Create a strategy based on built-in indicators

I can create strategy using built-in methods, like sma or crossover.
But can I create strategy which is using built-in indicator? Some like that:

obv = Indicators.OBV() // Trying to use built-in OBV indicator
obv_sma = sma(obv)

if (crossover(obv, obv_sma)) {
   strategy.entry("OBV is high", strategy.long)
}

You can use "source input" feature, and select OBV in properties after adding it to chart.

obv = input(close, type=source) instead of obv = Indicators.OBV()
