 The Heikin-Ashi code topic has information that should allow you to add Heiken Ashi Candles to your Chart using a RealCode Indicator. You'll probably want to change the Plot Style of the Indicator to Candlestick or OHLC Bar.

 Bruce:

I got the Heiken Ashi code that you wrote and put it my SF4.......I just upgraded to SF 5 and, evidently, it didn't copy over to SF 5 properly. The bars are not painting in the SF 5 program. The tech person I talked to couldn't fix it and said I probably needed a new Heiken Ashi real code for SF 5. Do you have one please? The HA's were beautiful SF 4. I didn't really want to upgrade but SF 4 was such a memory hog I felt I needed to.

 Hi biggolfer2,

The 'paintbrush' code Bruce shared within the post referenced above can be implemented in SF5.  You'll need to create a new Paint Scheme.  Select the Paint Scheme drop down (from the bottom left corner of the Price pane); then choose New Paint Scheme.  Within the editor that appears, place a checkmark next to Apply RealCode.  Then Edit the RealCode, pasting Bruce's code into the editor.  You may name the Paint Scheme and save it for future use.

I cleared the Heiken Ashi indicator that transfered over from SF 4 into SF 5. I recopied the Heiken Ashi code that Bruce wrote(the first one...close vs close) and applied it in SF 4. I worked perfectly. I did the same thing with the code he wrote to color the Heiken Ashi bars(the first one). The codee is NOT coloring the Heiken Ashi bars in SF 5. I NEED to get the HA bars to color.

 biggolfer2,
The following RealCode (taken directly from the original post) works correctly for me both as a SF4 Paint Brush on the HA Indicator and as a SF5 Paint Scheme on the HA Indicator:

If Line.Value > Line.Value(1) Then
    PlotColor = Color.Green
Else If Line.Value < Line.Value(1) Then
    PlotColor = Color.Red
Else
    PlotColor = Color.Yellow
End If
