Heiken Ashi Algo Volume Scalping Strategy
Heiken Ashi Algo Volume Scalping Strategy
Welcome everybody this is your Barista Eric should I be calling it a baristo cuz Barista sounds kind of effeminate and you can tell by my voice I am not a woman.
So we got something interesting.
Today I'm going to be sharing with you a volume scalping strategy that you can use with the heiken Ashi Algo.
This is a wonderful strategy because the algo has a lot of features that plot onto its oscillator and you can actually turn most of them off you only need basically three things showing up.
To do this all you need are:
Heiken Ashi Candles
The RSI Moving Average and
RSI (relative strength index line)
So let's go into the settings. I'll show you what to do and you'll be able to get started in this in just a few minutes.
Open tradingview and go to the indicators and I'm going to type in Heiken Ashi Algo. There you will see it under the Community scripts by @coffeeshopcrypto the "Heiken Ashi algo Oscillator"
Here is a link to it
(Click there)
Add it to your chart and let's go to the settings.
In the style tab of the settings You can turn off both of the stochastics.
Also you'll notice a couple of grade out boxes to things that are not selected. The RSI upper band and the RSI lower band. These print the 70 and the 30 level on your oscillator so turn them both on. If the other bands distract you you can turn them off. These would be the 40 and 60 levels.
The last thing you want to do here is change your RSI to yellow and your RSI moving average to red.
Now let's go to the inputs tab and change your RSI to 18 and RSI Moving average to 36.
If you're trading on a higher time frame than one hour you should probably change them to 21 and 50 as a maximum..
If you're trading on a 15 minute or lower time frame you should set them to about 12 and 14 or or lower.
Also change your RSI moving average type to a volume weighted moving average.
*******************Special Note******************
I want to address a couple of questions I got since the release of the Algo and one of the questions that I tried to cover in the previous couple of videos was when someone is going to ask me "what are the best settings at certain time frames?" You have to understand there are no best settings because if you're trading in crypto against the US dollar or crypto against For example another crypto then things move differently. your settings for the US dollar can be set one way but if you're trading crypto against crypto pairs you need different settings. also the settings are really tied to the market that you are in. if you are trading on the S&P or indices or Futures your settings are different for all of those things they are not the same for either one of them and once you get into crypto the markets are so volatile that you need to watch things closely/ so I cannot tell you what are the best settings because the best settings do not exist. Choose the settings that work well for you and if they are not working well it's because the market is changing just a little bit and you need to start developing additional strategies. You can not just have one strategy that you use all the time because that will not work all the time. Markets change. They have four different versions and you need to have several strategies that will be able to address each one of those types of Market.
One of the reasons that I've created this particular indicator is because it allows you to develop several different types of strategies and this particular video is one of those strategies that you can practice and you can use from time to time when you are seeing extremely changing volumes in the market that you're in. This way you have another piece of ammunition in your pocket that you can use when your current strategy or whatever you used to using isn't working as well as it should be.
