I noticed the 2006 discrepancy by accident, but I'll bet my left one that there many more. Discrepancies of only 2 pips are very difficult to spot visually. Hence my suggestion that we use Excel to...

My logic was to initially locate the first high and the first low, and then use whichever came first to begin calculating subsequent plots as early as possible.

I am not saying this is better....

Fat Tails,

Your PSAR looks good. I like the way you identify on the chart the exact level at which the SAR was triggered.

The two attached charts compare your PSAR with NinjaTrader's (large...

Fat Tails,

Thanks for checking. So we are back to 2 bugs in NT's Parabolic code.

Regarding bug #1 (raising or lowering the SAR), further investigation indicates it is an intermittent bug, which...

Fat Tails,

Referring to bug #2 (that we agreed was not a bug), Wilders's rule states ... "If short, never move the SAR for tomorrow below the previous days high or today's high ...".

Fat Tails,

I agree with your suggestion that the Parabolic should trigger on a penetration (instead of a touch) because, as you say, there are times that the Parabolic will equal previous high (or...

Fat Tail,

You are correct. Ninja's calculations are incorrect on the first example, but correct on the 2nd example.

Thanks for your input.

Fat Tails,

If you look at the 2nd chart carefully you will see that the plot marked with a black line has been lowered slightly. This is not correct. The previous plot should have been used. This...

Thanks for your reply and for confirming that the problem is with the Gain API, and not a restriction at Gain's server end. In other words, the problem is 100% due to a software...
