Welcome‌‌to‌‌The‌‌Basics‌‌of‌‌the‌‌Noble‌‌

Impulse‌‌Strategy‌‌-‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌ ‌

The‌‌objective‌‌of‌‌this‌‌lesson‌‌is‌‌to‌‌provide‌‌an‌‌overview‌‌of‌‌how‌‌to‌‌properly‌‌implement‌‌the‌‌Noble‌‌
Impulse‌‌indicator‌‌on‌‌your‌‌trading.‌‌The‌‌majority‌‌of‌‌this‌‌lesson‌‌will‌‌be‌‌spent‌‌on‌‌how‌‌to‌‌use‌‌
Noble‌‌Impulse‌‌with‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌candles.‌ ‌

First‌‌of‌‌all,‌‌what‌‌is‌‌Noble‌‌Impulse?‌N‌ oble‌‌Impulse‌‌is‌‌an‌‌algorithm‌‌that‌‌runs‌‌on‌‌top‌‌of‌‌the‌‌
MetaTrader‌‌4,‌‌MetaTrader‌‌5,‌‌and‌‌now‌‌available‌‌in‌‌TradingView.‌‌What‌‌Noble‌‌Impulse‌‌
provides‌‌to‌‌users‌‌is‌‌a‌‌signaling‌‌indicator‌‌that‌‌instantly‌‌shows‌‌a‌‌buy‌‌and‌‌sell‌‌arrows‌‌on‌‌any‌‌
chart.‌ ‌

How‌‌Does‌‌It‌‌Work?‌ ‌
- Upward‌‌Signals‌‌tells‌‌you‌‌when‌‌you’re‌‌in‌‌a‌‌suggested‌‌buy‌‌area‌‌of‌‌an‌‌asset.‌ ‌
- Downward‌‌Signals‌‌tells‌‌you‌‌when‌‌you’re‌‌in‌‌a‌‌suggested‌‌sell‌‌area‌‌of‌‌an‌‌asset.‌ ‌
- Signals‌‌tell‌‌you‌‌when‌‌a‌‌potential‌‌entry‌‌is‌‌happening‌‌based‌‌on‌‌a‌‌sudden‌‌surge‌‌in‌‌
movement.‌ ‌
- Signals‌‌tell‌‌you‌‌when‌‌it‌‌is‌‌time‌‌to‌‌exit‌‌your‌‌position‌‌based‌‌on‌‌a‌‌sudden‌‌surge‌‌in‌‌
movement.‌ ‌

Overall,‌‌Noble‌‌Impulse‌‌provides‌‌a‌‌very‌‌structured‌‌approach‌‌when‌‌it‌‌comes‌‌to‌‌Trading.‌‌Its‌‌
goal‌‌is‌‌to‌‌cut‌‌losses‌‌as‌‌quickly‌‌as‌‌possible‌‌and‌‌catch‌‌massive‌‌moves‌‌in‌‌the‌‌market.‌ ‌

Best‌‌Hours‌‌for‌‌Forex/Stock‌‌Trading‌ ‌

Before‌‌we‌‌go‌‌further,‌‌it‌‌is‌‌very‌‌important‌‌to‌‌know‌‌when‌‌is‌‌the‌‌best‌‌time‌‌to‌‌trade‌‌the‌‌Forex‌‌
market.‌‌The‌‌week‌‌begins‌‌at‌‌5‌‌p.m.‌‌EST‌‌on‌‌Sunday‌‌and‌‌runs‌‌until‌‌5‌‌p.m‌‌EST.‌‌on‌‌Friday.‌‌Not‌‌
every‌‌hour‌‌of‌‌the‌‌day‌‌is‌‌equally‌‌good‌‌for‌‌trading.‌‌The‌‌best‌‌time‌‌to‌‌trade‌‌is‌‌when‌‌the‌‌market‌‌
is‌‌most‌‌active.‌‌Some‌‌movements‌‌are‌‌seen‌‌during‌‌the‌‌Sydney‌‌and‌‌Asian‌‌sessions.‌‌But‌‌the‌‌
London‌‌and‌‌New‌‌York‌‌sessions‌‌have‌‌the‌‌most‌‌significant‌‌fluctuation.‌ ‌

