Python for Finance

1: Plotting of Individual Stocks
This file retrieves stock prices of a specific ticker (to be chosen by the user) from Yahoo Finance API, then stores them in a newly created CSV file.
It then plots a candlestick graph of the adjusted closing price of the selected stock.
TSLA is the default ticker.
A different stock can be selected by changing the ticker name in the web.DataReader() function.

2: Web Scrap & Visualisation
A program used to scrap data from tables in websites and convert them into CSV file.
It then visualises the data from the CSV file as a correlation heatmap.
By default, data is scrapped from the S&P500 Wikipedia page.

3: Preprocessing Data for Machine Learning
Uses the CSV file generated from Web Scrap & Visualisation.py and votes buy/sell/hold decision through 3 classifiers:

1. svm.LinearSVC()
2. neighbors.KNeighborsClassifier()
3. RandomForestClassifier()

Results:

Voting labels:

• 1 -> buy
• -1 -> sell
• 0 -> hold

BAC is the default ticker.
