QUANTCONNECT COMMUNITY
I am having a hard time figuring out how to use the history function to warm up my SMA indicator. Is there an example that shows how to warm up an indicator with historical consolidated data? I am currently able to call the History function. But I am having trouble consolidating the 1m history data into hour data for my SMA indicator.
I've attached a backtest.
Thx for the help.

Hi Dean,
First, since we are on a minute resolution, we should register the SMA as an indicator. This means, instead of using self.SMA, we should use SimpleMovingAverage(10) and register the indicator using self.RegisterIndicator("EURUSD", self.SmaHigh, Resolution.Hour). Then, to warm up this indicator, we can use self.SetWarmup(10, Resolution.Hour). I’ve also made a few additional adjustments to the code. Please see the attached backtest for reference.
Best,
Shile Wen
