What is different from matplotlib.finance ?

d1Ng0 opened this issue · comments

The official guide mentions the old finance module is deprecated and has been moved to mpl_finance.
Is anything actually different, or is there a good reasons for adding this additional library, since it doesn't come with matplotlib ?

If you want the finance-specific plotting then you will need to install this library.

This package includes volume_overlay module from the deprecated finance?

@jorgeog96, yes I believe the only functionality removed was pulling data from Yahoo Finance. volume_overlay is still present.

I can confirm that it's a drop in replacement. After resisting the upgrade from Matplotlib 2.1.2, I used the mpl_finance class and it works with Matplotlib 2.2.0.

why is candlestick_ohlc not identifiable when ran? I have mpl_finance packages on top of matplotlib
