First time here so any and all help is welcome :)

1) When trying to use VWAP function in this algo I get the following error: "Runtime Error: NotSupportedException : VolumeWeightedAveragePriceIndicator does not support Update(DateTime, decimal) method overload. Use Update(TradeBar) instead." but can't figure out how to fix it.

2) How would I add a candlestick pattern such as the Doji following the same format as other indicators.

 

Thanks in advance!!
