Stock Market using Python

 "The stock market is a device for transferring money from the impatient to the patient." - Warren Buffett


Today we'll look into few ways for accessing the stock market. And we'll do this using Python!

Now, as we know that there are 2 stock exchange in India; BSE and NSE

So we'll get the data from both!

To begin with let's access the data from BSE first.

(P.S: I certainly like the 2nd and the 3rd method to access stock market!)


* So, to import the BSE data we need to "pip install bsedata".

=> And then import the module,


=> Create an object to store the Driver Class




=> Then we need to do "getQuote('script_code')" where we need to provide a script code of a company which we need to access.
Just like here we have given;


=> And from here we can see that the script code was for the company named "V-MART". But we can't remember all the script code hence we need to download this script file from the BSE website.


* The second method is from NSE, for this we need to "pip install nsepy".
=> We'll import the module;

=> And, with "get_history(symbol=' ', start=' ', end=' ')" (providing the essential parameters) save it into a variable called 'data'.



=> Now, here we are taking 'Previous Close'.
(``I find this method to be convenient!``)
And likewise we can get data of any stock;
Like here we've taken a stock of "SBI" from 31-01-2023 to 01-02-2023


And here we've taken 2  columns into account.

Let's take data of 'TATA MOTORS';




* For the third method we'll use nsetools for which we need to "pip install nsetools".
=> Then let's first import required modules;



=> And just by 'get_quote(''company_name)' we can get the stock price of any company.


=> Now here we can also do top_gainers;


=> And top_losers of the day;



And by this we can see that accessing the stock market is pretty easy! 👍
