What is PyneCore?

PyneCore brings TradingView's Pine Script capabilities to Python through a revolutionary approach - it transforms regular Python code to behave like Pine Script through AST transformations, while maintaining the full power of the Python ecosystem.

Instead of creating another object-oriented wrapper or a new language, PyneCore modifies your Python code at import time, giving you the intuitive bar-by-bar execution model of Pine Script without leaving Python's rich environment.

Key Features

• Native Pine Script Semantics in Python: Write familiar Python code that runs with Pine Script's bar-by-bar execution model
• AST Transformation Magic: Your code is transformed at import time to implement Pine Script behavior
• High Performance: Zero mandatory external dependencies with highly optimized implementation
• Series & Persistent Variables: Full support for Pine Script's time series and state persistence
• Function Isolation: Each function call gets its own isolated persistent state
• NA Handling: Graceful handling of missing data with Pine Script's NA system
• Technical Analysis Library: Comprehensive set of Pine Script-compatible indicators and functions
• Strategy Backtesting: Pine Script compatible framework for developing and testing trading strategies

Quick Example

"""
@pyne
"""
from pynecore import Series
from pynecore.lib import script, close, ta, plot, color, input

@script.indicator(title="Bollinger Bands")
def main(
    length=input.int("Length", 20, minval=1),
    mult=input.float("Multiplier", 2.0, minval=0.1, step=0.1),
    src=input.source("Source", close)
):
    # Calculate Bollinger Bands
    basis = ta.sma(src, length)
    dev = mult * ta.stdev(src, length)

    upper = basis + dev
    lower = basis - dev

    # Output to chart
    plot(basis, "Basis", color=color.orange)
    plot(upper, "Upper", color=color.blue)
    plot(lower, "Lower", color=color.blue)

Innovative Concepts

PyneCore introduces several revolutionary concepts:

1. Magic Comment & Import Hook

Identify your scripts with a simple magic comment:

"""
@pyne
"""

This activates PyneCore's import hook system which intercepts Python imports and applies AST transformations to recognized scripts.

2. Series Variables

Track historical data across bars, just like in Pine Script:

from pynecore import Series

price: Series[float] = close
previous_price = price[1]  # Access previous bar's price

3. Persistent Variables

Maintain state between bars with simple type annotations:

from pynecore import Persistent

counter: Persistent[int] = 0
counter += 1  # Increments with each bar

4. Function Isolation

Each call to a function maintains its own isolated state:

def my_indicator(src, length):
    # Each call gets its own instance of sum
    sum: Persistent[float] = 0
    sum += src
    return sum / length

Installation

# Basic installation
pip install pynesys-pynecore

# With CLI tools (recommended)
pip install pynesys-pynecore[cli]

# With all features including data providers
pip install pynesys-pynecore[all]

Note for Windows users: PyneCore requires timezone data that is not included in Windows by default. The [cli] and [all] installations automatically include the tzdata package. If you're using the basic installation and encounter timezone errors, install it manually with pip install tzdata.

Getting Started

Create a Simple Script

1. Create a file with the @pyne annotation:

"""
@pyne
"""
from pynecore.lib import script, close, plot

@script.indicator("My First Indicator")
def main():
    # Calculate a simple moving average
    sma_value = (close + close[1] + close[2]) / 3

    # Plot the result
    plot(sma_value, "Simple Moving Average")

2. Run your script with the PyneCore CLI:

# First, download some price data
pyne data download ccxt --symbol "BYBIT:BTC/USDT:USDT"

# Then run your script on the data
pyne run my_script.py ccxt_BYBIT_BTC_USDT_USDT_1D.ohlcv

Working with Pine Script Files

PyneCore also supports running Pine Script files directly with automatic compilation:

# Run a Pine Script file directly (requires PyneSys API key)
pyne run my_indicator.pine ccxt_BYBIT_BTC_USDT_USDT_1D.ohlcv --api-key YOUR_API_KEY

# Or compile Pine Script to Python first
pyne compile my_indicator.pine --api-key YOUR_API_KEY

# Then run the compiled Python file
pyne run my_indicator.py ccxt_BYBIT_BTC_USDT_USDT_1D.ohlcv

Note: Pine Script compilation requires a PyneSys API key. Get yours at pynesys.io.

Broker Plugins (this fork)

This fork adds venue plugins under plugins/, editable-installed and auto-discovered through the pyne.plugin entry-point group:

Plugin	Entry points	What it does
DNSE — plugins/dnse	dnse (data) · dnse_broker (broker)	Vietnamese derivatives & stocks: OHLCV history + native STOP/OCO conditional orders on DNSE's OpenAPI, built on the vendored openapi-sdk 2.0.0. REST-only.

# historical / live data feed (no --from: it truncates the shared .ohlcv cache;
# the built-in -500-real-bars default is both safe and deep enough)
pyne run my_strategy.py dnse:VN30F1M@5

# live broker — places REAL orders (implies --live)
pyne run my_strategy.py dnse_broker:VN30F1M@5 --broker

Testing: pytest plugins/dnse/tests/ (unit + offline e2e against a fake venue that reproduces DNSE's measured quirks), plus a live-test suite — a session-independent venue-semantics gate and two staged live probes (no-fill place/amend/cancel/OCA cases and a fill matrix whose backtest mode doubles as the oracle). Procedures, safety rules and the measured venue facts: plugins/dnse/testing/live_test/README.md.

The vendored SDK, a mirror of DNSE's OpenAPI docs (docs/dnse-openapi-documentation/) with a sync/verify tool, and the error-handling plan (docs/plan/) live alongside the plugin.

Reference plugins — the DNSE plugin follows PyneSys's official broker-plugin examples, kept as workspace siblings for pattern reference: pynecore-plugin-bybit, pynecore-plugin-capitalcom, pynecore-plugin-ctrader.
