Kees,

Heiken-Ashi is an indicator and a charting method. What you have 
plotted is the indicator. There are add-on programs that can 
chart/plot the Heiken-Ashi style. There has also been a program 
written that will do it. To understand the Heiken-Ashi I would tell 
you to go back and reread the prior articles that the author wrote. 

As far as what you did...I wasn't there so I have no idea. Sounds 
like your formula was missing an output. Try this:

{HEIKIN-ASHI}
haOpen:=(Ref((O+H+L+C)/4,-1) + PREV)/2;
haC:=((O+H+L+C)/4+haOpen+Max(H,haOpen)+Min(L,haOpen))/4; 
haC;
{end}

Hope this helps,

Preston