For‌‌stock‌‌trading‌‌in‌‌general.‌‌The‌‌first‌‌hour‌‌of‌‌trading‌‌offers‌‌the‌‌biggest‌‌moves‌‌in‌‌the‌‌shortest‌‌
amount‌‌of‌‌time.‌R ‌ egular‌t‌ rading‌‌‌begins‌‌at‌‌9:30‌‌a.m.‌‌EST,‌‌so‌‌the‌‌hour‌‌ending‌‌at‌‌10:30‌‌a.m.‌‌
EST‌‌is‌‌often‌‌the‌b ‌ est‌‌trading‌‌time‌‌‌of‌‌the‌‌day.‌‌This‌‌also‌‌depends‌‌on‌‌the‌‌volume.‌‌All‌‌markets‌‌
have‌‌different‌‌appropriate‌‌trading‌‌times,‌‌research‌‌which‌‌one‌‌applies‌‌to‌‌you.‌ ‌

This‌‌is‌‌just‌‌a‌‌recommendation,‌‌you‌‌are‌‌more‌‌than‌‌welcome‌‌to‌‌trade‌‌anytime‌‌you‌‌wish.‌ ‌




What‌‌are‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌Candlesticks?‌ ‌

Most‌‌traders‌‌prefer‌‌to‌‌use‌‌the‌‌regular‌‌candle‌‌ticks‌‌charts‌‌for‌‌their‌‌analysis‌‌but‌‌most‌‌are‌‌not‌‌
aware‌‌of‌‌the‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌candlesticks.‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌has‌‌recently‌‌gained‌‌popularity,‌‌
especially‌‌to‌‌new‌‌traders‌‌because‌‌it’s‌‌easier‌‌to‌‌identify‌‌trends‌‌when‌‌using‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi.‌ ‌

In‌‌this‌‌section,‌‌we‌‌will‌‌give‌‌you‌‌a‌‌brief‌‌explanation‌‌on‌‌how‌‌these‌‌modified‌‌candlestick‌‌works.‌‌
As‌‌well‌‌as‌‌a‌‌comparison‌‌of‌‌regular‌‌candlestick‌‌and‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌candlestick‌‌when‌‌using‌‌
Noble‌‌Impulse.‌‌ ‌

This‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌candlestick‌‌can‌‌limit‌‌the‌‌signals‌‌given‌‌by‌‌Noble‌‌Impulse‌‌on‌‌default‌‌settings‌‌
by‌‌1/3.‌ ‌

So,‌‌what‌‌are‌‌the‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌candlesticks?‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌(sometimes‌‌referred‌‌to‌‌as‌‌Heikin‌‌
Ashi)‌‌is‌‌a‌‌distinctive‌‌type‌‌of‌‌Japanese‌‌candlesticks‌‌that‌‌are‌‌calculated‌‌using‌‌the‌‌current‌‌and‌‌
previous‌‌price‌‌data.‌‌The‌‌term‌‌“Heiken‌‌Ashi”‌‌simply‌‌means‌‌“average‌‌bar”‌‌in‌‌Japanese.‌‌
Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌candlestick‌‌was‌‌developed‌‌in‌‌the‌‌1700s‌‌by‌‌a‌‌Japanese‌‌trader‌‌named‌‌Munehisa‌‌
Homma.‌‌So,‌‌it’s‌‌been‌‌around‌‌for‌‌quite‌‌a‌‌while.‌ ‌



If‌‌you‌‌look‌‌closely‌‌at‌‌the‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌chart‌‌above,‌‌you‌‌can‌‌see‌‌that‌‌it’s‌‌relatively‌‌similar‌‌in‌‌
appearance‌‌to‌‌regular‌‌Japanese‌‌candlestick‌‌but‌‌the‌‌open‌‌and‌‌close‌‌prices‌‌are‌‌calculated‌‌
differently.‌‌ ‌

How‌‌is‌‌the‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌candlestick‌‌calculated?‌ ‌

We‌‌are‌‌not‌‌going‌‌to‌‌go‌‌in-depth‌‌about‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌itself.‌‌The‌‌main‌‌goal‌‌of‌‌this‌‌strategy‌‌
section‌‌is‌‌to‌‌show‌‌you‌‌how‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌limits‌‌the‌‌signals‌‌by‌‌1/3‌‌by‌‌filtering‌‌the‌‌trend.‌‌At‌‌the‌‌
end‌‌of‌‌the‌‌day,‌‌it‌‌is‌‌your‌‌decision‌‌whether‌‌you‌‌will‌‌apply‌‌this‌‌strategy‌‌along‌‌with‌‌Noble‌‌
Impulse.‌ ‌

