chuck,
a possible workaround is to plot the equity line as an indicator.this
example might not be exact be may be a starting point.
setup := (ref(l,-1) < ref(h,-2)) {initial gap}
and (ref(h,-1) > o); {open less than last week high}
cum(if(setup,c-o,0));
the resulting indicator would be the profit/loss in points. unfortunatly
there are no buy/sell arrows.
i'd be interested in hearing your conclusions on the patterns. after
quickly testing them myself i discounted the equilateral quads as i
couldnt duplicate the authors results. the soybean gap pattern looks
promising but has to few trades to be conclusive. it also failed to work
in other time frames which is something i like to see. if you could
foward your conclusions i would appreciate it.
thanks,al
