Installation

pip install pypsx

Quick Start

Basic Usage - Get Stock Information

import pypsx

# Create a ticker object for any stock symbol
ticker = pypsx.PSXTicker("OGDC")  # or use pypsx.Ticker("OGDC")

# Get company information
info = ticker.info
print(f"Company: {info.get('Sector')}")
print(f"Current Price: {info.get('Current')}")

# Get comprehensive snapshot data (OHLCV, bid/ask, circuit breaker, ranges, ratios, etc.)
snapshot = ticker.snapshot
print(f"Open: {snapshot.get('REG', {}).get('Open')}")
print(f"High: {snapshot.get('REG', {}).get('High')}")
print(f"52-Week Range: {snapshot.get('REG', {}).get('52-WEEK RANGE ^')}")
print(f"P/E Ratio: {snapshot.get('REG', {}).get('P/E Ratio (TTM) **')}")

# Get market watch data for this stock
market_data = ticker.market_watch()
print(market_data)

# Get historical price data (1 year)
history = ticker.history(period="1y", interval="1d")
print(history.head())

# Get recent intraday trades (last 2 days)
intraday = ticker.intraday()
print(intraday.head())

Market Data

import pypsx

# Get full market watch (all stocks)
# Note: Different endpoints return different symbol counts
# Market Watch: ~486 symbols (includes all actively traded)
# Trading Board: ~479 symbols (order book data)
market_watch = pypsx.market_watch()
print(f"Total stocks in market watch: {len(market_watch)}")

# Get top performers
performers = pypsx.top_performers()
print("Top Gainers:")
print(performers["top_gainers"].head())

print("Top Decliners:")
print(performers["top_decliners"].head())

print("Most Active:")
print(performers["top_actives"].head())

# Get sector summary
sectors = pypsx.sector_summary()
print(sectors.head())

# Get all available stock symbols from trading board
# get_symbols() returns a list of clean symbols (without suffixes XD, NC, XR)
symbols_list = pypsx.get_symbols()
print(f"Total symbols: {len(symbols_list)}")

# To get DataFrame with Symbol, Name, Tag columns (Tag shows suffix if present)
from endpoints.trading_board import get_symbols as get_symbols_df
symbols_df = get_symbols_df()  # Returns DataFrame with Symbol, Name, Tag columns
print(f"Total symbols (DataFrame): {len(symbols_df)}")
print(symbols_df.head())

Historical Data

import pypsx

# Get 1 year of historical data for a stock
ticker = pypsx.PSXTicker("OGDC")

# Get full OHLCV data for specific date range
full_data = ticker.get_historical(start_date="2024-01-01", end_date="2024-12-31")
print(full_data.head())

# Download multiple symbols at once
df = pypsx.download(["OGDC", "PPL", "KEL"], period="6mo", interval="1d")
print(df.head())

Indices and Sectors

import pypsx

# Get all indices overview
indices = pypsx.get_indices()
print(indices.head())

# Get constituents of an index (e.g., KSE100)
kse100 = pypsx.index_constituents("KSE100")
print(f"KSE100 has {len(kse100)} constituents")
print(kse100.head())

# Get sector information
sectors = pypsx.sector_summary()
print(sectors.head())

# Get complete indices breakdown with statistics
indices_breakdown = pypsx.get_indices_breakdown()
print(f"Total indices: {indices_breakdown['total_indices']}")
print(f"Total unique symbols: {indices_breakdown['unique_symbols']}")
for idx, count, stats in indices_breakdown['indices'][:5]:
    print(f"{idx}: {count} symbols (Current: {stats.get('current', 'N/A')})")

# Get complete sector breakdown with company counts and averages
sector_breakdown = pypsx.get_sector_breakdown()
print(f"\nTotal sectors: {sector_breakdown['total_sectors']}")
print(f"Total companies: {sector_breakdown['total_companies']}")

Backward Compatibility

The library maintains backward compatibility:

• pypsx.Ticker is an alias for pypsx.PSXTicker
• pypsx.PSXSymbol is also available (legacy)

Notes

• Dividends: PSX doesn't provide a dividends endpoint. The dividends property uses an external data source.
• Data Availability: Some data may not be available when the market is closed.
• Symbol Names: Use official PSX symbols (e.g., "OGDC", "PPL", "KEL").
