Least Squares Polynomial Fit Pattern Detection for Amibroker (AFL)

I found this indicator here it is written by E.M.Pottasch it attempts to find the best fitting polynomial to the selected point on the price chart. This formula requires a recent version of Amibroker as it uses the new matrix functions.

@admin

12 errors coming in this code….i am using ami 6.0

can you please fix this?

2. administrator

Looking at the formula it uses the new matrix functions. I believe they are only available in Amibroker 6.10 and newer.

3. chetan ninganiya

oohh..okay thanks @admin

4. crkumar

Nice concept.
Where to tie this in mind’s analysis framework.
Thanx.
