How can I inherit params from a parent class and append on the child class?
I have tried the code below, but received an error.

class Parent(bt.Strategy):
params = {
'p1': '',
'p2': '',
}

class Child(Parent):
params = Parent.params
params.update({
'p3': '',
'p4': '',
})

would be nice to have the error posted also.

params.update({

No need to update the params dict. The parameters from the base classes are fused automagically by metaclass during the instantiation. You may take a look at the following post as well: https://community.backtrader.com/topic/2379/difference-between-params-and-p/2
