An algorithm for Elliott Waves pattern detection

The examination of the Elliott Wave theory is the main motivation of this contribution. All of the fundamental features of an proper Elliott Wave pattern (EW pattern) are reviewed and explained. Based on this knowledge, an algorithm for detection of these patterns is designed, developed and tested....
