You can install it via pip for static version

```

or development version

## API Usage

This library is to extend the library [ccxt](https://github.com/ccxt/ccxt) on
more powerful functions. So the supported exchanges are same as ccxt while
a few exchanges are extended with the following features. You just need to
import the exchange from libcryptomarket.

### Candles

```
from datetime import datetime
import libcryptomarket

poloniex = libcryptomarket.poloniex()
candles = libcryptomarket.fetch_candles(
symbol="ETH/BTC",
start_time=datetime(2018, 1, 1),
end_time=datetime(2018, 1, 30),
frequency="30m")
```

### Latest candles

```
from datetime import datetime
import libcryptomarket

poloniex = libcryptomarket.poloniex()
candles = libcryptomarket.fetch_latest_candles(
symbols=["ETH/BTC", "LTC/BTC"],
frequency="30m",
frequency_count=5)
```

### Supported exchanges

| Exchange | candles | latest_candles |
|---|---|---|
| Poloniex | v | v |
| Bitfinex | v | v |
| GDAX | v | v |


## Console Usage
