The time series is defined by the user depending on the type of chart desired (daily, hourly, etc.). Instead of using the open-high-low-close (OHLC) bars like standard candlestick charts, the Heikin-Ashi technique uses a modified formula:


Close = (Open+High+Low+Close)/4
Close = (Open+High+Low+Close)/4 <br>
Open = [Open (previous bar) + Close (previous bar)]/2
Open = [Open (previous bar) + Close (previous bar)]/2<br>
High = Max (High,Open,Close)
High = Max (High,Open,Close)<br>
Low = Min (Low,Open, Close)
Low = Min (Low,Open, Close)
