wickra 0.1.3

Streaming-first technical indicators: incremental, fast, install-free.

Wickra — Python bindings

Streaming-first technical indicators powered by a Rust core.

pip install wickra

Quick start

import numpy as np
import wickra as ta

# Batch — TA-Lib-style usage
prices = np.linspace(100, 200, 1000)
rsi = ta.RSI(14).batch(prices)            # NumPy array; NaN during warmup

# Streaming — feed ticks one at a time
rsi = ta.RSI(14)
for price in live_prices:
    v = rsi.update(price)                 # O(1) per tick
    if v is not None and v > 70:
        ...

What's included

25 streaming-first indicators across four families. Every one passes a batch == streaming equivalence test and reference-value tests:

• Trend — SMA, EMA, WMA, DEMA, TEMA, HMA, KAMA
• Momentum — RSI (Wilder), MACD, Stochastic, CCI, ROC, WilliamsR, ADX, MFI, TRIX, AwesomeOscillator, Aroon
• Volatility — BollingerBands, ATR, Keltner, Donchian, PSAR
• Volume — OBV, VWAP

Why streaming-first matters

Classic TA libraries are batch-only: every live tick triggers a full recomputation over the entire history. Wickra updates indicator state in O(1) per tick. On a 5K-bar history the streaming RSI gap is ~17× over the nearest peer with a streaming API and 100×+ over batch-only libraries.
