Every other manifest in the repo carries the author string kingchenc <kingchencp@gmail.com> — workspace Cargo.toml, bindings/node/package.json, all per-platform npm package.jsons, release.yml. pyproject.toml had neither authors nor maintainers, so the PyPI listing fell back to the implicit empty value. Align with the rest of the repo.
Wickra — Python bindings
Streaming-first technical indicators powered by a Rust core.
pip install wickra
Quick start
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
71 streaming-first indicators across eight families. Every one passes a
batch == streaming equivalence test and reference-value tests:
- Moving Averages — SMA, EMA, WMA, DEMA, TEMA, HMA, KAMA, SMMA, TRIMA, ZLEMA, T3, VWMA
- Momentum Oscillators — RSI (Wilder), Stochastic, CCI, ROC, Williams %R, MFI, Awesome Oscillator, MOM, CMO, TSI, PMO, StochRSI, Ultimate Oscillator
- Trend & Directional — MACD, ADX (+DI/-DI), Aroon, TRIX, Aroon Oscillator, Vortex, Mass Index, Choppiness Index, Vertical Horizontal Filter
- Price Oscillators — PPO, DPO, Coppock, Accelerator Oscillator, Balance of Power
- Volatility & Bands — ATR, Bollinger Bands, Keltner Channels, Donchian Channels, NATR, StdDev, Ulcer Index, Historical Volatility, Bollinger Bandwidth, %B, True Range, Chaikin Volatility
- Trailing Stops — Parabolic SAR, SuperTrend, Chandelier Exit, Chande Kroll Stop, ATR Trailing Stop
- Volume — OBV, VWAP (cumulative + rolling), ADL, Volume-Price Trend, Chaikin Money Flow, Chaikin Oscillator, Force Index, Ease of Movement
- Price Statistics — Typical Price, Median Price, Weighted Close, Linear Regression, Linear Regression Slope, Z-Score, Linear Regression Angle
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.
