Is it possible to modify the definitions of "BodyLong", "BodyShort", etc. in python?

I'm not familiar with C, how should I define "long" or "short" when using it in python？

@mrjbq7
example:
/real body is long when it is longer than twice the average of the real bodies of the previous 10 candles/
{ TA_BodyLong, TA_RangeType_RealBody, 10, 2.0 },
How to implement such a setting in python?

Do you have an example in C that is what you're hoping to have work?

[mrjbq7]

I assume what you're looking for is TA_SetCandleSettings...

And this is how you'd do it in python:

import talib._ta_lib

talib._ta_lib._ta_set_candle_settings(settingtype, rangetype, avgperiod, factor)

Thank you, this is exactly what I need
