Easy_klines is a Python library that provides a simple and efficient solution for retrieving historical candlestick data from exchange APIs and provides efficient solutions for streaming historical candlestick data.
The library overcomes the limitations of exchange APIs, such as rate limits and inefficient data retrieval, by providing a unified interface for accessing candlestick data across multiple exchanges. It currently supports Binance, Bybit, and Oanda exchanges.
Easy_klines allows you to easily retrieve historical candlestick data for a specific symbol and timefram.
Candlestick streaming works by sending a request to the exchange server upon the closing of a candle in a specified timeframe. The server responds with the latest data, which is then appended to the previous data.
The easy_kline library also provides the ability to save the retrieved data to an Excel file. However, it's important not to edit or open the Excel file while running the program, as it may cause errors.
Note that the easy_kline.pickle file should never be deleted or edited.
You can install Easy_klines using pip:
pip install easy-kline
Easy_kline Library Arguments for Retrieving Cryptocurrency or Forex market historical Data
symbol: the symbol of the cryptocurrency or forex market that you want to retrieve the data for. For example,'BTCUSDT' or 'ETHUSDT' for banance and bybit, 'EUR_USD' or 'CAD_JPY' for oanda.
timeframe: the timeframe for the candlestick data. For example, '1h' for one-hour intervals or '5m' for five-minute intervals. valid timeframes ['1m', '3m', '5m','15m', '30m', '1h', '2h', '4h', '6h', '8h', '12h' '1d', '1w']
start_time: the start time for the data in the format 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM'. The output of the library is from start_time until the current time.
futures : The futures parameter is a boolean value that determines whether the symbol being queried is a futures contract or a spot trading symbol. If futures is set to False (which is the default), the function will fetch data for a spot trading symbol. If futures is set to True, the function will fetch data for a futures trading symbol.
retry_count: The number of times the function will retry fetching data in case of a bad connection. The default value is set to 5.
auto_print: The auto_print parameter in the function is a boolean value that is False by default. If auto_print is set to True, the data will be printed automatically without requiring any additional code to be written for printing. When auto_print is set to True, the data will be printed automatically as soon as it is fetched. However, in streaming mode, only the last data point will be printed.
To retrieve historical data from Binance spot markets, use the following code:
import easy_kline
# retrieve BTCUSDT spot trading data with 1-hour candlestick interval from 2023-01-20 12:00
BTCUSDT = easy_kline.binance('BTCUSDT', '1h', '2023-01-20 12:00')
print(BTCUSDT)To retrieve historical data from Binance futures markets, use the following code:
import easy_kline
# retrieve SOLUSDT futures trading data with 2-hour candlestick interval from 2023-01-20 12:00
SOLUSDT = easy_kline.binance('SOLUSDT', '2h', '2023-01-20 12:00', futures=True)
print(SOLUSDT)To stream real-time data from Binance futures markets and calculate the Simple Moving Average (SMA), use the following code:
import easy_kline
# define function to calculate SMA
def SMA(data, length, column):
return data[column].rolling(window=length).mean()
# retrieve ADAUSDT futures trading data with 2-hour candlestick interval from 2023-01-20 12:00
ADAUSDT = easy_kline.binance('ADAUSDT', '2h', '2023-01-20 12:00', futures=True)
# stream real-time data and calculate SMA
while True:
ADAUSDT = easy_kline.stream()
ADAUSDT['sma'] = SMA(ADAUSDT, 14, 'Close')
print(ADAUSDT)
# Note that the easy_kline.stream() function will continue to stream data until the program is stopped.To retrieve available symbols for spot and futures trading on Binance, you can use the binance_symbol() function provided by the easy_kline library.
The following code shows how to use this function to retrieve the available symbols:
import easy_kline
# Retrieving available symbols for spot trading
spot_symbols = easy_kline.binance_symbol()
print("Available symbols for spot trading on Binance:", spot_symbols)
# Retrieving available symbols for futures trading
futures_symbols = easy_kline.binance_symbol(futures=True)
print("Available symbols for futures trading on Binance:", futures_symbols)To retrieve historical data from Bybit spot markets, use the following code:
import easy_kline
# retrieve AAVEUSDT spot trading data with 4-hour candlestick interval from 2022-01-14 11:00
AAVEUSDT = easy_kline.bybit('AAVEUSDT', '4h', '2023-01-20 12:00')
print(AAVEUSDT)To retrieve historical data from Bybit futures markets, use the following code:
import easy_kline
# retrieve BNBUSDT futures trading data with 15-minutes candlestick interval from 2023-01-20 12:00
BNBUSDT = easy_kline.bybit('BNBUSDT', '15m', '2023-01-20 12:00', futures=True)
print(BNBUSDT)To stream real-time data from Bybit futures markets and calculate the Simple Moving Average (SMA), use the following code:
import easy_kline
# define function to calculate SMA
def SMA(data, length, column):
return data[column].rolling(window=length).mean()
# retrieve ETHUSDT futures trading data with 2-hour candlestick interval from 2023-01-20 12:00
ETHUSDT = easy_kline.bybit('ETHUSDT', '2h', '2023-01-20 12:00', futures=True)
# stream real-time data and calculate SMA
while True:
ETHUSDT = easy_kline.stream()
ETHUSDT['sma'] = SMA(ETHUSDT, 14, 'Close')
print(ETHUSDT)
# Note that the easy_kline.stream() function will continue to stream data until the program is stopped.To retrieve available symbols for spot and futures trading on Bybit, you can use the bybit_symbol() function provided by the easy_kline library.
The following code shows how to use this function to retrieve the available symbols:
import easy_kline
# Retrieving available symbols for spot trading
spot_symbols = easy_kline.bybit_symbol()
print("Available symbols for spot trading on bybit:", spot_symbols)
# Retrieving available symbols for futures trading
futures_symbols = easy_kline.bybit_symbol(futures=True)
print("Available symbols for futures trading on bybit:", futures_symbols)To retrieve historical data from Oanda , use the following code:
import easy_kline
# retrieve AUD_CAD historical data with 4-hour candlestick interval from 2022-01-14 11:00
AUD_CAD = easy_kline.oanda('AUD_CAD', '4h', '2023-01-20 12:00')
print(AUD_CAD)To stream real-time data from Oanda futures markets and calculate the Simple Moving Average (SMA), use the following code:
import easy_kline
# define function to calculate SMA
def SMA(data, length, column):
return data[column].rolling(window=length).mean()
# retrieve USD_JPY historical data with 2-hour candlestick interval from 2023-01-20 12:00
USD_JPY = easy_kline.oanda('USD_JPY', '2h', '2023-01-20 12:00')
# stream real-time data and calculate SMA
while True:
USD_JPY = easy_kline.stream()
USD_JPY['sma'] = SMA(USD_JPY, 14, 'Close')
print(USD_JPY)
# Note that the easy_kline.stream() function will continue to stream data until the program is stopped.To retrieve available symbols on Oanda, you can use the oanda_symbol() function provided by the easy_kline library.
The following code shows how to use this function to retrieve the available symbols:
