Hi All,
I wish I didn't have to ask as I have seen multiple similar python examples in other posts but i still cant seem to apply it to my own code.
I have a custom class containing multiple indicators. At OnData, I can only seem to access the current indicator values, e.g. stockDatas[0].CCI.Current. What I would like to do is access the previous CCI value for each security too.
To do this I believe I need a rolling window. Below what I am trying to do is make a rolling window containing the stockDatas list. What I cant seem to figure out, is that the rolling window in the below code isnt functioning properly because calling in the debugger:
stockDatas[0].STC_RW[0].CCI.Current.Value and stockDatas[0].STC_RW[1].CCI.Current.Value, yeilds the same value consistently.
Edit:
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

The algorithm was trying to add a class into the rolling window so all we needed was to add the specific CCI value. I created a rolling window for CCI and ATR and printed out the CCI rolling window values after the window was ready.
Before: stockDatas[i].STC_RW.Add(stockDatas[i])
After: stockDatas[i].CCI_RW.Add(stockDatas[i].CCI.Current.Value);

Hi Gurumeher, thank you for getting back to me. I was hoping to add the class to the rolling window. So I could look back previous instances of it.
However, your method does achieve exaclty what I need. Thank you I appreciate it!
