Data reader for yahoo finance to get daily stocks prices. It can be used to develop backtests and it can get all the historic daily data on yahoo finance

This project started as a migration of the pandas datareader functionality to read yahoo finance stock prices. In December of 2022 yahoo started to encrypt the data in the HTML, so I needed to investigate a way of evolving the package. And then found a yfinance package that used query2 of yahoo finance API, and started to use it

https://github.com/pydata/pandas-datareader/blob/main/pandas_datareader/yahoo/daily.py

This lib have a strong advantage on backtesting strategies as it can give all the dataframe in yahoo finance, this means that can get daily data on futures like NQ=F and ES=F since 2000 and it goes as far as getting data from 1927 on the SP500 yahoo finance symbol ^GSPC

Yahoo Finance data

Features #

Get daily data from yahoo finance for the entire dataframe available

Getting started #

yahoo_finance_data_reader: ^1.0.7

Usage #

YahooFinanceResponse response = await YahooFinanceDailyReader().getDailyDTOs('GOOG');

Additional information #

To include in your app as a widget you can start with this future builder and debug your way until your desired result
