_Pandas Technical Analysis_ (**Pandas TA**) is an easy to use library that leverages the Pandas package with more than 140 Indicators and Utility functions and more than 60 TA Lib Candlestick Patterns. Many commonly used indicators are included, such as: _Candle Pattern_ (**cdl_pattern**), _Simple Moving Average_ (**sma**) _Moving Average Convergence Divergence_ (**macd**), _Hull Exponential Moving Average_ (**hma**), _Bollinger Bands_ (**bbands**), _On-Balance Volume_ (**obv**), _Aroon & Aroon Oscillator_ (**aroon**), _Squeeze_ (**squeeze**) and **_many more_**.
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Note:** _TA Lib_ must be installed to use **all** the Candlestick Patterns. ```pip install TA-Lib```. If _TA Lib_ is not installed, then only the builtin Candlestick Patterns will be available.

# **Features**
|
|
|
|
* Has 140+ indicators and utility functions.
|
|
* **BETA**: Pandas TA will run most of TA Lib's indicators, this includes TA Lib's 63 Chart Patterns.
|
|
* Indicators in Python are tightly correlated with the _de facto_ [TA Lib](https://github.com/mrjbq7/ta-lib) if they share common indicators.
|
|
* If TA Lib is also installed, TA Lib computations are **enabled** by default but can be disabled disabled per indicator by using the argument ```talib=False```.
|
|
* For example to disable TA Lib calculation for **stdev**: ```ta.stdev(df["close"], length=30, talib=False)```.
|
|
* **NEW** Include External Custom Indicators independent of the builtin Pandas TA indicators. For more information, see ```import_dir``` documentation under ```/pandas_ta/custom.py```.
|
|
* **NEW** Generate Sample Realizations if the [stochastic](https://github.com/crflynn/stochastic) package is installed. ```pip install stochastic```. See the [Stochastic Samples](#stochastic-samples) section below.
|
|
* Example Jupyter Notebook with **vectorbt** Portfolio Backtesting with Pandas TA's ```ta.tsignals``` method.
|
|
* Have the need for speed? By using the DataFrame _strategy_ method, you get **multiprocessing** for free! __Conditions permitting__.
|
|
* Easily add _prefixes_ or _suffixes_ or _both_ to columns names. Useful for Custom Chained Strategies.
|
|
* Example Jupyter Notebooks under the [examples](https://github.com/twopirllc/pandas-ta/tree/main/examples) directory, including how to create Custom Strategies using the new [__Strategy__ Class](https://github.com/twopirllc/pandas-ta/tree/main/examples/PandasTA_Strategy_Examples.ipynb)
|
|
* Potential Data Leaks: **dpo** and **ichimoku**. See indicator list below for details. Set ```lookahead=False``` to disable.

|
**Under Development**
|
|
===================
|
|
**Pandas TA** can also leverage other common or popular trading packages you may have installed in your environment. Current packages include: [**TA Lib**](https://mrjbq7.github.io/ta-lib/), [**Vector BT**](https://github.com/polakowo/vectorbt), [**YFinance**](https://github.com/ranaroussi/yfinance), [**Polygon API**](https://github.com/pssolanki111/polygon), [**Stochastic**](https://github.com//stochastic). Much of which is _experimental_ and likely to break until it stabilizes more.
|
|
* If **TA Lib** installed, existing indicators will _eventually_ get a **TA Lib** version.
|
|
* Easily download _ohlcv_ data from [yfinance](https://github.com/ranaroussi/yfinance) or [Polygon API](https://github.com/pssolanki111/polygon).
|
|
* See ```help(ta.ticker)```, ```help(ta.yf)```, ```help(ta.polygon_api)``` and examples below.

# **Quick Start**
|
|
```python
|
|
import pandas as pd
|
|
import pandas_ta as ta
|
|
|
|
df = pd.DataFrame() # Empty DataFrame
|
|
|
|
# Load data
|
|
df = pd.read_csv("path/to/symbol.csv", sep=",")
|
|
# OR if you have yfinance installed
|
|
df = df.ta.ticker("aapl")
|
|
|
|
# VWAP requires the DataFrame index to be a DatetimeIndex.
|
|
# Replace "datetime" with the appropriate column from your DataFrame
|
|
df.set_index(pd.DatetimeIndex(df["datetime"]), inplace=True)
|
|
|
|
# Calculate Returns and append to the df DataFrame
|
|
df.ta.log_return(cumulative=True, append=True)
|
|
df.ta.percent_return(cumulative=True, append=True)
|
|
|
|
# New Columns with results
|
|
df.columns
|
|
|
|
# Take a peek
|
|
df.tail()

**Some** indicator arguments have been reordered for consistency. Use ```help(ta.indicator_name)``` for more information or make a Pull Request to improve documentation.
