I am a C# developer that is brand new to this Quantconnect system. I am looking at these Alpha Models, i.e. EmaCrossAlphaModel. My question is, how do you get data out of these models?
I see in the initialization you do something like this:
AddAlpha(new EmaCrossAlphaModel(50, 200, Resolution.Minute));
But where do I access the data that comes from the Update? Where do I get the Insights? Where do I get the signal?
Do I get it from the Slice in the OnData method?
I'm confused.
Thanks, in advance
