So, my algorithm default resolution is minute.
And it has a warm up for suppose 240 minutes
Now, I want to introduce a custom indicator like RSI with Daily resolution but in a custom class like SymbolData.
How can I do this with RSI populated from first day, so I have warm up of 14 days specially for the indicator (algo warm is different duration)
I used rolling window to store the information but not sure how exactly to warm the RSI indicator.
Thank you
Ray

Hi Ray,
To warm up the RSI indicator in the SymbolData class, we can make History call to gather the trailing 14 days of pricing data then manually warm up the indicator through its Update method. We can then setup a consolidator to pass our algorithm data at the daily resolution. This is all done in the SymbolData constructor.

def __init__(self, symbol, algorithm, rsi_length):
self.symbol = symbol
self.algorithm = algorithm
self.rsi = RelativeStrengthIndex(rsi_length, MovingAverageType.Simple)
# Warm up RSI
history = algorithm.History(symbol, rsi_length, Resolution.Daily).loc[symbol]
for idx, row in history.iterrows():
self.rsi.Update(idx, row.close)
# Setup daily indicator consolidator
self.consolidator = TradeBarConsolidator(timedelta(1))
self.consolidator.DataConsolidated += self.CustomDailyHandler
algorithm.SubscriptionManager.AddConsolidator(self.symbol, self.consolidator)Here is what the CustomDailyHandler method looks like:
def CustomDailyHandler(self, sender, consolidated):
self.rsi.Update(consolidated.Time, consolidated.Close)To remove the consolidator, we add a helper method, `dispose`.
def dispose(self):
self.algorithm.SubscriptionManager.RemoveConsolidator(self.symbol, self.consolidator)The last step is to ensure we only create SymbolData objects and consolidators for securities in our universe. To do so, we define the OnSecuritiesChanged method in our alpha model as
def OnSecuritiesChanged(self, algorithm, changes):
for added in changes.AddedSecurities:
self.symbol_data_by_symbol[added.Symbol] = SymbolData(added.Symbol, algorithm, self.rsi_length)
for removed in changes.RemovedSecurities:
symbol_data = self.symbol_data_by_symbol.pop(removed.Symbol, None)
if symbol_data:
symbol_data.dispose()See the attached backtest for a full example algorithm. To learn more, I recommend reviewing our documentation on consolidating data.
Best,
