This gives us the double advantage of trading using non time based renko charts, and applying volume price analysis on the time charts. A powerful combination of six charts.

Control Your Trading Emotions by Smoothing the Price Action
Trading emotions can sabotage even the best strategies. Fear and greed drive impulsive decisions. Smoothing the price action helps remove noise. This creates calmer, clearer charts. Emotional control follows naturally.
How Smoothing Works
Use non-time-based charts to smooth price action. Renko or tick charts ignore time. They form bricks or bars only on significant moves. This filters choppy periods. Volume price analysis (VPA) becomes easier—true trends stand out without distractions.
