I use MT4, Heiken Ashie aint the best but it can help with retracements I use a smoothed version I think I got on FF. I thik it's better on the bigger frames. Here if anyone wants it Edit..can't seem to load it up so just do a search on FF for Smoothed Heiken Ashi indicator if you want it {image}
Guys Heiken Ashi put me all wrong on the 4 hour chart yesterday need to be careful if using it

China’s crude oil imports hit monthly record in April - China Customs
8 May 2019, 09:39

The latest trade balance report from the Chinese General Administration of Customs showed on Wednesday that China imported record high oil, in an unexpected move, Reuters reports.
The China Customs noted that the surge in the Chinese oil imports is because the state-run refiners built up stocks of Iranian crude oil anticipating a sanctions clampdown.

Key Details:

Imports last month were 43.73 million tonnes, equal to 10.64 million barrels per day (bpd).

That compared with 9.26 million bpd in March and was up 11 percent from the April 2018 level, according to Reuters calculations.

China, the world’s biggest oil importer, took in 164.9 million tonnes of crude during the first four months of 2019, or about 10.03 million bpd, up 8.9 percent on the same period a year earlier.

China’s Iran crude oil imports rose to 24 million barrels or about 800,000 bpd in April, the highest since August, as buyers rushed in shipments before the U.S. sanctions waiver deadline of early May, Refinitiv data showed.”

breaking resistance (62 area) is crucial on multiple timeframes.

Hello sponge,
I know zero about H.A. but maybe H.A. on TF M30 or H1 could follow better the current swing amplitude of Oil

Hi valter, Yes I think you could be right the bigger frames take so long to give direction when the market is going sideways.

Ashi is very similar to MA's lines being far apart indicating the trend as with Ahshi having fuller candles but as the lines come together or the candles become smaller the trend in in question.

Long story short....good for trending markets .

Most systems got killed in ranging markets. Try to find some additional strategies which suits you the best under these circumstances.

It depends on what you mean for trend, on which TF ?
Try H.A. on M30 or H1 and maybe yesterday it was ok to take a short

On a 4HR chart , i'm seeing a risk to the downside to 60.07. If the market takes us there , I would feel more comfortable going long from that level , right now "as I speak". I can see why a long entry would be a good move from the current level as well , but , I'm wondering if it's a "trap" at this level.

Regards ,

May contract on H4:

The median failed to break above EMA20 and downtrend line at ~61.87, then fell through uptrend line at ~61.55.

The H4 downtrend from Apr 25 has not been broken.
