Yes, Ken, I'd like to look at the code, if you
wouldn't
mind forwarding what you have (as long as it is not
proprietary or infringes on Equis' copyrights).
I'm essentially looking to create Experts and
Explorations, but System tests would be fine as well.
My problem is, I know how to establish where 2
significant peaks or troughs are, but I do not know
how
to create and access the data of the possible line
connecting them.
Let's say I created an Exploration that identified a 3
peak pattern, which constituted a textbook H&S
pattern-the ability to connect a line between the last
two significant troughs of the pattern, and know when
the close violated the line connecting the
troughs,would give MS at least a crude pattern
recognition ability.
Thanks for you willingness to share what you have.
