class SelectionData():
#3. Update the constructor to accept a history array
def __init__(self,history):
self.slow = RSI(200)
self.fast = ExponentialMovingAverage(50)
#4. Loop over the history data and update the indicators
for bar in history.itertuples():
self.fast.Update(bar.Index[1], bar.close)
self.slow.Update(bar.Index[1], bar.close)
def is_ready(self):
return self.slow.IsReady and self.fast.IsReady
def update(self, time, price):

Hi Carsten,
Instead of RSI, we need to use RelativeStrengthIndex when creating indicators not tied to the QCAlgorithm class. For reference, please see the table of indicators.
