openseries 0.1.19

Package for simple financial time series analysis.

OpenSeries

This is a project where we keep tools to perform timeseries analysis on a single asset or a group of assets.

To install:

pip install openseries

To construct an OpenTimeSeries object from a "raw" dictionary:

data = {'_id': '',
        'currency': 'SEK',
        'dates': ['2020-09-03',
                  '2020-09-04',
                  '2020-09-07',
                  '2020-09-08',
                  '2020-09-09'],
        'instrumentId': '',
        'local_ccy': True,
        'name': 'Timeseries',
        'values': [114.9965,
                   114.8355,
                   114.8694,
                   115.1131,
                   114.8643],
        'valuetype': 'Price(Close)'}

series =  = OpenTimeSeries(data)

Or to construct using the class method designed to get a NAV timeseries for a Captor Fund:

capirisc = 'SE0009807308'
bonds = OpenTimeSeries.from_open_nav(isin=capirisc)

And print its geometric annual return and volatility:

print(f'Return    : {bonds.geo_ret:.2%}\nVolatility: {bonds.vol:.2%}.')

To compare timeseries an OpenFrame is constructed like this:

basket = OpenFrame([series, bonds])

The helper methods to work with the time series can be chained like this:

basket.trunc_frame().value_nan_handle().to_cumret()

And a new portfolio timeseries can be constructed from an OpenFrame like this:

basket.weights = [0.6, 0.4]
portfolio = OpenTimeSeries.from_df(basket.make_portfolio('porfolio'))
basket.add_timeseries(portfolio)

Finally, plotting is simple. This will plot the timeseries in a browser window:

basket.plot_series(tick_fmt='.1%')

To make use of some of the tools available in the Pandas library the OpenTimeSeries and OpenFrame classes have an attribute tsdf which is a DataFrame constructed from the raw data in the lists dates and values.
