If you clone these repositories and run them on live data, you will quickly encounter the Fractal Problem.

What works on a 1-hour chart fails on a 5-minute chart. Elliott waves are self-similar. A "Wave 1" on a daily chart is actually a full 5-wave sequence on an hourly chart. Most GitHub algorithms struggle to differentiate between the "degree" (granularity) of a wave.

While new repos appear frequently, here are the types of established projects you should look for:
