holds on the first retest.
  • Cloud or nearby resistance is not directly overhead.

Avoid Conditions

  • Price accepts below Kijun after the reclaim attempt.
  • The cloud is flat and price is chopping through it.
  • Prior volatility regime does not match the saved filter.
  • The setup fires after the trend has already exhausted.
