This indicator is based heavily on Nicolas’ work on Bullish and Bearish Heiken Ashi screener and should only be considered an add-on.

I sometimes use this Heikin Ashi Trend screener to find trending assets for possible trend continuation trades. The indicator counts how many green/red candles the asset has accrued in the current cycle. You can add bull-trending assets (high value positive Strength criteria) and bear-trending (low value negative Strength criteria) to a watchlist. You then watch these assets for pullbacks to find trend continuation trades, using like Nicolas’ Bullish and Bearish Heiken Ashi screener above.

ONCE Bull = 0
ONCE Bear = 0
ONCE xOpen = 0
xClose = (Open+High+Low+Close)/4

if(barindex>2) then
 xOpen = (xOpen[1] + xClose[1])/2
endif

c1 = xClose>xOpen
c2 = xClose<xOpen

IF c1 THEN
 Bear = 0
 Bull = Bull + 1
ELSIF c2 THEN
 Bull = 0
 Bear = Bear - 1
ELSE // IF xClose and xOpen are exactly the same value
 Bull = 0
 Bear = 0
ENDIF

Grade = Bull + Bear

SCREENER[c1 OR c2](Grade AS "Strength")
