Alpha Vantage
This project is a software library and programmatic interface designed to fetch, wrap, and analyze financial market data and technical indicators from the Alpha Vantage API. It functions as a client for retrieving stock, cryptocurrency, and foreign exchange data.
The library includes a technical analysis toolset for calculating financial metrics and indicators, such as Bollinger Bands, and utilizes an asynchronous market data fetcher to execute concurrent requests across multiple assets to reduce total wait time.
It covers data retrieval for stock time series, foreign exchange rates, and cryptocurrency market data. These capabilities support broader financial market analysis and the development of algorithmic trading strategies.
