QUANTCONNECT COMMUNITY

I also tried searching in the API UI, and the search box didn't appear to return anything:

Hi Blake,
If you want to find specific algorithm examples uses some of these indicators, I recommend looking at the QuantConnect/Lean/Algorithms.Python page in GitHub found here and specifically at the IndicatorSuiteAlgorithm. This will provide you with a number of simple template algorithms with examples of how to use various features. Additionally, you can find detailed class information for indicators here.
