Profitable Trading with Renko Charts

One of the oldest and most popular Japanese charting methods, Renko can be used to profitably trade all types of financial markets and instruments — and over any time frame.


Renko charts offer traders many unique and unmatched advantages over other charting methods:


• Renko charts are simple to use
