Analyzing a candlestick chart gives a quite good idea of what is going on in the market. Candlestick patterns and the resistance or support from price pivots and rising or falling gaps together with the use of trend lines are excellent technical trading tools. Nevertheless starting a trade and deciding to close a trade, candle after candle, remains a difficult task. HACO or the "Heikin Ashi Candles Oscillator" will help you to decide. The heikin ashi candles technique was introduced by Dan Valcu [2004]. â Using the Heikin-Ashi techniqueâ , Technical Analysis of STOCKS & COMMODITIES, Volume 22: February 2004.
In this formula I am using the heikin ashi average closing price: haC haOpen:=(Ref((O+H+L+C)/4,-1) + PREV)/2; haOpen:=(Ref((O+H+L+C)/4,-1) haC:=((O+H+L+C)/4+haOpen+Max(H,haOpen)+Min(L,haOpen))/4; This is the HACO digital formula: HACO avg:=Input("Up TEMA average: ",1,100,34); avgdn:=Input("Down TEMA Average: ",1,100,34); haOpen:=(Ref((O+H+L+C)/4,-1) haOpen:=(Ref((O+H+L+C) /4,-1) + PREV)/2; haC:=((O+H+L+C)/4+haOpen+Max(H,haOpen)+Min(L,haOpen))/4; TMA1:= Tema(haC,avg); TMA2:= Tema(TMA1,avg); Diff:= TMA1 - TMA2; ZlHa:= TMA1 + Diff; TMA1:= Tema((H+L)/2,avg); TMA2:= Tema(TMA1,avg); Diff:= TMA1 - TMA2; ZlCl:= TMA1 + Diff; ZlDif:=ZlCl-ZlHa; keep1:=Alert(haC>=haOpen,2); keep2:=ZlDif>=0; keeping:=(keep1 OR keep2); keepall:=keeping OR (Ref(keeping,-1) AND (C>=O) OR C>=Ref(C,-1)); keep3:=(Abs(C-O)<(H-L)*.35 keep3:=(Abs(C-O)<(H-L) *.35 AND H>=Ref(L,-1)); utr:=Keepall OR (Ref(keepall,-1) AND keep3); TMA1:= Tema(haC,avgdn); TMA2:= Tema(TMA1,avgdn); Diff:= TMA1 - TMA2; ZlHa:= TMA1 + Diff; TMA1:= Tema((H+L)/2,avgdn); TMA2:= Tema(TMA1,avgdn); Diff:= TMA1 - TMA2; ZlCl:= TMA1 + Diff;

MetaStock Formulas HOME Back to MetaStock Formulas Overview Heikin ashi TEMA average crossing Heikin ashi, Japanese for â average bar,â is a technique used to better visualize price trends by recalculating the standard candlesticks. This technique was introduced by Dan Valcu in 2004. The average heikin ashi closing I calculate dividing the sum of the re-calculated heikin ashi values for open, high, low and close by 4. You can use a heikin ashi TEMA average smoothed value with a zero-laging technique, crossing with a TEMA zero-lagging average closing price, to create fast reliable crossings.
These are the formulas: SVE_HA_Tema_ZL avg := Input("Temagemiddelde? ",1,200,55); haOpen:=(Ref((O+H+L+C)/4,-1) + PREV)/2; haC:=((O+H+L+C)/4+haOpen+Max(H,haOpen)+Min(L,haOpen))/4; TMA1:= Tema(haC,avg); TMA2:= Tema(TMA1,avg); Diff:= TMA1 - TMA2; ZlHa:= TMA1 + Diff; ZlHa SVE_CloseTema_ZL avg := TMA1:= TMA2:= Diff:= ZlCl:= ZlCl
Input("TEMA period? ",1,200,55); Tema((H+L+C)/3,avg); Tema(TMA1,avg); TMA1 - TMA2; TMA1 + Diff;
