In order to save the data for an indicator, one can use a RollingWindow. A rolling window is an array of data that allows for reverse list access semantics.
# In Initialize, create the rolling windows
def Initialize(self):
# Creates an indicator and adds to a rolling window when it is updated
self.SMA("SPY", 5).Updated += self.SmaUpdated
self.smaWin = RollingWindow[IndicatorDataPoint](5)
# Adds updated values to rolling window
def SmaUpdated(self, sender, updated):
self.smaWin.Add(updated)In the code above, there is a RollingWindow that saves the last 5 SMA indicators. So when a 6th SMA indicator gets added, the 1st SMA added is now removed from the list. This window can be initialized to the size needed and consolidated calculations can be made by iterating through the object. If this does not suffice as a solution, it would be helpful to attach some sample code for guidance.

Thanks for your answer, Gurumeher!
Here is my code. It's not actually what i'm working with, but it represents my problem. Each day at 11:00 we refresh our universe, i.e. remove everything and add new symbols. We working with 15-min bars, not 1-min! And we need to load from history 140 of 15min bars and calculate SMA.

Hi Maxim,
You can use "PushThroughConsolidators" to send the historical price into the consolidators and warm-up the indicator. Please see the attached example
