MO - do you use this for options, looking at weeklies? Maybe that's a better question for a PM, if people only want to talk FX.

the "Dragon-Ashi" is a modified Heiken-Ashi; half line chart & half HA.

Why do I do this?

HA's close = (OPEN + HIGH + LOW + CLOSE) / 4
the OPEN & CLOSE are very random pieces of data so I remove them for added chart stability:
DA's close = (HIGH + LOW) / 2

It looks like HA, but it is not HA:

Thx Mo
The bars I've got on there are APB actually which are again similar to HA but not exactly the same although the multi meter is standard HA

With options, the option price is the main chart and the graph of the commodity is secondary.

I mainly use a line chart (HL/2), running through price bars, to trade commodities (prev. close = next bars open)

Half of the learning experience is applying what you have learned :lol:

Everyone can see a 1-2-3 small-larger-larger & large-smaller-smaller, it is what it is.

Everyone can see price close over or under something, it is what it is.

Reach down and grab your balls man :lol:
life is about learning from mistakes, not about being perfect :wink:

yeah, but I will add a golden rule:

-the shorter the time frame the more willing you should be to take action WHEN you see something instead of waiting for the perfect price.

When using space, it is not about the entry but whether or not you can afford 00.
It is not about "adding", at x price, but where you want to keep/move 00.

Of course,goes without saying, its all about the placement of 00
