Hi all,
Looking to start playing around with my first algo.
I want to use a stochastic oscillator in this.
My question is, are there code samples for various classes?

public Stochastic STO(Symbol symbol, int period, int kPeriod, int dPeriod, Resolution? resolution = null)I'm trying to learn this as well so I thought I would start by throwing the data into a chart. Its not complete but may be a good starting point. If you clone this there is a "Stochastics" plotterJared Broad

AddSecurity(SecurityType.Equity, _symbol, Resolution.Minute);toAddSecurity(SecurityType.Equity, _symbol, Resolution.Daily);and it came out much nicerJoel M.
Is there a Stochastic constructor for python? I saw the one for C#. I apologize. I am newbie to QuantConnect.

Hi Joel.
Welcome to QuantConnect. For information on how to construct indicators, check out the documentation section on indicators.
In the attached backtest, I demonstrate how to use the Stochastic Indicator, and I construct a "Trade Plot," which plots the indicator values. The algorithm buys the currency pair EUR/USD when the "fast" stochastic indicator crosses below 20, and the algorithm closes the position when the indicator value exceeds 80.
