Williams Fractals with Breaks

11 may 2022

This is a Bill Williams fractal indicator with breaks.

I was turned onto fractals and the importance of their breaks by ChaosTrader63.

I know several version of this indicator have been done.

I chose this as a first project because of it's simplicity , but also because of the poor code quality of some other versions I looked at.

This is the first draft that successfully met my three criteria:

* Must identify all fractals, including simultaneous up/down fractals.
* Must identify fractal breaks with a clear indicator.
* Must provide information on how many fractals

For the first bullet, I wanted to provide a more concise modern version than the boolean logic composition I was seeing in other examples.

The later two required tracking the past which was not present in the other versions I looked at.

Code here can be improved for more uses and better integration, but it is functional and elegant enough to use.

Thanks for checking it out.
