LUCID SAR is an interesting technical indicator. I'm having trouble converting this to Python code. So a "Python friendly" version was rewritten literally. Because some basic functions and structures have been replaced. The performance can be 100% consistent with LUCID SAR.
Function
Mr. Bowman wrote this script after having listened to Hyperwave with Sawcruhteez and Tyler Jenks of Lucid Mr. Bowmannvestments Strategies LLC on July 3, 2019. They felt that the existing built-in Parabolic SAR indicator was not doing its calculations properly, and they hoped that someone might help them correct this. So Mr. Bowman tried his hand at it,adding the rule regarding the SAR not advancing beyond the high (low) of the prior two candles during an uptrend (downtrend), but the core script is as it was.
I use large sized cross with red color for downtrend, with green color for uptrend, so that when I overlapped original work from Mr. Bowman, they can be 100% matched, which provided a validation process for this re-writing work. Enjoy!
Remarks
Feedbacks are appreciated. Python version Lucid SAR performance discussion is desired.
cool. You wrote it in v4. nice. And its a function... also nice. Very cool. I have a SAR script that I made up. It does this very same thing where you can adapt all the inputs to different market conditions. If I find any meaning differences between this and the one I wrote that I think are helpful I'll let you know. But, I think they are the same thing written different ways.

@kurtsmock, yeah, pine v4 is more similar to python grammar :)
