Heiken Ashi No Wick Strategy

This strategy trades against Heiken Ashi candles that appear without wicks. A bullish Heiken Ashi candle whose body is larger than the previous one and lacks a lower shadow triggers a short entry. A bearish candle with a longer body and no upper shadow opens a long. Positions close when an opposite candle without the respective wick forms.
