I was looking for the same you are looking for. You can read the Feature
article in the Bonus Issue of TASC 1999, called "Modifying the parabolic
Stop and Reversal", by Dennis Meyers.
The author mentioned the shape, slope  and speed of the Sar was controlled
by three parameters:
the starting acceleration factor (AF), the increment that the AF can change
and the maximum AF. Meyers included an variable  that allows the Sar not tot
reverse unless penetrated by a  defined amount. He defined  this new
parameter as XO_INC for crossover increment, and he called it PARABXO.
Meyers did not give the formula for MS. Meyers has a website at:
http://www.meyersanalytics.com Perhaps you can find the formula there. When
you have the formula, please send it to me. I want to use it as an exit
system in the system tester.

Greetings, Jan Geenen