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
import pandas as pd
|
|
import pandas_ta as ta
|
|
|
|
# Create a DataFrame so 'ta' can be used.
|
|
df = pd.DataFrame()
|
|
|
|
# Help about this, 'ta', extension
|
|
help(df.ta)
|
|
|
|
# List of all indicators
|
|
df.ta.indicators()
|
|
|
|
# Help about an indicator such as bbands
|
|
help(ta.bbands)
|
|
```

**Programming Conventions**
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
**Pandas TA** has three primary "styles" of processing Technical Indicators for your use case and/or requirements. They are: _Standard_, _DataFrame Extension_, and the _Pandas TA Strategy_. Each with increasing levels of abstraction for ease of use. As you become more familiar with **Pandas TA**, the simplicity and speed of using a _Pandas TA Strategy_ may become more apparent. Furthermore, you can create your own indicators through Chaining or Composition. Lastly, each indicator either returns a _Series_ or a _DataFrame_ in Uppercase Underscore format regardless of style.
|
|
|
|
<br/>
|
|
|
|
_Standard_
|
|
====================
|
|
You explicitly define the input columns and take care of the output.
|
|
|
|
* ```sma10 = ta.sma(df["Close"], length=10)```
|
|
* Returns a Series with name: ```SMA_10```
|
|
* ```donchiandf = ta.donchian(df["HIGH"], df["low"], lower_length=10, upper_length=15)```
|
|
* Returns a DataFrame named ```DC_10_15``` and column names: ```DCL_10_15, DCM_10_15, DCU_10_15```
|
|
* ```ema10_ohlc4 = ta.ema(ta.ohlc4(df["Open"], df["High"], df["Low"], df["Close"]), length=10)```
|
|
* Chaining indicators is possible but you have to be explicit.
|
|
* Since it returns a Series named ```EMA_10```. If needed, you may need to uniquely name it.

_Pandas TA DataFrame Extension_
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
Calling ```df.ta``` will automatically lowercase _OHLCVA_ to _ohlcva_: _open, high, low, close, volume_, _adj_close_. By default, ```df.ta``` will use the _ohlcva_ for the indicator arguments removing the need to specify input columns directly.
|
|
* ```sma10 = df.ta.sma(length=10)```
|
|
* Returns a Series with name: ```SMA_10```
|
|
* ```ema10_ohlc4 = df.ta.ema(close=df.ta.ohlc4(), length=10, suffix="OHLC4")```
|
|
* Returns a Series with name: ```EMA_10_OHLC4```
|
|
* Chaining Indicators _require_ specifying the input like: ```close=df.ta.ohlc4()```.
|
|
* ```donchiandf = df.ta.donchian(lower_length=10, upper_length=15)```
|
|
* Returns a DataFrame named ```DC_10_15``` and column names: ```DCL_10_15, DCM_10_15, DCU_10_15```
|
|
|
|
Same as the last three examples, but appending the results directly to the DataFrame ```df```.
|
|
* ```df.ta.sma(length=10, append=True)```
|
|
* Appends to ```df``` column name: ```SMA_10```.
|
|
* ```df.ta.ema(close=df.ta.ohlc4(append=True), length=10, suffix="OHLC4", append=True)```
|
|
* Chaining Indicators _require_ specifying the input like: ```close=df.ta.ohlc4()```.
|
|
* ```df.ta.donchian(lower_length=10, upper_length=15, append=True)```
|
|
* Appends to ```df``` with column names: ```DCL_10_15, DCM_10_15, DCU_10_15```.

