Tested the Day Trading Strategy x100 Times: Heikin Ashi + Parabolic Sar + EMA

[@shawntuason1528]

Wow, another amazing video! Lots of new learnings.I'm taking notes manually, since I'm not good with excel.I will backtest this. Thank you.

[@TradingJournal1]

Cheers! I try to share notes in my recent videos so that you don't have to bother while watching

[@danzi333]

I’m pretty sure you’ve missed something here.....with heiken ashi candles you can’t see where the price closed. It’s not at the top/bottom of the full bodied part of the candle, it could be in the wick section. Therefore making this results potentially a little off.

[@kerryriordan8662]

HA can be placed below the chart so it does not obscure the price

[@animaysh]

Also in TV settings you can force it to show actual price on the price line, not HeikenAshi price.

Good video showing the necessary 'boring' work that makes traders succesful. Backtesting + journal.

[@TradingJournal1]

Glad you liked it!

[@thatpanamahatlife1497]

Thanks for the video. Always been interested in Heikin Ashi and the SAR-never thought of putting them together. When I look at a strategy I always go and find the worst price action I can on a chart and see how it stacks up. I particularly like how this keeps you out of a number of bad trades (not all of course). Just had a look at it over a few timeframes and it looks really good! Between the HA and SAR (So we can call it the HASAR strategy??? 😁) we can get a good idea of what the trend is doing. I also like how it gets you an entry AS the momentum is increasing (usually anyway). I'm going to add it to my backtesting and test the crap out of it on the 4hr. Then I'll try on a Demo if it's checks out. Thanks again!

[@TradingJournal1]

That is smart. Feel free to share your HASAR backtest results with us 😁

[@catmay5723]

Fantastic video, thank you for doing the test. Over what period of time did you take the 50 trades (was it more than two months worth of data) and did you trade every signal, or did you only trade the signals you would have taken during your personal trading hours?

[@TradingJournal1]

Thank you! To be honest I don't remember the period of time it took and it was 100 trades instead of 50. Nope, I have taken every trade, not according to my trading hours. Excellent question!

[@TradingJournal1]

Yes, I have. It was profitable, but not as much as lower timeframes.

Hi, did you include brokerage fees in your backtest ? thanks ! Does it work on action market ?

[@TradingJournal1]

Hey, unfortunately I haven't.

[@khamesha8579]

Great explanation ☺️. I started using it briefly today. I combine it with the Solar Winds Indicator and the Bulls and Bears Power indicator and the 200MA, 50MA and I Love it! I always mark my charts before applying any indicator though. Thank you for sharing!

Nice video that reminds me of a year when I was so broke that I could barely pay my bills. I remember the most important step in my life when I invested my last income with an experienced Forex trader who was recommended to me by a friend. It was a bit difficult for me to do then, but it took courage to know that investing was the right thing to do at the time.

[@CountDain7]

Thanks for the strategy. I am more of a 1hr/4hr timeframe type of trader. I would try this if this applies to my situation.

[@TradingJournal1]

Best of luck!

[@sebastien5266]

Thanks for your input, really clear! does this strategy works with Btc/usd contracts on bitmex for exemple ?

[@TradingJournal1]

Well, impossible to tell without a backtest. But it usually works on leveraged products.

[@pacifictv7214]

whats a pivot candle?

[@TradingJournal1]

It is the candle that the trend is changed (also the color).

[@mehdigh.851]

Wow tnx sir for the test. Please do more test for other strategies you use.

[@TradingJournal1]

More to come!

[@skyflat221]

Nice one and great videos, very clear for beginners. Any Ideas how we could potentialy even increase the winrate slightly that you noticed during the backtest? Would you recomend adding another confirmation maybe, to avoid certain situation where loosing trades happend the most? Thank you!

[@TradingJournal1]

Thanks! It is a pullback buy strategy, so you can check if there is a support level near your entry it can boost. Also you can try to combine it with the RSI, but unfortunately I haven't tested it yet.

[@drpipsfx1763]

Hello sir i want to ask am using mt4 on trading but am using trading view in analyse but the candle of heikin ashi are different with mt4 . How can enter in the market ? I will use buy/sell stop or buy/ sell limit ? Please help me sir 🙏

[@AndyBlackxoxo]

There is discrepancy between the R:R of the backtested Heiken Ashi candle closes vs the regular candle close which the order would be placed. A 2R win in the backtest for a isolated trade may actually only be 1.3R in reality for example. The regular candles generally close higher (for a long) than the backtested entries therefore deeming the results inaccurate? Not to mention the affects on your position size calculation before entering the trade.

[@fuskomartin]

Greetings, and thank you for a great video. I see a problem in that Heiken Ashi candles do not show the real price 🤔 how then set the SL? According to Parabolic SAR for Heiken Ashi candles or normal candles showing real price? Can you help me?

[@TradingJournal1]

Great point! Yes, Heikin Ashi represents the price differently. You should use limit order and your trade&stop-loss should be based on Heikin Ashi price. And you should be careful if the difference between the real price and your entry is big. Sorry, I forgot to mention it!

[@fuskomartin]

@@TradingJournal1 Thank you for your response. I really appreciate your time to answer. The answer helped me, at least in part. Have a nice day. By the way, great job.

[@rajkupani2495]

What is the setting for parabolic sar please explain

[@barkntuncer9680]

I would like to ask a question. When you lose or win a trade your capital changes so the losing money and the winning money. How do you end up with a %38 profit? I mean if you lose 7 times in a row that means your capital is reduced by a lot to even that out you should maybe win 5 times

[@TradingJournal1]

Yes, you are totally right! Actually, the answer depends on your way of backtesting. There are 2 ways: if you don't use compounding, it doesn't make any difference. You are assuming that you are trading with the same size(for ex. 1000$ each trade). Another way, you use compounding, so when you are on a losing streak you lose less on each trade, but when you are in a winning streak you win bigger on each trade(for ex. 1000$, 1050$ 1100$). It depends on which type of trader if you use it or not. I used compounding for 2 years to grow my account regularly. And I use the same trading size on each of my trades now.

[@arthurbates2665]

I used this strategy this morning, trading the ESM21 using the 5 min chart. Worked like a champ with a 2:1 RR. It works great on a 15 Min as well. On the entry candle I wait for a pullback to trade below the entry price, and wait for price to come back and trade thru the entry price. Maybe a little less draw down. Thoughts?

[@TradingJournal1]

Nice work! Glad to hear that, enjoy your profits!

[@moneyliveworldwide7409]

Are you moving stop loss to break even after 1R is is reached?

I usually move them while trading, but I haven't moved them for the test.

[@claytonwolk6764]

Nice strategy! Would this work better if you did 1:1 ratio? You should look into a 3rd confirmation for this strategy, seems to have more potential! Better than most indicator strategies!!! I’ll do some back testing on different pairs to see if there are better pairs to use this on. Thank you!

[@TradingJournal1]

Yes, it can work better with 3rd confirmation. I never trade with risk/reward ratio less than 1.5, so I haven't tested it. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Mahault2269]

Hi, what were your results ?

[@leedonelwood]

Great video and great testing, thank you. I'm curious if this would improve at 1.5 RR instead of 2 RR?

What about the price data? Does this strategy gives many signals or not? My problem with the MACD is sometimes, it gives few signals..

[@TradingJournal1]

You can find many entries with this strategy, if you scan many markets! As you see, I use 5 minutes candles for this strategy, lower timeframe allows for many entries.

If this strategy is doing by more people, whether it may not work ?

Every strategy out there will get old eventually. That is why risk management skills and psychology are more important than strategy.
