Heikin-Ashi Charts > Candlestick Charts
It’s impossible to get the market trend right 100% of the time by just looking at candlesticks.
The solution? Heikin-Ashi charts.
Easier to decipher, Heikin-Ashi charts are made up of a different kind of candlestick. This modified candlestick chart helps cut the noise and identify patterns and trends easily. By the way, you can learn a profitable Heikin-Ashi trade setup from a derivatives trader with 15+ years of experience here.
One can clearly notice the difference:
 Candlestick chart |  Heikin-Ashi chart |
Heikin-Ashi charts can be combined with a ‘super’ indicator for an excellent swing trading strategy. Let’s learn how!
Swing Trading with Supertrend Indicator
What if we told you that there is an indicator that will help you in identifying market trends by plotting a line on the chart that acts as a dynamic support and resistance for the stock’s price?
We are talking about the Supertrend indicator!
This indicator combines the average true range (a measure of market volatility) with a multiplier to calculate its value. This value is then added to or subtracted from the asset’s closing price to plot the Supertrend line.
The Supertrend is a lagging indicator, and most helpful when prices are going in a clear direction.
Here’s a swing trading strategy using the Supertrend indicator on Heikin-Ashi charts:
Note that we will use an ATR length of 10 periods and a factor of 2 for this strategy, and look at charts in the daily or weekly timeframe.
Entry> A previous downtrend should be in place, indicated by a red Supertrend line. Note that when the Supertrend line turns positive, the angle should be steep. The steeper the line, the greater the momentum. | Exit> A previous uptrend should be in place, indicated by a green Supertrend line. Note that when the Supertrend line turns negative, the angle should be steep. A steeper angle is better confirmation. |