_Pandas TA Strategy_
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
A **Pandas TA** Strategy is a named group of indicators to be run by the _strategy_ method. All Strategies use **mulitprocessing** _except_ when using the ```col_names``` parameter (see [below](#multiprocessing)). There are different types of _Strategies_ listed in the following section.
|
|
|
|
<br/>
|
|
|
|
### Here are the previous _Styles_ implemented using a Strategy Class:
|
|
```python
|
|
# (1) Create the Strategy
|
|
MyStrategy = ta.Strategy(
|
|
name="DCSMA10",
|
|
ta=[
|
|
{"kind": "ohlc4"},
|
|
{"kind": "sma", "length": 10},
|
|
{"kind": "donchian", "lower_length": 10, "upper_length": 15},
|
|
{"kind": "ema", "close": "OHLC4", "length": 10, "suffix": "OHLC4"},
|
|
]
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
# (2) Run the Strategy
|
|
df.ta.strategy(MyStrategy, **kwargs)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<br/><br/>
|
|
|
|
# **Pandas TA** _Strategies_
|
|
|
|
The _Strategy_ Class is a simple way to name and group your favorite TA Indicators by using a _Data Class_. **Pandas TA** comes with two prebuilt basic Strategies to help you get started: __AllStrategy__ and __CommonStrategy__. A _Strategy_ can be as simple as the __CommonStrategy__ or as complex as needed using Composition/Chaining.
|
|
|
|
* When using the _strategy_ method, **all** indicators will be automatically appended to the DataFrame ```df```.
|
|
* You are using a Chained Strategy when you have the output of one indicator as input into one or more indicators in the same _Strategy_.
|
|
* **Note:** Use the 'prefix' and/or 'suffix' keywords to distinguish the composed indicator from it's default Series.
|
|
|
|
See the [Pandas TA Strategy Examples Notebook](https://github.com/twopirllc/pandas-ta/blob/main/examples/PandasTA_Strategy_Examples.ipynb) for examples including _Indicator Composition/Chaining_.
|
|
|
|
Strategy Requirements
|
|
---------------------
|
|
- _name_: Some short memorable string. _Note_: Case-insensitive "All" is reserved.
|
|
- _ta_: A list of dicts containing keyword arguments to identify the indicator and the indicator's arguments
|
|
- **Note:** A Strategy will fail when consumed by Pandas TA if there is no ```{"kind": "indicator name"}``` attribute. _Remember_ to check your spelling.
|
|
|
|
Optional Parameters
|
|
-------------------
|
|
- _description_: A more detailed description of what the Strategy tries to capture. Default: None
|
|
- _created_: At datetime string of when it was created. Default: Automatically generated.
|

Types of Strategies
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
## _Builtin_
|
|
```python
|
|
# Running the Builtin CommonStrategy as mentioned above
|
|
df.ta.strategy(ta.CommonStrategy)
|
|
|
|
# The Default Strategy is the ta.AllStrategy. The following are equivalent:
|
|
df.ta.strategy()
|
|
df.ta.strategy("All")
|
|
df.ta.strategy(ta.AllStrategy)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## _Categorical_
|
|
```python
|
|
# List of indicator categories
|
|
df.ta.categories
|
|
|
|
# Running a Categorical Strategy only requires the Category name
|
|
df.ta.strategy("Momentum") # Default values for all Momentum indicators
|
|
df.ta.strategy("overlap", length=42) # Override all Overlap 'length' attributes
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## _Custom_
|
|
```python
|
|
# Create your own Custom Strategy
|
|
CustomStrategy = ta.Strategy(
|
|
name="Momo and Volatility",
|
|
description="SMA 50,200, BBANDS, RSI, MACD and Volume SMA 20",
|
|
ta=[
|
|
{"kind": "sma", "length": 50},
|
|
{"kind": "sma", "length": 200},
|
|
{"kind": "bbands", "length": 20},
|
|
{"kind": "rsi"},
|
|
{"kind": "macd", "fast": 8, "slow": 21},
|
|
{"kind": "sma", "close": "volume", "length": 20, "prefix": "VOLUME"},
|
|
]
|
|
)
|
|
# To run your "Custom Strategy"
|
|
df.ta.strategy(CustomStrategy)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<br/>
|
|
|
|
**Multiprocessing**
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
The **Pandas TA** _strategy_ method utilizes **multiprocessing** for bulk indicator processing of all Strategy types with **ONE EXCEPTION!** When using the ```col_names``` parameter to rename resultant column(s), the indicators in ```ta``` array will be ran in order.
