Appendix C: TradeStation Code for the MIDAS Topfinder/Bottomfinder Curves ported to Tradingview
This script requires a working understanding of "Midas Technical Analysis" Google "Midas Technical Analysis" and a variety of information will appear.
To find fit the curve as described in the Midas book a companion script is required that will after a few manual iterative inputs guide you to the appropriate D value for the for input into this program ( see the TB-F Matcher script). You might also try the Midas average and Deltas as described in the book. I have added the 2nd, 3rd and 4th multiples of Delta.
The advantage is that there is no curve fitting. You still need to select a starting point for Midas or the topfinder bottomfinder (TB_F)
or the VWAP.
