Hello,

So, The following algorithm is trying to trade based on following conditions:

Long: if the price breaks above the 20 SMA and slope of 200 SMA is positive

Sell: if the price breaks below the 20 SMA

The stop loss is set to 1%

Questions:

1. how can I eliminate the fee structure when I have rolling window?

2. how does the rolling window indicator data points affected my returns? I am only using the first two data points but if I change `self.smaWin = RollingWindow[IndicatorDataPoint](2)` to `self.smaWin = RollingWindow[IndicatorDataPoint](200)` the results are worse. Is it because it will first fill up the window with 200 points and then try to perform everything afterwards? Specifically, my slope will be performed after 200 hours instead of 2 hours?

3. I followed https://www.quantconnect.com/forum/discussion/4497/adding-a-sma-indicator/p1 where line 53, he is getting the price, but I get `

Runtime Error: AttributeError : 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'Price'
at OnData in main.py:line 71
:: price = self.window[0].Price
AttributeError : 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'Price'

4. The drawdown in Overview is Max drawdown?

Thanks