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
# VWAP requires the DataFrame index to be a DatetimeIndex.
|
|
# * Replace "datetime" with the appropriate column from your DataFrame
|
|
df.set_index(pd.DatetimeIndex(df["datetime"]), inplace=True)
|
|
|
|
# Runs and appends all indicators to the current DataFrame by default
|
|
# The resultant DataFrame will be large.
|
|
df.ta.strategy()
|
|
# Or the string "all"
|
|
df.ta.strategy("all")
|
|
# Or the ta.AllStrategy
|
|
df.ta.strategy(ta.AllStrategy)
|
|
|
|
# Use verbose if you want to make sure it is running.
|
|
df.ta.strategy(verbose=True)
|
|
|
|
# Use timed if you want to see how long it takes to run.
|
|
df.ta.strategy(timed=True)
|
|
|
|
# Choose the number of cores to use. Default is all available cores.
|
|
# For no multiprocessing, set this value to 0.
|
|
df.ta.cores = 4
|
|
|
|
# Maybe you do not want certain indicators.
|
|
# Just exclude (a list of) them.
|
|
df.ta.strategy(exclude=["bop", "mom", "percent_return", "wcp", "pvi"], verbose=True)
|
|
|
|
# Perhaps you want to use different values for indicators.
|
|
# This will run ALL indicators that have fast or slow as parameters.
|
|
# Check your results and exclude as necessary.
|
|
df.ta.strategy(fast=10, slow=50, verbose=True)
|
|
|
|
# Sanity check. Make sure all the columns are there
|
|
df.columns
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<br/>
|
|
|
|
## Custom Strategy without Multiprocessing
|
|
**Remember** These will not be utilizing **multiprocessing**
|
|
```python
|
|
NonMPStrategy = ta.Strategy(
|
|
name="EMAs, BBs, and MACD",
|
|
description="Non Multiprocessing Strategy by rename Columns",
|
|
ta=[
|
|
{"kind": "ema", "length": 8},
|
|
{"kind": "ema", "length": 21},
|
|
{"kind": "bbands", "length": 20, "col_names": ("BBL", "BBM", "BBU")},
|
|
{"kind": "macd", "fast": 8, "slow": 21, "col_names": ("MACD", "MACD_H", "MACD_S")}
|
|
]
|
|
)
|
|
# Run it
|
|
df.ta.strategy(NonMPStrategy)
|

|
|
|
|
# Set the number of cores to 0 for no multiprocessing.
|
|

|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## **datetime_ordered**

print(prehl2.name) # "pre_HL2"
|
|
|
|
# Applying a suffix to the name of an indicator.
|
|

# **Backtesting**
|
|
## Vector BT
|
|
For **easier** integration with **vectorbt**'s Portfolio ```from_signals``` method, the ```ta.trend_return``` method has been replaced with ```ta.tsignals``` method to simplify the generation of trading signals. For a comprehensive example, see the example Jupyter Notebook [VectorBT Backtest with Pandas TA](https://github.com/twopirllc/pandas-ta/blob/main/examples/VectorBT_Backtest_with_Pandas_TA.ipynb) in the examples directory.
|
|
* See the [**vectorbt**](https://polakowo.io/vectorbt/) website more options and examples.
