Heiken Ashi Delta
Heiken Ashi bars were first introduced to the Western World in an article 'Using Heiken-Ashi Technique' in February 2004 issue of TASC magazine. They sure are pretty and a good visual for the trend.
Recently, I attended a seminar by the Author of the article explaining the construct and uses of the this indicator. I have never been a serious fan of this indicator because the price bars are synthetic and of little use to me for day trading.
However, I was really surprised that a derivative of this indicator, HA Delta, is actually a leading indicator showing direction changes 1-3 bars in advance. I think it is because of the range contraction and expansion. Crossing of a 3 period EMA provides a decent signal. Thus, the motivation for writing this indicator.
Also, HA Delta acting as a momentum provides excellent divergence opportunities. However, this indicator as usual can not be used in isolation but works great as confirmation for other trading methods.
Enjoy!
