Hi Community,

I am trying to find documentation on talib.BBANDS, specifically, the argument "mattype" which takes in SMA by default when set to 0 as per the doc string. I tested that it takes [0,8] as valid inputs but I am trying to figure out what each integer refers to (EMA etc.). Any inputs will be helpful. Thank you!
