Is there a way to get Heikin Ashi candlesticks on a custom chart?

I would like to use them to help me stay in a trade for longer when in a green position so i dont hedge too early, and Ive heard they can help.

I've never heard of them, but you could create a chart in a spreadsheet to replicate them. There is probably a spreadsheet out there that will do this already. So you would just plug in the Bet Angel data.

Check out some stock charts which let you view Heiken Ashi candlesticks (they're sort of smoothed-out 'normal' candlesticks), and they'll make trend trading look an absolute doddle. ;)

Great for keeping you in a successful trade, but you have to give up a lot of action at the start and end of the move.

I sometimes use normal candlesticks to help me enter an Fx trade and then Heiken Ashi to help me follow the trend once in.
