I'm trying to recreate indicators like in the tutorials, so that I don't have to make individual consolidators for a list of symbols, but I'm running into a recursion error.
…
# create a 15 day exponential moving average
self.fast = self.EMA(self.symbol, 15, Resolution.Daily);
# create a 30 day exponential moving average
self.slow = self.EMA(self.symbol, 30, Resolution.Daily);
…
if self.fast > self.slow: < ------- This is where error is hitting
Runtime Error: RecursionError : maximum recursion depth exceeded while calling a Python object
at OnData
if self.fast.Current.Value > self.slow.Current.Value * Decimal(1 + tolerance):
===
at Python.Runtime.PyObject.Invoke(PyTuple args in main.py:line 55
RecursionError : maximum recursion depth exceeded while calling a Python object (Open Stacktrace)
Is something like this format still possible to make work?

Hi Tomes,
please take out “Decimal”, it should work (as to why, I am not familiar enough with Decimal function to answer that)
also you might need to change self.Time.Date to self.Time.date()
Zicai Feng
oh, just noticed some of those logics are from the C# land, that explains…
yeah no need to use “Decimal” in python

Zicai Feng,
Try this "EMA Cross Algorithm"

The same rebalanced daily.

Thanks y'all. Removing Decimal worked. I'll make sure I'm not taking any logic from C# anymore. I appreciate the EMA crossover algo to look at too.
