IndicatorInfo

public IndicatorInfo(String name,
                     String title,
                     String groupName,
                     boolean overChart,

                     boolean unstablePeriod,
                     boolean candlesticks,
                     int numberOfInputs,
                     int numberOfOptionalInputs,
                     int numberOfOutputs)

Creates IndicatorInfo and fills all fields

Parameters:

name - name of the indicator. Should be something simple like SMA for Simple Moving Average or BBANDS for Bollinger Bands

title - title of the indicator

groupName - name of the indicator group

overChart - true if indicator should be drawn over candles/ticks

overVolumes - true if indicator should be drawn over volume information

unstablePeriod - true if indicator has unstable period (like EMA or SAR). This will add more candles in every call to stabilize function

candlesticks - true if indicator is Pattern Recognition function and should be shown over bars

numberOfInputs - number of inputs that user should provide

numberOfOptionalInputs - number of optional inputs

numberOfOutputs - number of outputs, that function returns
