I whipped together this script after having listened to Hyperwave with Sawcruhteez and Tyler Jenks in the evening on July 3, 2019. They felt that the existing Parabolic SAR was not doing its calculations properly, and they hoped that someone might help them correct this. So I tried my hand at it, learning Pine as I went. I don't know if this script works properly (so don't use it!), but it does show a trend change on the weekly this week as it apparently should. I'm making the script public so that Sawcruhteez and Tyler Jenks can take a look at it.

I've added the short title "Casey's SAR" per Nakitxu's suggestion via Tone Vays' "Financial Sanity (TI Talk)" channel on Telegram

Changed name to include Lucid branding, per request from Sawcruhteez
I plan to have a copy of this open-source script on github so that people can submit pull requests to improve upon it.

This evening Sawcruhteez and I met on google hangout and discussed which version to go with, the algorithm used by version 0.2 or that used by version 0.3. It appears that in Wilder's book, both algorithms are used. The former is used in the worksheet, and the latter is used in the first illustration (fig 2.1). Well, we're going with the worksheet, so I'll stick with version 0.2.
Sawcruhteez asked I'd like to have my SAR branded with the name of his investment strategies firm, Lucid Investment Strategies, and I feel honored to have been asked and to accept. So I'm changing the name of the SAR from "Casey's SAR" to "Lucid SAR" upon his request. I'm glad to be giving back to the bitcoin community and to those at Lucid who have helped me so much to get my sea legs with their videos on bitcoin price movements.

In the wings I have a version 0.3 for the SAR script, where the algorithm creates a SAR that only depends on the EP from the previous candle and not on the EP of the current candle itself. This seems to be the approach in the original paper. Once I get word that this is preferable, I plan to go ahead and switch to version 0.3.

I also added "overlay" per Nakitxu's suggestion, so that the indicator appears in the main pane immediately when added

The script has changed to version 0.2. I have made one correction. It now satisfies the requirement that the SAR for period n be lower (higher) than the lows (highs) for the candles of periods (n-1) and (n-2) in an uptrend (downtrend, accordingly) per Wilder's book. Note that the weekly chart trend for this week no longer changes from uptrend to downtrend as a result.
