Hi All,
I am quite new to QuantConnect and Python, so this might be quite easy for you but I just could not figure it out myself.
Can anyone direct me to a place where I can find a full list of methods and attributes for all the objects? Maybe the answer is somewhere on this website but I might just missed it completely.
I tried the Docs Tab, but it does not have an explicit return type and the methods that are applicable to the type, and this gives me a lot of headache.
For example, I want to create a Simple Moving Average indicator and it is quite easy to know the input type for creating the object:
var sma = SMA(Symbol symbol, int period, Resolution resolution = null, Func`2[Data.IBaseData,Decimal] selector = null)
However, I have no idea what attributes and methods that are associated with this object.
If I want to access the value of the SMA, I would not have known to use SMA().Current.Value myself.
Cheers,
Terry

Sorry guys, I think I've found the docs.
It is just really hard to navigate to this doc and the it is written in C language and initially I could not get a hold of the syntax, but I think I am fine now.
I think it would be better if the entry to this doc can be placed in a more obvious place somewhere under the Docs Tab and have a python syntax version of it.
