The chart on the right is a Heikin Ashi chart. The left chart is a Renko chart with a $0.06 brick size based on five-minute closing prices. The following example chart for Brent Crude Oil shows approximately half a day of price history. One Renko brick could take multiple days to form, while on another day, many bricks may form, depending on how much price action there is. Renko charts are not based on time, only price movement, although time is still placed on the x-axis of the chart. Therefore, it takes a $2 drop (or two chosen brick sizes) for the Renko chart to start moving down. Renko bricks move and drop at 45-degree angles and are never directly beside each other. For example, if the box size is $1 and the trader is using a five-minute Renko chart, a new box will form when the price moves up a dollar or more on a closing based on the five-minute chart. A new Renko box forms when the price of the underlying asset moves the required amount. The size can be selected (such as $1 or 30 pips) or it can be based on the average true range. Renko charts also smooth out price movements, but they use a different formula and have a different look.Ī Renko chart is composed of bricks or boxes of a certain size. A Heikin Ashi chart takes an average of prices to create candles.
