Heiken Ashi conditional order at close of bar?

[whirl]

Hey guys. Just seeing if this is possible. Is there a way to exit a position when the close of Heiken Ashi candle changes color on a 5 minute bar?
Ideally I'd like to close a position at the end of the trend when the candle closes red after a series of green bars for example. Is something like that possible? I have no real scripting skills. Thank you

Have you looked at what Dublin Capital has done with HA Just Assume Seven strategy? Maybe it can be adapted to what you are looking for. Tweak the seven rule and 30 min to 5 min.

@RickAns Thank you for that, nice interesting read. Yes, some additional rules would be needed but interesting to base on, always nice to hear near ideas.

Right now, I have a scan for when Heiken-Ashi candles change color in a TOS watchlist. But when trying to create a conditional order, I don't know how to create a script to exit a position when the color changes at the end of the bar.

If nobody here knows how to code this exit, would anyone by chance point me in the right direction of someplace that could do it for me? Thanks in advance.

Is there a website that has programmers for hire? I'm guessing this should be a quick fix. I know TOS has some of the studies built in, but not sure how to tell it to exit when the colors change. Thank you

Did you ever figure this out? I am also trying to create a conditional order based on Heiken but it fails. You can create a chart study and it alerts (works), but fails when trying to add to conditional order.

@dvorakm In order to exit a trade based on Heikin Ashi you need to define the Heikin Ashi prices within the Conditional Order script... That is the only way the code knows the Heikin Ashi values... Close in Heikin Ashi is actually (Open + High + Low + Close) / 4, or ohlc4... And close is the same as last until the candle closes... The following code is what I use in all of my Heikin Ashi scripts for...

def haClose = ohlc4;
def haOpen = (haOpen[1] + haClose[1]) / 2;
def haHigh = max(high, max(ha_close, ha_high));
def haLow = min(low, min(ha_open, ha_close));
