Heikin-Ashi | Technical Indicators

The Heikin-Ashi technique is used in conjunction with candlesticks to identify and analyze trends. Looking very similar to a candlestick chart, a Heikin-Ashi chart is made up of Heikin-Ashi bars, that are each calculated as an average of past price movement.

There are mainly 4 types of Heikin-Ashi bars, both on the bullish and bearish, and look like the following 👇🏼

But, weren’t candlesticks simple enough to understand?

Though the candlesticks theory is reliable and simple, there exist over 50 signals, and analyzing candlesticks can be tedious. Heikin-Ashi charts solve this problem by giving a simpler and smoother chart.

Giving limited signals, Heikin-Ashi charts allow for a sharper assessment of the trend, filtering out all the market noise.

Note, however, that because Heikin-Ashi is a modified candle, its opening and closing prices would not be the same as a regular candle. There are no gaps seen on a Heikin-Ashi chart as well.
