wantonellis......
here is a good video and explanation of using using HA with a smoothing technique. as the trend wanes the candles get narrower. I thing there are a few folks on TradingView who have the code and use it.

Sorry, what I meant to say is can the prior days bar change, I could have sworn they did on Tradingview.
Tqqq had a Green Day yet the candle is Red. So is Tqqq a short in your book?
This takes 2 days bars into consideration right? I’m on vacation and haven’t studied them much.
Based on the HA formula the prior day bar shouldn't change. At the end of the day the daily HA is set. At the end of the week the weekly HA is set and so on. Yes two bars to calculate.
The Heikin-Ashi Formula
Normal candlestick charts are composed of a series of open-high-low-close (OHLC) candles set apart by a time series. The Heikin-Ashi technique shares some characteristics with standard candlestick charts but uses a modified formula of close-open-high-low (COHL): Here's the formula -

Looks like TQQQ is currently red on the monthly, weekly and daily HA charts.

So do these Heikin Ashi Candles change and mutate throughout the day. Is that what I’m seeing. What about playing daily candles, would that not be so good? I haven’t studied them.
The monthly HA charts are very good for identifying and keeping with the trend. For example when the SP500, DJIA and Nasdaq indexes are all green on HA monthly charts that's a good time to take chances in the market. As far as changing and mutating it doesn't matter if it's a bar, candle or HA. They all change and mutate. The HA's are averaging price so they're smoother in appearance. I'm back testing a few strategies and so far the further I get away from daily prices and stick to monthly the better the results.

wantonellis, here is my post where I tackled Heikin Ashi candles.
Not an easy task. Would be a nice feature from SF to expand out the charting to Monthly and add HA charts.

Pull up a monthly Heiken-Ashi Chart. Just like driving. When green go trading. When red stop trading.

Do you have any suggestions for picks that may have better upward traction than others ?
There's really no way of knowing the answer to that. You could add day change > 0 to the filter. At least you will know the price has begun to move up. For me, I would put a buy stop above the high and a sell stop below the low. If you get filled and the stock moves up track your stop loss up to lock in a gain. If you get filled and the stock doesn't go your way, you get stopped out with a small loss. For me that would be 1/4 of 1% (0.0025) of total capitol. Good luck.
