A Python library built on matplotlib and pandas for visualizing and visually analyzing financial market data. It provides a high-level API for candlestick and OHLC charts, technical studies overlays, subplots, and price-movement plots like Renko and Point & Figure.
Use cases
- plot candlestick charts from OHLCV data in pandas
- visualize intraday stock market data
- add technical analysis indicators to price charts
- create Renko or point-and-figure price-movement plots
- draw support and resistance trend lines on financial charts
- animate real-time updating market charts
When to choose
- you already use pandas DataFrames for market data and want quick financial plots
- you need candlestick/OHLC visualization with matplotlib-level customization
- you want to overlay custom technical studies on price charts
When to avoid
- you need interactive web-based charting like TradingView-style dashboards
- you need backtesting or trading execution, not just visualization
- your project doesn't use matplotlib/pandas
