japanese-candlestick 0.2.0

Japanese candlestick pattern

japanese-candlestick-pattern

Install

pip install japanese-candlestick

Usage

Assuming having a pandas DataFrame candles with the following columns:

• 'Open'
• 'High
• 'Low'
• 'Close'

One can compute the japanese candlestick pattern Engulfing as follow:

from patterns import Engulfing

# Instantiate the pattern, with the candles dataframe as arg
engulfing = Engulfing(candles)

# Perform pattern detection
output_df = engulfing.compute_pattern()

The pattern detection value (a bool) is stored in a column having the same name as the pattern (lower case). In above example, the results would be in output_df['engulfing'].

Available patterns

The patterns are computed based on the book 'Japanese Candlestick Charting Techniques', by Steve Nison.

The currently available patterns are the following:

• Doji
• DragonflyDoji
• Engulfing
• GraveswtoneDoji
• Hammer
• HangingMan
• Harami
• InvertedHammer
• LongleggedDoji
• ShootingStar
• ThreeWhiteSoldiers
• ThreeBlackCrows

They are all to be imported from patterns, and all with the same usage (and sometimes parameters), i.e.:

# First import
from patterns import Hammer
# Then instantiate
hammer = Hammer(candles)
# Finally compute detection
output_df = hammer.compute_pattern()
