I am a python enthusiast (not expert for sure) and did some coding and backtesting
using downloaded data text files.
Very excited to find quantopian.com
Hope to read, learn and create some algorithms here.
I hope very soon data from Indian stock markets are also available on quanotpian.

I want to write 2 algorithms
First one is
--Long only
--buy on Breakout above 1.3*RangeOfLast(20days)+MaxOfLast(20days) #entry can be with StopLoss order of 10days validity
-- exit trailing stoploss of MinOfLast(10 days).
Second one is
-- Long only
-- buy if stock value is above PSAR # it think talib can be usefull but I need some documentation pointers
-- exit trailing stoploss of MinOfLast(10 days).
Any pointers will be appreciated.
