porting other talib functions?

[hems]

Hello, thanks for this great project!

I'm wondering were did you port the code from ? And how would you suggest adding more indicators?

Would be nice to port more functions from talib soure code in a reliable way

[hems]

i found more indicators implemented in python here this might be useful

Hi @hems :) Would you be willing to implement some of them?

[hems]

@csupnig surely i would, i'm just not sure which one would be next and if i'm entirely able to test it myself, i'm still understanding all this ta jazz.

i was wondering where did you port it from and how did you check if the results where correct, etcs.. any tips?

[csupnig]

I mostly looked them up on this website:
http://stockcharts.com/school/doku.php?id=chart_school:technical_indicators:moving_average_convergence_divergence_macd
or
http://stockcharts.com/school/doku.php?st=ema&id=chart_school:technical_indicators:moving_averages

They have a pretty good description and in some cases even excel sheets with examples.

I guess the next ones would be the ones you need ;)

@hems did you already have ideas for new indicators?

[hems]

@csupnig turns out after all this time i'm just working with RSI, MACD, SMA and EMA and price action! Are you in missing any indicators here?

Would be sweet to get a complete version of talib running natively on node but porting one by one by hand sounds like a very long job

[csupnig]

👍 I also only used those ones but as you said, it would be nice to have a full node port. It is a heap of work though.
