+# Example: Using cascaded technical indicators
+
+This example demonstrates how to use cascaded technical indicators in a **NautilusTrader** strategy.
+
+The example shows how to set up and use two Exponential Moving Average (EMA) indicators in a cascaded manner,
+where the second indicator (EMA-20) is calculated using values from the first indicator (EMA-10),
+demonstrating proper initialization, updating, and accessing indicator values in a cascaded setup.
+
+**What this example demonstrates:**
+
+- Creating and configuring multiple technical indicators (EMAs)
+- Setting up a cascaded indicator relationship
+- Registering the primary indicator to receive bar data
+- Manually updating the cascaded indicator
+- Storing and accessing historical values for both indicators
+- Proper handling of indicator initialization in a cascaded setup
