Coming from Python

A real import, the ideas side by side, and the names that translate.

This is a real run of the importer on a small Python script. The result compiles. 5 lines were read: 4 carried over exactly, 1 were adapted and 0 came back as decisions for you.

What you paste · Python · pandas-ta
import pandas_ta as ta
df["fast"] = ta.ema(df["close"], length=20)
df["slow"] = ta.ema(df["close"], length=50)
df["rsi"] = ta.rsi(df["close"], length=14)
df["long"] = (df["fast"] > df["slow"]) & (df["rsi"] < 70)

How the ideas translate

In PythonIn AlgoBarsX
df["fast"] = ta.ema(df["close"], length=20)fast = ema(close, 20)
ta.rsi(df["close"], length=14)rsi(close, 14)
(a > b) & (c < 70)a > b and c < 70
a column named rsirenamed to rsi_value, so it does not hide the function
df["close"].shift(1)close[1]
df["high"].rolling(20).max()highest(high, 20). Rolling calculations come back as a decision, so you pick the function.
Tip. A data-frame script has no orders in it, so it comes back as an indicator. Add when rules to turn it into a strategy.

Read every import before you run it. Compare the plain-English description with what your original did, settle each decision, and backtest before you deploy.
