The best Heiken Ashi implementation I have seen!!!

[crmcwi]

Guys,

I'm trying to use HASmoothed in a strategy, but I keep getting errors in my log. Has anyone encountered problems and have you found a solution?

Here's what I get:

I'm having trouble using this indicator in a strategy. The log shows the following entry:

Error on calling the 'OnBarUpdate' method for indicator 'HeikenAshiSmoothed' on bar 1: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

My code is simple enough:
protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{

HA_Open1 = HeikenAshiSmoothed(0.7, HAMA.SMA, HAMA.SMMA, 1, 2).HAOpen[1];
HA_Open0 = HeikenAshiSmoothed(0.7, HAMA.SMA, HAMA.SMMA, 1, 2).HAOpen[0];
HA_Close1 = HeikenAshiSmoothed(0.7, HAMA.SMA, HAMA.SMMA, 1, 2).HAClose[1];
HA_Close0 = HeikenAshiSmoothed(0.7, HAMA.SMA, HAMA.SMMA, 1, 2).HAClose[0];



if (HA_Open1 > HA_Close1 && HA_Open0 > HA_Close0)
{
ExitLong("ExitLongHeiken", "LongOnHeikenReverse");
EnterShortLimit(DefaultQuantity, GetCurrentAsk(), "ShortOnHeikinReverse");

}
// Condition set 2
if (HA_Open1 > HA_Close1 && HA_Open0 > HA_Close0)
{
ExitShort("ExitShortHeiken", "ShortOnHeikenReverse");
EnterLongLimit(DefaultQuantity, GetCurrentBid(), "LongOnHeikenReverse");
}
}

I use this indicator every day and that's a feature I've wanted ever since I started using it. Like you said, it'd be very useful for S/R and TLs. Maybe someone here can dial this in, or else maybe I'll pay someone to do it and pass it along . . .

Hi Powerballad,

I'm trying to build at least a portion of the code into my strategy to keep it from blowing up. I'll apprise as I make progress. Thanks.

to know what the current price is plot a 1 period sma (dot) of the close. It will move inside the current HA bar and show where the last price is.

Thanks. I think I've found a slightly better solution, as follows:

1. In the HA indicator properties, set "Bar Type" to "3, Both".
2. In the chart properties, set down bars and up bars to the same color that the "Shadow Color" is set to in the HA properties.
3. Change "Chart Style" to HiLo.

This results in the HiLo bars extending the HA wicks to their true level without affecting the HA bodies. The HiLo bars actually blend in perfectly with the HA wicks, so it's pretty seemless. This method should save a little more memory than the SMA method.

I really like the option of painting price bars along with the HK bars. Is there anyway to set the HK parameters so it is NOT smoothed? I want to see what a regular HK looks like along with the price bars. Much appreciated!

Scratch that last post. Figured it out...

Importing gives lots of errors..

Although a proper conversion would be optimal, i'd like to mention that the t3 slope value (positive/negative) gets really close to this as does macd using 5,13 with a smooth of 1. When the plot is above zero the bar is blue, when below its red etc..

do we have a ninjatrader version of this file - file is a mq4.

[FredMorgan]

Do we have, or can anyone out there write a script to give an audible alert when the Haiken Ashi candles change colors (using green and red).

I was asked via email if I could convert this to NT7. Figured it would be best to post it here for everyone to use.

Although NT7 has a built in T3, I kept the original T3 from this file and renamed it to T3Mod. This was done to keep the calculation as close to the original MQ4 code as possible.

Hello,

I will have someone reply to you on Monday. Thank you for your patience.

To the poster below:

I don't trade futures, but generally the market shouldn't matter.

To each his own, but a few indicators I personally like:

-This one.
-SuperTrend
-FibLines
-QQE
-ASCTrend
-StepMA7.1
-KasePeakOscillator and Permission Function (real versions, not the clones)
-The JurikUT package.

Anyone using this version of SMOOTHED HA (from post #23) with any success in the beta #21 of NT7??? I tried to import this exact post .zip file but getting errors.....hmmmm?
