Heikin Ashi

A modified candlestick charting technique that uses average prices to filter market noise and better visualize trends. Smooths out volatility for clearer trend identification.

Example

A swing trader switched to Heikin Ashi candles on the daily BTC chart, which smoothed out the choppy price action and made it easier to identify that the overall trend was still bullish.
