`get_request_status`([verbose])	Reports abbreviated information about request status.

__init__(verbose=True)

Constructor

Parameters:

verboseBoolean, optional: If set to True, additional information will be printed during the loading of historical prices. The default value is True.

Returns:

The MkTreder object

get(symbol=[], sdate='2012-01-01', edate='today', calendar=None, output_format='frame', source=None, force=False, save=True, file_dir='outDir', file_format='csv', api_key=None, param=None, verbose=None)

Retrieves market data for a set of stock symbols.

Parameters:

symbolstr or list of str, optional

Stock symbols to be uploaded. The default is [].

sdatedate like, optional

The start date of historical time series. The default is “2012-01-01”.

edatedate like, optional

The end date of historical time series (must: sdate >= edate) The default is ‘today’.

calendarnumpy.busdaycalendar, optional

Exchange business day calendar. If set to None it will default to the NY stock exchange business calendar (provided by the azapy function NYSEgen). The default is None.

output_formatstr, optional

The function output format. It can be:

‘frame’ - pandas.DataFrame
‘dict’ - dict of pandas.DataFrame. The symbols are the keys.

The default is ‘frame’

sourcestr or dict, optional

If it is a str, then it represents the market data provider for all historical prices request. Possible values are: ‘yahoo’, ‘alphavantage’, ‘alphavantage_yahoo’, ‘eodhistoricaldata’, ‘eodhistoricaldata_yahoo’ and ‘marketstack’. If set to None it will default to ‘yahoo’.

It can be set to a dict containing specific instructions for each stock symbol. The dict keys are the symbols and the values are ‘dict’ instructions specific to each symbol. Valid keys for the instructions dict are the names of this function call variables except ‘sdate’, ‘edate’, ‘calendar’ and ‘output_format’. The actual set of stock symbols is given by the union of variable ‘symbol’ and the keys of the dict ‘source’. Missing values in the symbol instruction dict’s will be filled with the values of the function call variables. The values of the function call variables act as generic values to be used in absence of specific instructions in the ‘source’ dict. The default is None.

Example of dict ‘source’:

source = {‘AAPL’: {‘source’: ‘eodhistoricaldata, ‘verbose’: True}, ‘SPY’: {‘source’: ‘yahoo’, ‘force’: True}}

In this case there are 2 symbols that will be added (union) to the set of symbols defined by ‘symbol’ variable. For symbol ‘AAPL’ the provider source is eodhistoricaldata and the ‘verbose’ instruction is set to True. The rest of the instructions: ‘force’, ‘save’, ‘file_dir’, ‘file_format’, ‘api_key’ and ‘param’ are set to the values of the corresponding function call variables. Similar for symbol ‘SPY’. The instructions for the rest of the symbols that may be specified in the ‘symbol’ variable will be set according to the values of the function call variables.

forceBoolean, optional

True: will try to collect historical prices exclusive from the market data providers.

False: first it will try to load the historical prices from a local saved file. If such a file does not exist the market data provider will be accessed.

If the file exists but the saved historical data is too short then it will try to collect the missing values only from the market data provider. The default is False.

saveBoolean, optional

True: It will try to save the historical price collected from the providers to a local file.

False: No attempt to save the data is made.

The default is True.

file_dirstr, optional

Directory with (to save) historical market data. If it does not exists then it will be created. The default is “outDir”.

file_formatstr, optional

The saved file format for the historical prices. The following files formats are supported: csv, json and feather The default is ‘csv’.

api_keystr, optional

Provider API key (where is required). If set to None then the API key is set to the value of global environment variables

APLPHAVANTAGE_API_KEY for alphavantage,

EODHISTORICALDATA_API_KEY for eodhistoricaldata,

MARKETSTACK_API_KEY for marketstack.

The default is None.

paramdict, optional

Set of additional information to access the market data provider. At this point in time only accessing alphavantage provider requires an additional parameter specifying the maximum number of API (symbols) requested per minute. It varies with the level of access corresponding to the API key. The minimum value is 5 for a free key and starts at 75 for premium keys. This value is stored in max_req_per_min variable.

Example: param = {‘max_req_per_min’: 5}

This is also the default vale for alphavantage, if param is set to None. The default is None.

verboseBoolean, optional

If set True, the additional information will be printed during the loading of historical prices. If None it is ignored, otherwise it overwrites the value set by the constructor. The default value is None.

Returns:

`pandas.DataFrame` or ‘dict’ `pandas.DataFrame`Historical market data.: The output format is designated by the value of the input parameter output_format.

get_error_log()

Returns lists of missing historical observation dates per symbol

Returns:

`dict`The error-log.

If it is an empty dict then there are no missing dates in the

collected historical time series.

Otherwise, the keys of the dict are the symbols that have missing

dates. The values for these keys are also dict with the following

fields:

‘back’: a list of missing date at the tail of the time series
‘front’ : a list of missing data at the head of the time series
‘mid’ : a list of missing data in the middle of the time series

Fields with empty list of dates are omitted.

get_request_status(verbose=None)

Reports abbreviated information about request status.

verboseBoolean, optional: If set to True, additional information will be printed during the function execution. In set to ‘None’, it will be ignored, otherwise it will overwrite the value set by the constructor. The default value is None.

Returns:

`pandas.DataFrame`The status report.

The column names are the symbols for which the data was requested.

The rows contain the actual input parameters per symbol as well

as:

‘nrow’ : the length of historical time series.
‘sdate’ : first date in the time series.
‘edate’ : end date of the time series.
‘error’ : if there are missing data. If its value is ‘Yes’ then the actual list of missing date per symbol can be obtained by calling get_error_log.

sourcestr or dict, optional

If it is a str, then it represents the market data provider for all historical prices request. Possible values are: ‘yahoo’, ‘alphavantage’, ‘alphavantage_yahoo’, ‘eodhistoricaldata’, ‘eodhistoricaldata_yahoo’ and ‘marketstack’. If set to None it will default to ‘yahoo’.

It can be set to a dict containing specific instructions for each stock symbol. The dict keys are the symbols and the values are ‘dict’ instructions specific to each symbol. Valid keys for the instructions dict are the names of this function call variables except ‘sdate’, ‘edate’, ‘calendar’ and ‘output_format’. The actual set of stock symbols is given by the union of variable ‘symbol’ and the keys of the dict ‘source’. Missing values in the symbol instruction dict’s will be filled with the values of the function call variables. The values of the function call variables act as generic values to be used in absence of specific instructions in the ‘source’ dict. The default is None.

Example of dict ‘source’:

source = {‘AAPL’: {‘source’: ‘eodhistoricaldata, ‘verbose’: True}, ‘SPY’: {‘source’: ‘yahoo’, ‘force’: True}}

In this case there are 2 symbols that will be added (union) to the set of symbols defined by ‘symbol’ variable.
