Hi Ju Joh,
IdentityDataConsolidator<T> takes a data type in its construction because it is a generic type. You can use BaseData as the type for your consolidator because most data in Lean, like TradeBars and QuoteBars, are BaseData types.
In python, we can declare our consolidator like this
self.consolidator = IdentityDataConsolidator[BaseData]()Ju Joh
Gotcha. Thank you!
