When apply a strategy to Heikin Ashi Candle chart (HA candle), the strategy will use the open/close/high/low values of the Heikin Ashi candle to calculate the Profit and Loss, hence also affecting the Percent Profitable, Profit Factor, etc., often resulting a unrealistic high Percent Profitable and Profit Factor, which is misleading. But if you want to use the HA candle's values to calculate your indicator / strategy, but pass the normal candle's open/close/high/low values to the strategy to calculate the Profit / Loss, you can do this:
1) set up the main chart to be a normal candle chart
2) use this indicator script to plot a secondary window with indicator looks exactly like a HA-chart
3) to use the HA-candle's open/close/high/low value to calculate whatever indicator you want (you may need to create a separate script if you want to plot this indicator in a separate indicator window)

//@version=2 // Note: // if you only want to see the Heikin Ashi Candle but not the normal Candle, // change the overlay option to overlay=true, then hide the normal Candle study("I_Heikin Ashi Candle", shorttitle="I_HA Candle", overlay=false) // --------------- Calculating HA Candle's values // -- you can use either one of the methods below, they give the same values // Method 1 - calculate the HA candle's value by formula haclose = (open + high + low + close) / 4 haopen = na(haopen[1]) ? (open + close) / 2 : (haopen[1] + haclose[1]) / 2 hahigh = max(high, max(haopen, haclose)) halow = min(low, min(haopen, haclose)) // Method 2 - calculate the HA candle's value by pine script function heikinashi() // haclose = security(heikinashi(tickerid), period, close) // haopen = security(heikinashi(tickerid), period, open) // hahigh = security(heikinashi(tickerid), period, high) // halow = security(heikinashi(tickerid), period, low) // --------------- Using HA Candle's values to define indicators // then use the haclose, haopen, hahigh, halow to calculate whatever indicators you want: // e.g. // 1. stochastic // k = sma(stoch(haclose, hahigh, halow, 14), 3) // d = sma(k, 3) // 2. sma // sma14 = sma(haclose, 14) // 3. ema // ema14 = ema(haclose, 14) // --------------- Plotting plotcandle(haopen, hahigh, halow, haclose, title='Heikin-Ashi', color=(haopen < haclose) ? green : red, wickcolor=gray) // END
