There is also a dependency on the OHLC module for running tests.

Example Usage

from datetime import datetime, timedelta

from indicators import rsi
from ohlc import ohlc

today = datetime.today()
data = ohlc('SPY', start_date = today - timedelta(days = 365), end_date = today)

rsi_values = rsi(data, period = 14)
print(rsi_values)

The result will be returned as a pandas Series.
