[RESEARCH] Heikin-Ashi Chart Identifier

Aug 22, 2019

A deterministic approach to identify Heikin-Ashi chart type.

The script checks the next statements about HA:

• HA chart does not have any gaps in a classic sense
  
• Every new HA open price is calculated using a specific recurrence formula. This fact also means that initial HA open price is used to calculate all the next and so on (a construction of Infinite Impulse Response filters)
  

The script works correctly being applied to other chart types:

Classic Candlestick


Range Bars


Line Break


Traditional Renko


ATR Renko


Traditional Point-and-Figure


ATR Point-and-Figure


Kagi


For special ones: this code allows you to check whether your script is being executed with Heikin-Ashi candles or not inside your script.
