Project description
Welcome to the Magic World of siat
Version history
Current version: 3.2
This version unifies the architecture of stock, bond and investment fund together.
The unifcation not only makes it convenient to analyze stock, bond and investment fund in same scripts, but also make it easier to construct an investment portfolio with stock, bond and investment fund as components. Version structure: X.Y.Z
X is the major version for architecture upgrade only. Y is the functional version for functional enhancement. Z is the minor version just for bug fixing.
What is siat?
siat is a Python plug-in, which stands for security investment analysis toolkit.
It is specially designed for teaching and learning purposes on security investment in universities for undergraduate and postgraduate programs.
Quick examples of using siat
from siat import *
Example 1: Apple stock price for the recent month
apple=security_trend("AAPL")
You may expect to more information, such as price trend in a recent year (MRY), with the high/low point, current price and average price, like below:
apple=security_trend("AAPL", start="MRY",
mark_top=True, mark_bottom=True, mark_end=True,
average_value=True)
Example 2: Comparing Price changes among Apple, Microsoft and NVidia
You may expect compare the price changes for the recent quarter (MRQ) for the three stocks.
Since there is a major stock split for NVidia in 2024 by 1:10, it is necessary to use adjusted prices (Adj Close) to compare these stock prices.
comp=security_trend(['AAPL','MSFT','NVDA'],
start='MRQ',
indicator='Adj Close',
preprocess='scaling',
mark_top=True, mark_bottom=True,
annotate=True, annotate_value=True)
Example 4: Bollinger band for Apple in the recent quarter
# Script security_technical only supports 4 popular technical indicators: MACD, Bollinger band, KDJ and RSI.
apple=security_technical("AAPL",
technical="Bollinger",
start="MRQ",
loc1="upper left", loc2="lower right")
Example 5: CCI for Apple in recent quarter
# Script security_technical2 supports about 20 popular technical methods.
apple=security_technical2("AAPL",

How to install siat?
The author strongly recommends using siat together with Jupyter Notebook or Jupyter Lab in Anaconda. In order to install siat for the very first time, open a Jupyter Notebook, and type in the following command:
!pip install siat
If the above method does not work, something might be wrong in your Python path settings. Try to open an Anaconda Prompt in Windows or a Terminal App in Mac or Linux, and type in the following command:
pip install siat
How to upgrade siat?
In Jupyter Notebook or Jupyter Lab:
upgrade_siat()
If you suffer from slow internet connection (often in campus classrooms with many students), try to use alternative sources, such as:
upgrade_siat(alternative="tsinghua")
upgrade_siat(alternative="alibaba")
If the above methods do not work for you, you have to goto the traditional ways to use command-line script, such as:
pip install --upgrade siat
Are there more detailed case studies on using siat?
YES!
There are hundreds of video case studies in the author's channel (most in Chinese, some in English).
