# Wickra — Python bindings
Streaming-first technical indicators powered by a Rust core.
```bash
pip install wickra
```
## Quick start
```python
import numpy as np
import wickra as ta
# Batch — TA-Lib-style usage
prices = np.linspace(100, 200, 1000)
rsi = ta.RSI(14).batch(prices) # NumPy array; NaN during warmup
# Streaming — feed ticks one at a time
rsi = ta.RSI(14)
for price in live_prices:
v = rsi.update(price) # O(1) per tick
if v is not None and v > 70:
...
```
## What's included
25 streaming-first indicators across four families. Every one passes a
`batch == streaming` equivalence test and reference-value tests:
- **Trend** — SMA, EMA, WMA, DEMA, TEMA, HMA, KAMA
- **Momentum** — RSI (Wilder), MACD, Stochastic, CCI, ROC, WilliamsR, ADX,
MFI, TRIX, AwesomeOscillator, Aroon
- **Volatility** — BollingerBands, ATR, Keltner, Donchian, PSAR
- **Volume** — OBV, VWAP
## Why streaming-first matters
Classic TA libraries are batch-only: every live tick triggers a full
recomputation over the entire history. Wickra updates indicator state in
O(1) per tick. On a 5K-bar history the streaming RSI gap is ~17× over the
nearest peer with a streaming API and 100×+ over batch-only libraries.
