Most unfortunate fact seems to be that all these software vendors use different 
formulas for calculations of most poular technical indicators.

As far as stochastic is concerned look up Stochastic Process by George Lane,
 the originator of this indicator.

His original formual is:

%K = 100 [(C-Ln) / (Hn-Ln) ]
%D = 100 (Hm-Lm)

where 
C - latest close
Ln - lowest low for the past n days
Hn - highest high for the past n days
Hm - m-day sum of (C-Ln)
Lm -  m-day sum of (Hn-Ln)

You can read great explanation of this in Joe DiNapoli's "Trading with DiNapoli 
Levels"

Pricey book but a good read. Lots of Fibbo stuff.

Sorry no ela though. Maybe some coders on this list will write it for you.

Best of luck
