Python toolkit of finance calculations for strategy research
What it is
A Python library collecting functions for financial calculations and indicator construction. The modules focus on reusable pieces that come up repeatedly in strategy research, so they can be called from your own analysis code instead of rewritten each time. Python developers and analysts doing quantitative research are the intended audience. The project's own description is brief, so plan to read the source to see exactly which calculations are available before relying on it.