|
|
|
|
<br/>
|
|
|
|
### Brief example
|
|
```python
|
|
import pandas as pd
|
|
import pandas_ta as ta
|
|
import vectorbt as vbt
|
|
|
|
df = pd.DataFrame().ta.ticker("AAPL") # requires 'yfinance' installed
|
|
|
|
# Create the "Golden Cross"
|
|
df["GC"] = df.ta.sma(50, append=True) > df.ta.sma(200, append=True)
|
|
|
|
# Create boolean Signals(TS_Entries, TS_Exits) for vectorbt
|
|
golden = df.ta.tsignals(df.GC, asbool=True, append=True)
|
|
|
|
# Sanity Check (Ensure data exists)
|
|
print(df)
|
|
|
|
# Create the Signals Portfolio
|
|
pf = vbt.Portfolio.from_signals(df.close, entries=golden.TS_Entries, exits=golden.TS_Exits, freq="D", init_cash=100_000, fees=0.0025, slippage=0.0025)
|
|
|
|
# Print Portfolio Stats and Return Stats
|
|
print(pf.stats())
|
|
print(pf.returns_stats())
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<br/>
|
|
|
|
# **Performance Metrics** _BETA_
|
|
_Performance Metrics_ are a **new** addition to the package and consequentially are likely unreliable. **Use at your own risk.** These metrics return a _float_ and are _not_ part of the _DataFrame_ Extension. They are called the Standard way. For Example:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
import pandas_ta as ta
|
|
result = ta.cagr(df.close)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Available Metrics
|
|
* _Compounded Annual Growth Rate_: **cagr**
|
|
* _Calmar Ratio_: **calmar_ratio**
|
|
* _Downside Deviation_: **downside_deviation**
|
|
* _Jensen's Alpha_: **jensens_alpha**
|
|
* _Log Max Drawdown_: **log_max_drawdown**
|
|
* _Max Drawdown_: **max_drawdown**
|
|
* _Pure Profit Score_: **pure_profit_score**
|
|
* _Sharpe Ratio_: **sharpe_ratio**
|
|
* _Sortino Ratio_: **sortino_ratio**
|
|
* _Volatility_: **volatility**
|
|
|
|

|
# **Stochastic Samples** _BETA_
|
|
Pandas TA can utilize the [stochastic](https://github.com/crflynn/stochastic) package (```pip install stochastic```) to Generate Sample Processes. For arguments and features, see ```help(ta.sample)```
|
|
|
|
In short, when you create a Stochastic Sample,
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
# Returns a Sample Realization Object
|
|
sp = ta.sample() # Sample Process Object
|
|
print(sp)
|
|
|
|
# List of Object properties and methods
|
|
print(", ".join([x for x in dir(sp) if not x.startswith('_')]))
|
|
|
|
print(sp.np) # Return process as Numpy ndarray
|
|
print(sp.df) # Return process as Pandas DataFrame
|
|
|
|
# List of available processes
|
|
print(sp.processes)
|
|
# Returns type of process used
|
|
print(sp.process)
|
|
|
|
# List of available noises
|
|
print(sp.noises)
|
|
# Returns type of noise used
|
|
print(sp.noise)
|
|
|
|
# See the help for more options and examples
|
|
help(ta.sample)
|
|
```

# **Changes**
|
|
## **General**
|
|
* A __Strategy__ Class to help name and group your favorite indicators.
|
|
* If a **TA Lib** is already installed, Pandas TA will run TA Lib's version. (**BETA**)
|
|
* Some indicators have had their ```mamode``` _kwarg_ updated with more _moving average_ choices with the **Moving Average Utility** function ```ta.ma()```. For simplicity, all _choices_ are single source _moving averages_. This is primarily an internal utility used by indicators that have a ```mamode``` _kwarg_. This includes indicators: _accbands_, _amat_, _aobv_, _atr_, _bbands_, _bias_, _efi_, _hilo_, _kc_, _natr_, _qqe_, _rvi_, and _thermo_; the default ```mamode``` parameters have not changed. However, ```ta.ma()``` can be used by the user as well if needed. For more information: ```help(ta.ma)```
|
|
* **Moving Average Choices**: dema, ema, fwma, hma, linreg, midpoint, pwma, rma, sinwma, sma, swma, t3, tema, trima, vidya, wma, zlma.
|
|
* An _experimental_ and independent __Watchlist__ Class located in the [Examples](https://github.com/twopirllc/pandas-ta/tree/main/examples/watchlist.py) Directory that can be used in conjunction with the new __Strategy__ Class.
|
|
* _Linear Regression_ (**linear_regression**) is a new utility method for Simple Linear Regression using _Numpy_ or _Scikit Learn_'s implementation.
|
|
* Added utility/convience function, ```to_utc```, to convert the DataFrame index to UTC. See: ```help(ta.to_utc)``` **Now** as a Pandas TA DataFrame Property to easily convert the DataFrame index to UTC.
|
|
|
|
<br />
|
|
|
|
## **Breaking / Depreciated Indicators**
|
|
* _Arnaud Legoux Moving Average_ (**alma**) Updated accuracy and speed with new default ```length=9``` and argument ```distribution_offset``` renamed to ```dist_offset```. See ```help(ta.alma)```.
