Hi - thank you for your comment - could you elaborate as to why this is better than the HA code posted at the beginning of this thread?

@MatthewTherrien That would be up to you to decide... What I can say is that the code in the other topic is still actively being improved, unlike the code in the first post which is dated from 2013... Read both topics from beginning to end, perhaps test both HA scripts, and decide for yourself... Don't take our opinion, form your own... After all, it'll be your money at risk...

Thank you for your reply. I have read both threads completely and take your point about the newer HA still being improved - I will continue to test the Completed HA Indicator you reference

 
I've read in another thread altogether under usethinkscript.com where you, @BonBon and others re-created the TrendTraderPro indictors for trading. I can't seem to get any of that code work right. Would it be possible to get a copy of the scripts to make it look similar to the picture shown above? I'm just asking. If not, I understand.
Thanks,

Thanks,
@MatthewTherrien its great you have success with this heikin_Ashi smoothed.

@mas429 @MatthewTherrien, I created my version of the HA after researching viable indicators and created the "Completed Heikin" thread to obtain feedback from members. It is a smoothed HA and is similar to other indicators. However, is also different. The script is complete. ( have completed all the backtesting and added additional updates (these are new based on my final research into ways of improving the indicator. The completed version has not been uploaded into thread).

@rad14733 is correct in noting that members should do their due diligence regarding the indicators used.

At this time the comments are closed within the thread as I found some members were more interested in copying the script after I completed each section rather than providing viable feedback etc.

post #134 has the most updated script. Hope this helps.
 
@GetRichOrDieTrying A while back, I tried to duplicate the Trend Trader Pro indicator from pictures on their site. My conclusion was that it is simply two Donchian Channels and a version of the ATR Trailing Stop. You could easily compare those indicators to the screenshots you received and decide if the Trend Trader Pro is worth it. I myself would never pay that much for any indicator.

Edit: I might be referencing a different indicator that costs $1-2K. Still, no indicator is worth that much IMO. The indicators provided here for free at useThinkScript are far more than anyone could ever want or need to be successful.

I'd be willing to review what you have if you like... Either here or via Discord...
Sure! I'm not on Discord though. So far I am finding that it performs similarly to MA strategy on heavily trending stocks, and better on stocks that have choppy price action. The one hour chart seems to be where it's performing best. Here's the strategy code. Thanks for taking the time to look at this. I do appreciate it.
Code:
#(Consensus Confirmation) CC Candles V.1 
#Created 04/28/2021 by Christopher84
#Based off of the Confirmation Candles Study. Main difference is that CC Candles weigh factors of positive and negative price movement to create the Consensus_Level. The Consensus_Level is considered positive if above zero and negative if below zero.
