MA shift: Indicators line offset relate to the chart by timeframe.
shift:Index of the value taken from the indicator buffer (shift relative to the current bar the given amount of periods ago).
You can read more about shift here viewtopic.php?f=3&t=162
If you really want to learn, use the ma indicator from mt4, add it to the chart and change shift from 0 to 1, then do the same with ma shift

Please start a new thread and post your indicator. There are several version of the Ichimoku indicator so we need to check in the one you are using. Also, the shift is always positive. 0 is current bar, 1 is previous bar. See viewtopic.php?f=3&t=162