|
|
* _Trend Return_ (**trend_return**) has been removed and replaced with **tsignals**. When given a trend Series like ```close > sma(close, 50)``` it returns the Trend, Trade Entries and Trade Exits of that trend to make it compatible with [**vectorbt**](https://github.com/polakowo/vectorbt) by setting ```asbool=True``` to get boolean Trade Entries and Exits. See ```help(ta.tsignals)```
|
|
* _Volume Profile_ (**vp**) is no longer part of the DataFrame Extension since it does not return a Time Series.
|
|
* _Zero Lag Moving Average_ (**zlma**) now using available Moving Averages from ```ta.ma```. See ```help(ta.zlma)``` and ```help(ta.ma)```.
|
|
|
|
<br/>
|
|
|
|
## **New Indicators**
|
|
* _Bill Williams Alligator_ (**alligator**) attempts to identify if an asset is trending. See ```help(ta.alligator)```
|
|
* _Cross Signals_ (**xsignals**) was created by Kevin Johnson. It is a wrapper of Trade Signals that returns Trends, Trades, Entries and Exits. Cross Signals are commonly used for **bbands**, **rsi**, **zscore** crossing some value either above or below two values at different times. See ```help(ta.xsignals)```
|
|
* _Directional Movement_ (**dm**) developed by J. Welles Wilder in 1978 attempts to determine which direction the price of an asset is moving. See ```help(ta.dm)```
|
|
* _Jurik Moving Average_ (**jma**) attempts to eliminate noise to see the "true" underlying activity. See: ```help(ta.jma)```
|
|
* _Smoothed Moving Average_ (**smma**) can be used to confirm trends and define areas of support and resistance. See: ```help(ta.smma)```
|
|
* _Fast Stochastic Oscillator_ (**stochf**) is related to **stoch** but is less rarely used since it is more volatile. See: ```help(ta.stochf)```
|
|
* _Squeeze Pro_ (**squeeze_pro**) is an extended version of "TTM Squeeze" from John Carter. See ```help(ta.squeeze_pro)```
|
|
* _Tom DeMark's Sequential_ (**td_seq**) attempts to identify a price point where an uptrend or a downtrend exhausts itself and reverses. Currently exlcuded from ```df.ta.strategy()``` for performance reasons. See ```help(ta.td_seq)```
|
|
* _Think or Swim Standard Deviation All_ (**tos_stdevall**) indicator which returns the standard deviation of data for the entire plot or for the interval of the last bars defined by the length parameter. See ```help(ta.tos_stdevall)```
|
|
* _Worden Brothers Time Segmented Value_ (**wb_tsv**) is an oscillator indicator that attempts to indentify money flow in a stock, similar to On Balance Volume (**obv**). See ```help(ta.wb_tsv)```
|
|
|
|
<br/>
|
|
|
|
## **Updated Indicators**
|
|
|
|
* _Average True Range_ (**atr**): The default ```mamode``` is now "**RMA**" and with the same ```mamode``` options as TradingView. See ```help(ta.atr)```.
|
|
* _Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average_ (**kama**): An ```mamode``` as been added with default "**SMA**" to properly boostrap **kama**. _Note_: Not all MAs are usable. See ```help(ta.kama)```.
|
|
* _Linear Regression_ (**linreg**): Checks **numpy**'s version to determine whether to utilize the ```as_strided``` method or the newer ```sliding_window_view``` method. This should resolve Issues with Google Colab and it's delayed dependency updates as well as TensorFlow's dependencies as discussed in Issues [#285](https://github.com/twopirllc/pandas-ta/issues/285) and [#329](https://github.com/twopirllc/pandas-ta/issues/329).
|
|
* _Moving Average Convergence Divergence_ (**macd**): New argument ```asmode``` enables AS version of MACD. Default is False. See ```help(ta.macd)```.
|
|
* _Standard Deviation_ (**stdev**): To use ```ddof``` argument, also set ```talib=False```. The ```ddof``` argument is not available if you have TA Lib installed in your environment. Same goes for **variance**. See ```help(ta.stdev)```.
|
|
* _Variance_ (**variance**): To use ```ddof``` argument, also set ```talib=False```. The ```ddof``` argument is not available if you have TA Lib installed in your environment. Same goes for **stdev**. See ```help(ta.variance)```.
|
|
* _Volume Profile_ (**vp**): Calculation improvements. See [Pull Request #320](https://github.com/twopirllc/pandas-ta/pull/320) See ```help(ta.vp)```.
