Really struggling to find full Python documentation by KCG

| Reward Discussion

Hello all, I've spent quite a few days trying to find python resources for QuantConnect. I already have experience with Python as a language, But as I have gone through the main QuantConnect documentation. I am having trouble finding a complete list of all possible Python commands. (Especially relating to indicators.)

Does QuantConnect have something similar? I't would make figuring out the syntax for all the indicators much easier. (The current documentation I see shows me how to make the indicators, but Is not clear on how to retrieve values from them. )

I hope I am missing something. Thanks!

We have been working on tutorials that we teach new (and old) members the QuantConnect API in both C# and Python.

LEAN has class documentation here; and can search for the indicator names to get the properties.

Thank you! I believe this documentation is for C# only. But I think I can work with this.

Thanks

When you are on the documentation page, you can select python as the laguage and the documentation will show the python version.
