Hello Jim, Do you mean the chart patterns from Bulkowskis encyclopedia (over 60 patterns)?
If you want to code them in AFL some have been done by Dmitiris Tsokakis (Hello Dimitris, I hope the fish are jumping into your boat)....from the AFL library. Formula name: Pattern Recognition Exploration Author/Uploader: Dimitris Tsokakis - tsokakis [at] oneway.gr Date/Time added: 2001-09-03 14:03:35 Origin: Keywords: Level: medium Flags: exploration DISCLAIMER: Most formulas present in AFL on-line library are submitted by the users and are provided here on an "as is" and "as available" basis. AmiBroker.com makes no representations or warranties of any kind to the contents or the operation of material presented here. We do not maintain nor provide technical support for 3rd party formulas. Download formula file | Delete formula Description: Paste the code in Automatic Analysis and Explore All Stocks for the last date of your data. In Results click twice a label , for example "a TR" and you will collect all ascending Triangles marked with an "1". This Exploration recognizes the following patterns: +Ascending Wedges "aW" +Descending Wedges "dW" + ascending Triangles "a TR" +descending Triangles "d TR" +ascending channel "a ll" +descending channel "d ll" +almost horizontal channel "ll" +Converging Support and Resistance +Diverging Support and Resistance +N/A, ie examples not belonging to any above category. You may decrease sensitivity, changing per=3; with another percentage higher than 3. For Indicator Builder paste the code in Comments It would be an interesting project to code all of the major patterns (if it hasn't been done already). There is also a formula there for identifying candle patterns by Top Gun Herman van den Bergen....<candle exploration> Converting candles to bar chart patterns would be another interesting project. I'll do both projects if I run out of things to do. I haven't tried either of the formulas....I just noticed them there the other day so passing it on to you.
