  • HA Open = (Open (previous) Close (previous)) / 2
  • HA Close = (Open (current) High (current) Low (current) Close (current)) / 4
  • HA High = The highest between the High (current), HA Open, and HA Close
  • HA Low = The lowest between the Low (current), HA Open, and HA Close

The HA Open is always at the midpoint of the previous candle as it is the average value of the previous open and close. Meanwhile, the HA Close is the average value of the four prices in the current period.

It is possible for a Heikin-Ashi candlestick to not have an upper shadow if the current High is not the actual high of the current period. Likewise, a Heikin-Ashi candlestick may not have a lower shadow if the current Low is not the actual low of the current period.

If you use the candlesticks along with resistance and support lines, you will never get lost - and never guess your way around. Simply pay attention to sentiment shifts that are reflected by the candlesticks formations that occur or coincide with significant support or resistance lines – particularly those that pop up – in the level of historical highs or lows. With a great degree of accuracy, the market is likely to either 'hiccup' or take a big leap forward from that point.

In fact, there is no better tool to use to formulate a profitable swing trade strategy except with candlesticks along with resistance and support lines.

This is because the Heikin-Ashi candlesticks calculate the average values.

A bullish candlestick pattern always appears in a downtrend. It is characterized by the price moving lower, typically shown via red or black candles. Then after that, there's a large candle often colored green or white, which is larger than the previous bearish candle.

The same concept goes to the bearish engulfing pattern but in the opposite way. The price should be going up and then there's a large down candle that envelops the last up candle. This means that the sellers are entering the market aggressively.
