## Candle Candle and Candles classes for handling bars from the MetaTrader 5 terminal. ```python class Candle ``` A class representing bars from the MetaTrader 5 terminal as a customized class analogous to Japanese Candlesticks. You can subclass this class for added customization. ### Attributes |Name|Type|Description| |---|---|---| |**time**|**int**|Period start time| |**open**|**int**|Open price| |**high**|**float**|The highest price of the period| |**low**|**float**|The lowest price of the period| |**close**|**float**|Close price| |**tick_volume**|**float**|Tick volume| |**real_volume**|**float**|Trade volume| |**spread**|**float**|Spread| |**Index**|**int**|Custom attribute representing the position of the candle in a sequence.| ### \_\_init\_\_ ```python def __init__(**kwargs) ``` Create a Candle object from keyword arguments. Kwargs are set as instance attributes. #### Arguments: |Name|Type|Description| |---|---|---| |**kwargs**|**Any**|Candle attributes and values as keyword arguments.| ### set\_attributes ```python def set_attributes(**kwargs) ``` Set keyword arguments as instance attributes ### mid ```python @property def mid() -> float ``` The median of open and close #### Returns: |Type|Description| |---|---| |**float**|The median of open and close| ### is_bullish ```python def is_bullish() -> bool ``` A simple check to see if the candle is bullish. #### Returns: |Type|Description| |---|---| |**bool**|True or False| ### is_bearish ```python def is_bearish() -> bool ``` A simple check to see if the candle is bearish. #### Returns: |Type|Description| |---|---| |bool|True or False| ## Candles ```python class Candles(Generic[_Candle]) ``` An iterable container class of Candle objects in chronological order. A wrapper around Pandas DataFrame object. ### Attributes: |Name|Type|Description| |---|---|---| |**data**|**DataFrame**|A pandas DataFrame of all candles in the object.| |**Index**|**Series['int']**|A pandas Series of the indexes of all candles in the object| |**time**|**Series['int']**|A pandas Series of the time of all candles in the object| |**open**|**Series[float]**|A pandas Series of the opening price of all candles in the object| |**high**|**Series[float]**|A pandas Series of the high price of all candles in the object| |**low**|**Series[float]**|A pandas Series of the low price of all candles in the object| |**close**|**Series[float]**|A pandas Series of the closing price of all candles in the object| |**tick_volume**|**Series[float]**|A pandas Series of the tick volume of all candles in the object| |**real_volume**|**Series[float]**|A pandas Series of the real volume of all candles in the object| |**spread**|**Series[float]**|A pandas Series of the spread of all candles in the object| |**timeframe**|**TimeFrame**|The timeframe of the candles in the object| |**Candle**|**Type[Candle]**|The Candle class for representing the candles in the object.| |**data**|**DataFrame**|A pandas DataFrame of all candles in the object.| **Notes**: When subclassing this class make sure to Candle attribute is set to your desired candle class. #### \_\_init\_\_ ```python def __init__(*, data: DataFrame | _Candles | Iterable, flip=False, candle_class: Type[_Candle] = None) ``` A container class of Candle objects in chronological order. #### Arguments: |Name|Type|Description|Default| |---|---|---|---| |**data**|**DataFrame** or **Candles** or **Iterable**|A pandas dataframe, a Candles object or any suitable iterable| |**flip**|**bool**|Reverse the chronological order of the candles to the oldest first.|False| |**candle_class**|**Type[Candle]**|A subclass of Candle to use as the candle class.|Candle| #### ta ```python @property def ta() ``` Access to the pandas_ta library for performing technical analysis on the underlying data attribute. Use this as you would use the pandas_ta library. #### Returns: |Type|Description| |---|---| |**pandas_ta**|The pandas_ta library| #### ta\_lib ```python @property def ta_lib() ``` Access to the ta library for performing technical analysis. Not dependent on the underlying data attribute. Use this for functions that require pandas Series as input. #### Returns: |Type|Description| |---|---| |ta|The ta library| #### data ```python @property def data() -> DataFrame ``` A pandas DataFrame of all candles in the object. #### rename ```python def rename(inplace=True, **kwargs) -> _Candles | None ``` Rename columns of the candles class. #### Arguments: | Name | Type |Description|Default| |---------|----------|---|---| | inplace | **bool** |Rename the columns inplace or return a new instance of the class with the renamed columns|True| | **kwargs** | **str** |The new names of the columns|| #### Returns: |Type|Description| |---|---| |**Candles**|A new instance of the class with the renamed columns if inplace is False.|
