i just wondering how to know whether an indicator has 3 parameters rather than 2?
as explain in example above, why RSI has 4 parameters?(interval, low, high, persistence)?
i have read 'talib' file inside core folder, but didnt get any clue how to determine involved parameter of an indicator.

Can somebody walk me through getting this running in gekko? I thought I had it but I get the classic child process has died error in terminal.

What I did was made a copy of custom.js in the strategies folder. and pasted the revised code from here into the original custom.js and tried running it in the UI.
