Pandas Technical Analysis (Pandas TA) is an easy to use library that is built upon Python's Pandas library with more than 100 Indicators and Utility functions. These indicators are commonly used for financial time series datasets with columns or labels similar to: datetime, open, high, low, close, volume, et al. Many commonly used indicators are included, such as: Simple Moving Average (SMA) Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), Hull Exponential Moving Average (HMA), Bollinger Bands (BBANDS), On-Balance Volume (OBV), Aroon & Aroon Oscillator (AROON) and more.
This version contains both the orignal code branch as well as a newly refactored branch with the option to use Pandas DataFrame Extension mode. All the indicators return a named Series or a DataFrame in uppercase underscore parameter format. For example, MACD(fast=12, slow=26, signal=9) will return a DataFrame with columns: ['MACD_12_26_9', 'MACDh_12_26_9', 'MACDs_12_26_9'].
- Has 100+ indicators and utility functions.
- Option to use multiprocessing when using df.ta.strategy(). See below.
- Example Jupyter Notebook under the examples directory.
- A new 'ta' method called 'strategy' that be default, runs all the indicators.
- Abbreviated Indicator names as listed below.
- Extended Pandas DataFrame as 'ta'.
- Easily add prefixes or suffixes or both to columns names.
- Categories similar to TA-lib and tightly correlated with TA Lib in testing.
- Improved the calculation performance of indicators: Exponential Moving Averagage and Weighted Moving Average.
- Removed internal core optimizations when running
df.ta.strategy('all')
with multiprocessing. See theta.strategy()
method for more details.

A Pandas DataFrame Extension, extends a DataFrame allowing one to add more functionality and features to Pandas to suit your needs. As such, it is now easier to run Technical Analysis on existing Financial Time Series without leaving the current DataFrame. This extension by default returns the Indicator result or it can append the result to the existing DataFrame by including the parameter 'append=True' in the method call. Examples below.
$ pip install pandas_ta
$ pip install -U git+https://github.com/twopirllc/pandas-ta
import pandas as pd
import pandas_ta as ta
# Load data
df = pd.read_csv('symbol.csv', sep=',')
# Calculate Returns and append to the df DataFrame
df.ta.log_return(cumulative=True, append=True)
df.ta.percent_return(cumulative=True, append=True)
# New Columns with results
df.columns
# Take a peek
df.tail()
# vv Continue Post Processing vv
import pandas as pd
import pandas_ta as ta
# Help about this, 'ta', extension
help(pd.DataFrame().ta)
# List of all indicators
pd.DataFrame().ta.indicators()
# Help about the log_return indicator
help(ta.log_return)
Strategy is a new Pandas (TA) method to facilitate bulk indicator processing. By default, running df.ta.strategy()
will append all
applicable indicators to DataFrame df
. Utility methods like above
, below
et al are not included.
- The
ta.strategy()
method is still under development. Future iterations will allow you to load ata.json
config file with your specific strategy name and parameters to automatically run you bulk indicators.
# This property only effects df.ta.strategy(). When set to True,
# it enables multiprocessing when processing "ALL" the indicators.
# Default is False
df.ta.mp = True
# Runs and appends all indicators to the current DataFrame by default
# The resultant DataFrame will be large.
df.ta.strategy()
# Or equivalently use name='all'
df.ta.strategy(name='all')
# Use verbose if you want to make sure it is running.
df.ta.strategy(verbose=True)
# Use timed if you want to see how long it takes to run.
df.ta.strategy(timed=True)
# You can change the number of cores to use. The default is the the number of
# cpus you have. Not utilizing all your cores will result in quicker results.
# For instance if you have 4 CPUs, then cores=2 will be quicker.
df.ta.strategy(cores=2)
# Maybe you do not want certain indicators.
# Just exclude (a list of) them.
df.ta.strategy(exclude=['bop', 'mom', 'percent_return', 'wcp', 'pvi'], verbose=True)
# Perhaps you want to use different values for indicators.
# This will run ALL indicators that have fast or slow as parameters.
# Check your results and exclude as necessary.
df.ta.strategy(fast=10, slow=50, verbose=True)
# Sanity check. Make sure all the columns are there
df.columns
prehl2 = df.ta.hl2(prefix="pre")
print(prehl2.name) # "pre_HL2"
endhl2 = df.ta.hl2(suffix="post")
print(endhl2.name) # "HL2_post"
bothhl2 = df.ta.hl2(prefix="pre", suffix="post")
print(bothhl2.name) # "pre_HL2_post"
# The 'reverse' is a helper property that returns the DataFrame
# in reverse order
df = df.ta.reverse
# The 'datetime_ordered' property returns True if the DataFrame
# index is of Pandas datetime64 and df.index[0] < df.index[-1]
# Otherwise it return False
time_series_in_order = df.ta.datetime_ordered
# Set ta to default to an adjusted column, 'adj_close', overriding default 'close'
df.ta.adjusted = 'adj_close'
df.ta.sma(length=10, append=True)
# To reset back to 'close', set adjusted back to None
df.ta.adjusted = None
