Using ParabolicSAR inside strategy
-
Good morning,
I'm having difficulty implementing the ParabolicSAR in my strategy. I believe I've done the params and initialization correctly (not for sure, though), but I'm not sure how to add the conditions in. Am I supposed to build the calculations and use a variable for the condition? Or is that done inside backtrader? I want to include a psar condition inside the buy/sell conditions.Params:
('period', 2), # psar period ('start' in pine) ('af', 0.005), #psar af ('increment' in pine) ('afmax', 1), #psar afmax ('maximum' in pine)
init:
self.psar = bt.indicators.ParabolicSAR( period = self.p.period,# Period plot = False, af = self.p.af, afmax = self.p.afmax, )
I am new, thank you for your patience.

I have searched google and backtrader references with no luck. I may just need a point in the right direction.
