// This is a backtest of the Smoothed Heikin Ashi Trend indicator, which computes the reverse candle close price required to flip a heikin ashi trend from red to green and vice versa. Original indicator can be found on the scripts section of my profile.

// Default testing parameters are 10% of equity position size, with a 1% stop loss on short and long strategy.opentrades.commission

// This particular back test uses this indicator as a Trend trading tool with a tight stop loss. The equity curve as tested seems promising but requires further work to refine. Note in an actual trading setup, you may wish to use this with volatilty filters as most of the losses are in sideways, low volatility markets.
