Smoothing out price

Recommended Posts

Walter, thanks for your input. Unfortunately, if the lag is excessive, then I wouldn't have as much interest in this method as I first thought. Maybe in time I will try out Sierra, and I'll just use Raul's posted workspace. Thanks for the prompt replies.

I am sorry guys I've been trying to logon and for some reasons I just can't at least from my location.

 

does anyone still following this method?

 

I also have been out of the markets for health reasons

 

Cheers

Hi, am I allowed to bump this thread? I hope so.

 

I never really liked HA candlesticks because what you're looking at isn't true price and therefore I always assumed it was pointless.

 

This thread has shown a good way to see trends (albeit on HA candlesticks) by using an HMA(8) over the HA candlesticks.

 

What you need to do in order to see exactly how much lag there is, rather than doing side-by-side comparison charts of HA vs. regular, is to do this instead:

 

- Load your HA candlesticks as a study on your chart

- Apply HMA(8) to the HA candlesticks

- Color your main price chart based on the slope of the HMA(8) that has been applied to the HA candles.

 

This will let you see in real time and with actual price data what is going on with regard to your trend-defining indicators on the HA candle sticks. In other words, where your main price chart changes color is where your HA slope is changing.

 

Hopefully that made sense. I'm really tired right now so I hope I explained everything well.

 

Here's a pic:

 

edit - I can't believe I misspelled Heikin-Ashi in my pic. I even study Japanese so I shouldn't have gotten it wrong. Oops!

Now, if you compare that to the HMA(8) based off of the regular chart, you will see that they are almost the same but in some cases the HMA(8) based off of the actual price will change slope quicker (as you would expect it to because it's not based on lagging HA data).

 

In the attached screen shot, the first row of boxes shows the slope of the HMA(8) based off of actual price data and the second row of boxes shows the slope of the HMA(8) based off of Heikin-Ashi candles.

 

This is the same chart as before so the data is the same.

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful. Remember, sometimes what you throw in the garbage is something that someone wishes ever to have.” – ElZee, Quora   Profits from free accurate cryptos signals: https://www.predictmag.com/
