You\u2019re probably familiar with the three popular chart types: gr\u00e1fico de l\u00edneas<\/strong>, bar chart<\/strong>, and the candlestick chart<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But there\u2019s another type of chart that you should know about that uses a totally different technique to display price action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

En Heikin Ashi<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like the beer?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Heikin<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Umm nope. Let\u2019s focus now. We\u2019re NOT talking about beer here!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re talking about CHARTS! (Although the spelling does seem pretty close.\u00a0)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHeikin Ashi<\/strong>\u201d, also known as \u201cHeikin-Ashi<\/strong>\u201d o \u201cHeiken Ashi<\/strong>\u201d is a charting technique used to display prices that, at a glance, looks similar<\/em> to a traditional Japanese candlestick chart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The difference is the method used in how candlesticks are calculated and plotted<\/strong> on a chart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Traditional Japanese candlesticks<\/a> are great at helping you find good entry points since they display potential reversals (like a shooting star) or breakout (like a bullish marubozu closing above a resistance level).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But what about once you\u2019re IN a trade?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Applying the Heikin Ashi technique to a price chart can help you decide whether to stay in the trade or get out<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heikin Ashi charts make candlestick charts more readable<\/strong> for traders who want to know when to stay in a trade and ride a strong trend and when to get out when the trend weakens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Basically, Heikin Ashi is a modified candlestick charting technique<\/strong> that rearranges<\/em> how the price is displayed so trend traders can have a higher confidence level when deciding whether to remain in a trade or exit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some traders, usually longer-term traders, use Heikin Ashi charts as an alternativa<\/em> to traditional Japanese candlestick charts<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other traders use them in conjunction<\/em> with traditional Japanese candlestick charts,<\/strong> switching back-and-forth between the two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bfQu\u00e9 es el Heikin Ashi?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In Japanese, Heikin means \u201caverage\u201d and Ashi means \u201cpace\u201d. So together, Heikin Ashi means the \u201caverage pace of price\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Jap\u00f3n\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Heikin Ashi is a type of candlestick charting technique used to help filter market noise<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Heikin Ashi technique was created hundreds of years ago by Munehisa Homma<\/strong>, a rice merchant from Sakata, Japan, who is considered the father of the candlestick chart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So Darth Vader is to Luke Skywalker, as Munehisa Homma is to Heikin Ashi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Father<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Homma realized that by tracking the price action in the rice market, he could actually \u201csee\u201d the psychological behavior of other market participants, and make use of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s an example of a Heikin Ashi chart<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Heikin<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

To the untrained eye, the chart looks<\/em> like your typical Japanese candlestick chart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each Heiki Ashi candlestick has a body<\/strong> and an upper and\/or lower shadow<\/strong> (or wick<\/strong>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Heikin<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

They\u2019re the same right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s a BIG difference between the two types of candlestick charts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
