Hi,
I would like to add a SMA indicator in order to liquidate loosing trades. However, my code comes up with an error: 'MethodBinding' object has no attribute 'Updated' at Initialize in main.py:line 34.
Thanks for any help.

Hi Alex, you need to assign the SMA indicator to a variable then use the variable name.
self.SMA = self.SMA("EURUSD", 50, Resolution.Daily) self.SMA.Updated += self.SMAUpdated