As‌‌we‌‌mentioned‌‌previously,‌‌the‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌candlestick‌‌is‌‌based‌‌on‌‌price‌‌data‌‌from‌‌the‌‌
current‌‌close-open-high-low,‌‌the‌‌current‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌values,‌‌and‌‌the‌‌previous‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌
values.‌ ‌

Formula‌‌to‌‌calculate‌‌the‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌candlestick‌ ‌

The‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌Close‌‌is‌‌the‌‌average‌‌of‌‌the‌‌open,‌‌high,‌‌low,‌‌and‌‌close‌‌for‌‌the‌‌current‌‌
period.‌ ‌
- Close‌‌=‌‌¼‌‌(Open‌‌+‌‌High‌‌+‌‌Low‌‌+‌‌Close)‌‌The‌‌average‌‌price‌‌of‌‌the‌‌current‌‌bar‌ ‌

The‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌Open‌‌is‌‌the‌‌average‌‌of‌‌the‌‌previous‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌open‌‌plus‌‌the‌‌close‌‌of‌‌the‌‌
previous‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌candlestick.‌ ‌
- Open‌‌=‌‌½‌‌(Open‌‌of‌‌Previous‌‌Bar‌‌+‌‌Close‌‌of‌‌the‌‌Previous‌‌Bar)‌‌The‌‌midpoint‌‌of‌‌the‌‌
previous‌‌bar‌ ‌

The‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌High‌‌is‌‌the‌‌maximum‌‌of‌‌three‌‌data‌‌points.‌ ‌
- High‌‌=‌‌Max‌‌(High,‌‌Open,‌‌Close)‌ ‌

The‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌low‌‌is‌‌the‌‌minimum‌‌of‌‌three‌‌data‌‌points.‌ ‌
- Low‌‌=‌‌Min‌‌(Low,‌‌Open,‌‌Close)‌ ‌

Significance‌‌of‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌candlesticks‌ ‌

Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌charts‌‌make‌‌candlestick‌‌charts‌‌more‌‌readable‌‌for‌‌traders,‌‌especially‌‌when‌‌
spotting‌‌trends‌‌and‌‌reversals.‌‌As‌‌a‌‌trader,‌‌you‌‌need‌‌to‌‌know‌‌when‌‌to‌‌get‌‌out‌‌as‌‌soon‌‌as‌‌the‌‌
trend‌‌weakens‌‌and‌‌when‌‌to‌‌stay‌‌in‌‌and‌‌ride‌‌a‌‌strong‌‌trend.‌‌ ‌

Overall,‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌will‌‌filter‌‌the‌‌noise‌‌and‌‌smooth‌‌out‌‌the‌‌price‌‌action‌‌on‌‌your‌‌chart‌‌by‌‌
showing‌‌data‌‌using‌‌averages.‌‌These‌‌signals‌‌may‌‌make‌‌identifying‌‌trading‌‌opportunities‌‌
easier‌‌than‌‌with‌‌traditional‌‌candlesticks‌‌because‌‌the‌‌trends‌‌are‌‌not‌‌easily‌‌interrupted‌‌by‌‌
false‌‌signals.‌ ‌



Disadvantages‌‌of‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌candlesticks‌ ‌

Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌is‌‌very‌‌useful‌‌when‌‌it‌‌comes‌‌to‌‌spotting‌‌trends‌‌but‌‌they‌‌do‌‌have‌‌limitations‌‌and‌‌
things‌‌that‌‌you‌‌need‌‌to‌‌consider‌‌if‌‌you‌‌plan‌‌on‌‌using‌‌them.‌ ‌

There‌‌are‌‌few‌‌things‌‌you‌‌need‌‌to‌‌look‌‌out‌‌for‌‌when‌‌using‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌candlesticks.‌ ‌

- The‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌candlesticks‌‌do‌‌not‌‌show‌‌the‌‌exact‌‌open‌‌and‌‌close‌‌prices‌‌because‌‌
they‌‌are‌‌averaged.‌ ‌
- The‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌candlesticks‌‌may‌‌still‌‌show‌‌a‌‌sign‌‌of‌‌trend‌‌even‌‌though‌‌there‌‌is‌‌a‌‌
minor‌‌pullback‌‌in‌‌price.‌ ‌
- Another‌‌thing‌‌you‌‌need‌‌to‌‌watch‌‌out‌‌for‌‌is‌‌the‌‌closing‌‌of‌‌the‌‌price.‌‌The‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌
candlestick‌‌does‌‌not‌‌display‌‌the‌‌actual‌‌closing‌‌price.‌‌This‌‌is‌‌important,‌‌especially‌‌if‌‌
you‌‌want‌‌to‌‌get‌‌in‌‌at‌‌a‌‌good‌‌price.‌ ‌

Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌and‌‌Regular‌‌Candlestick‌‌Comparison‌ ‌

As‌‌mentioned‌‌above,‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌tends‌‌to‌‌filter‌‌the‌‌trend‌‌by‌‌measuring‌‌the‌‌averages.‌‌This‌‌
limits‌‌the‌‌signals‌‌given‌‌by‌‌Noble‌‌Impulse‌‌by‌‌1/3‌‌more‌‌or‌‌less.‌‌Therefore,‌‌the‌‌chances‌‌of‌‌
winning‌‌will‌‌most‌‌likely‌‌increase‌‌because‌‌there‌‌are‌‌fewer‌‌signals‌‌to‌‌look‌‌at.‌ ‌

Noble‌‌Impulse‌‌with‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌default‌‌settings.‌ ‌


As‌‌you‌‌can‌‌see,‌‌there‌‌are‌‌22‌‌buy‌‌and‌‌sell‌‌signals‌‌on‌‌regular‌‌candlesticks.‌‌And‌‌there‌‌are‌‌12‌‌
signals‌‌on‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌candlesticks.‌‌This‌‌chart‌‌is‌‌just‌‌an‌‌example,‌‌there‌‌could‌‌be‌‌more‌‌or‌‌
less‌‌signals‌‌depending‌‌on‌‌the‌‌market‌‌condition.‌‌Clearly,‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌will‌‌minimize‌‌the‌‌
signals‌‌of‌‌Noble‌‌Impulse‌‌by‌‌filtering‌‌minor‌‌fluctuations.‌‌Below‌‌is‌‌another‌‌example.‌ ‌

Which‌‌Timeframe‌‌Works‌‌the‌‌Best?‌ ‌

There’s‌‌really‌‌no‌‌right‌‌or‌‌wrong‌‌answer‌‌to‌‌this‌‌question.‌‌Everyone‌‌has‌‌a‌‌different‌‌style‌‌of‌‌
trading‌‌that‌‌suits‌‌their‌‌daily‌‌schedule.‌‌Most‌‌users‌‌prefer‌‌the‌‌15-Minute‌‌and‌‌above‌‌timeframe.‌‌ ‌

Our‌‌team‌‌likes‌‌to‌‌use‌‌1-Hour‌‌timeframe‌‌for‌‌day‌‌trading‌‌in‌‌the‌‌Forex‌‌market.‌ ‌

For‌‌stocks,‌‌if‌‌you’re‌‌planning‌‌to‌‌trade‌‌daily‌‌gappers‌‌and‌‌high‌‌volume‌‌stock‌‌for‌‌day‌‌trading‌‌
we‌‌recommend‌‌using‌‌M1-M5.‌‌And‌‌for‌‌swing‌‌trade‌‌use‌‌H4‌‌and‌‌up‌‌timeframe.‌ ‌

You‌‌are‌‌more‌‌than‌‌welcome‌‌to‌‌experiment‌‌with‌‌different‌‌timeframes.‌‌Always‌‌research‌‌and‌‌
do‌‌your‌‌own‌‌due‌‌diligence‌‌if‌‌you’re‌‌planning‌‌to‌‌hold‌‌a‌‌certain‌‌stock.‌ ‌

This‌‌is‌‌optional.‌‌Though,‌‌the‌‌Heiken‌‌Ashi‌‌candlestick‌‌will‌‌filter‌‌the‌‌trends‌‌for‌‌you‌‌and‌‌
minimize‌‌the‌‌signals‌‌given‌‌by‌‌the‌‌Noble‌‌Impulse‌‌indicator.‌‌We‌‌believe‌‌that‌‌the‌‌regular‌‌
candlestick‌‌is‌‌still‌‌the‌‌way‌‌to‌‌go‌‌because‌‌you‌‌can‌‌incorporate‌‌price‌‌action‌‌with‌‌Noble‌‌
Impulse‌‌to‌‌increase‌‌your‌‌chance‌‌of‌‌winning.‌ ‌
