version 0.9-3

improvements

• A new function for pre-calculating the lookback-period has been implemented. It can be used as follows:

talib::lookback(
  FUN = talib::SMA,
  n   = 10,
  x   = talib::BTC
)

The function returns the minimum required lookback for calculating the indicator. Its use-case is customized control-flows for downstream wrappers and/or packages that declares dependency on {talib}.

• The T3-function now has the argument vfactor controls the smoothing weight of the T3-curve.

bug-fixes

• The stochastic_relative_strength_index-function were recursively calculating the indicator.
