Heikin-Ashi Smoothed
Nikolay.Gekht · Sun Apr 11, 2010 8:14 pm
The Heikin-Ashi smoothed indicator is similar to the regular Heikin-Ashi, but:
a) uses the smoothed open, close, high and low prices b) smooths the candles
So, formula of the indicator is:
open = MVA(MVA(OPEN, N1)[-1] + MVA(CLOSE, N1) / 2, N2) close = MVA(MVA(OPEN, N1) + MVA(CLOSE, N1) + MVA(HIGH, N1) + MVA(LOW, N1)/ 2, N2) high = MAX(open, close, MVA(HIGH, N1), N2) low = MIN(open, close, MVA(LOW, N1), N2)
By default, the indicator hides the source data and is shown instead of the source. To show the both, source data and Heikin-Ashi chart:
1) Uncheck “Hide Source” on the “Data Source” tab of the indicator properties. 2) Check “Show indicator/oscillator in an new area…” on the “Location” tab of the indicator properties.
As the standard HA indicator, the HASM indicator result is a regular bar source, so you can apply any existing indicator on it.

Hi,
I have only yesterday discoverd the joy of the Heikin-Ashi Smoothed Indicator.
Is there a signal available for this type of indicator? One that signals when the bars change colour?
Many thanks and much love. XX lisa_baby_xx

Many Thanks

The formula of Heikin-Ashi Smoothed is in the top post. MVA is a simple moving average. Please see: Simple Moving Average (MVA, SMA)

What does N1 and N2 refer to?
Thanks
Re: Heikin-Ashi Smoothed

N1 and N2 are variables, which retain information on the period for moving averages, that the user has selected.

Feature Request,
Is it possible to have the standard Heikin-Ashi and this indicator without the high and low shadows so they only show the “Real Body” of the candle?
I realize this would be 2 different indicators but this would help clean up the charts.

The algorithm for the prediction would be a great help. Unfortunately I’m not sure how to write such an algorithm. The development of this something takes time and money. I have people who have experience with such problems. However, no funding for such work.

I have tried to download this indicator. HASM.lau (after your posting of fixing 2 lines) and HASMTB.lau. But when I try to get it on my chart it doesn’t change and comes up as a strategy? can someone please help me with what I am doing wrong.

See this version of indicator:
HASM3.lua
Can you do a system with HASM3 BUY/SELL when in agreement to TSF (Data Source = HASM3 Close) GREEN/RED signal where exit is a disagreement? A Daily chart for NZDJPY looks amazing. I’d be curious to back test that. As long as there is no repainting or anything false, it’s very nice.

Re: Heikin-Ashi Smoothed
rtsayers · Sat Sep 01, 2012 3:23 am
I was wondering if you code this indicator for the heikin ashi? Its called the Hadelta oscillator. Also this one in the post uses divergence. But without divergence would be just fine!
Thanks!!

Hi,
Could you possibly add the color option to this version too: HASM3.lua (hide wick version).
The original HASM version has this already, so maybe it isn’t a lot of work for you.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
Thanks for creating the MTF MCP Indicator.
It’s working well for me but I can’t figure out how to get the bar graph representation for the current chart, I only get the coloured arrows.
Can you pls explain how to do this?
Thanks for your time

I’d like to know this as well.
Also, am I right in saying, that until the bar closes, the indicator could repaint? If so, could it be made to only display when the specific timeframe period has completed? i.e. Looking at the M5 chart, the H1 HA is bullish, but the H1 candle hasn’t completed and could change.
Thanks

Re: Heikin-Ashi Smoothed
jarmush · Sun Oct 25, 2015 8:55 pm
all_in: Yes, it can change colors. Heikin Ashi OPEN is allways in the middle of the previous Heikin Ashi candle, but other candles use most actual values so can change colors (including HA CLOSE - have a look at this: http://www.technicalindicators.net/indi … hi-candles). And the HA variations behave the same. Hope this helps.
Re: Heikin-Ashi Smoothed
Apprentice · Tue Oct 27, 2015 3:39 am
“HASM” will not use HA formula to calculate. It is calculated as follows. open = MVA(MVA(OPEN, N1)[-1] + MVA(CLOSE, N1) / 2, N2) close = MVA(MVA(OPEN, N1) + MVA(CLOSE, N1) + MVA(HIGH, N1) + MVA(LOW, N1)/ 2, N2) high = MAX(open, close, MVA(HIGH, N1), N2) low = MIN(open, close, MVA(LOW, N1), N2)

I wanted to request an update to the implementation of the “On-Chart” smoothed heiken ashi.
-
Could the moving average options be updated to reflect all the moving averages available in the “Averages” indicator. I believe that the HASM3 indicator has this implementation?
-
Can the indicator be coded into an oscillator, much like the MTF version, which would just show red or green when the colors of the heiken ashi candles change?
