out of curiosity, how close is this which I cobbled together based on my
(limited) understanding of the dense math?
Gain = Param("Gain",500,5,2000,5);
BP = C;
Pred = 0;
Velo = 0;
function Kalman ( BP, gain )
{
for ( i = 1; i < BarCount; i++ )
{
Dk[i] = BP[i] - Pred[i-1]; // Delta k
Smooth[i] = Pred[i-1] + DK[i] * sqrt( ( Gain / 10000 ) * 2 );
Velo[i] = Velo[i-1] + ( ( Gain / 10000 ) * Dk[i] );
Pred[i] = Smooth[i] + Velo[i];
kf[i] = Pred[i];
}
return kf ;
}

The .afl formulas for T3 that I can find are not Kalman style filters. The one
I created uses the AMA2 function built into AB.
There are many references to Kalman on the internet. For stock trading I chose
one dimension and linear combination of functions. A good place to start is
the Wikipedia article. Yes the math is a little dense, but some of the
articles have enough verbal description that you can sort it out - at least
that is how I did it.
