The following code will decide if the last extreme is a peak or a 
trough, will find the best-fit parabola and will plot it on the price 
chart.
The color will be red/green for descending/ascending parabola.
A red/green arrow marks the last peak/trough.
The parabolic coefficient f has a crude 100-step and then another, 
more detailed approximation.
The parabola function p is outside any loop and may be used for cross 
conditions.
Since it is a best-fit curve, it changes every day, as new data are 
imported.
The logic is to engulf the Highs [for the descending curve] and the 
Lows [for the ascending curve] with a curvilinear trendline.
