SmartQuant Discussion

Dear Sir/Miss:
I just imported 30minutes' data ,which just have two columns,one is datetime and the other is close price,into openquant.I can import it,but I can't get its chart.
I got another question.I can't understand when should I use OnBar or OnBar before and so on.
Are there more documents or examples to show it?
I will appriciate it if you can give me more help.
sincerely

Hi, usually bars should have OHLC values, basically by definition of a bar. I am not sure you can plot bars that have only close price, though I have to talk to our developers.

On your second point, have you looked through "Getting Started" guides?

Regards,
Anton

Dear Dr. Anton Fokin:
Thank you for your advise!
I think I should read all document again.
I find it is easy to import data into Openquant,and I'd like it,which is better than many other softwares.
Here is another question:
How many times I can calculate a indicator ?
Can I exchange indicator bars to timeserises?
Here is an example:
I use RSI to calculate a serise data and get RSIA,can I use SMA to calculate RSIA,or other indicator.
I fell sorry if my question is too easy to waste your precious time.
sincerely.

Yes, you can use Indicator as Input series of another indicator (). This way you can calculate RSI(SMA) and so on, check RSI constructors in API references
