Implement 2 strategies at the same time

[matei219]

I'm trying to add a new condition to the strategy in the guide, however I'm not getting the expected result. Can you help me indicate what I am doing wrong? I'm trying to combine SMA and RVOL at the same time. Thanks.

"""
Return simple moving average of values, at
each step taking into account n previous values.

return pd.Series(values).rolling(n).mean()

"""

avg_volume = np.convolve(volume, np.ones(window)/window, mode='valid')
rvol_values = volume[window-1:] / avg_volume
rvol_values = np.concatenate((np.full(window-1, np.nan), rvol_values))
return rvol_values

class SmaCross(Strategy):
n1 = 20
n2 = 50
threshold = 1.2

def init(self):
    close = self.data.Close
    self.sma1 = self.I(SMA, close, self.n1)
    self.sma2 = self.I(SMA, close, self.n2)
    # Precompute RVOL
    self.rvol = self.I(RVOL, self.data.Volume, 10)  # Adjust the window size as needed

def next(self):
    if crossover(self.sma1, self.sma2) and self.rvol[-1] > self.threshold:
        self.position.close()
        self.buy()
    elif crossover(self.sma2, self.sma1) and self.rvol[-1] > self.threshold:
        self.position.close()
        self.sell()

bt = Backtest(MSFT, SmaCross,
cash=10000, commission=.002,
exclusive_orders=True)

stats = bt.run()
print(stats)
