---

The goal behind this project is to facilitate downloading cryptocurrency candlestick data fast & simple.
Currently only the [Bitfinex](https://www.bitfinex.com/) exchange is supported with more to come in future releases.

The command-line interface is built using [Click](https://click.palletsprojects.com/en/7.x/), which is intuitive and will prompt you for the commands.

Once the data is downloaded, it will be converted and stored in a `.csv, .sqlite3 and .pickle` file for convenient analysis.
The data will include the `Open, High, Low, Close` of the candles and the `volume` during the `interval` and its `timestamp`.

See [documentation](https://crypto-candlesticks.readthedocs.io/, "project-documentation") and [Github repository](https://github.com/Corfucinas/crypto-candlesticks/, "project-repository") for more information.

## Installation

To install the Crypto-candlesticks project,
run this command in your terminal:

```bash
pip install crypto-candlesticks
```

Or if you are using [Poetry](https://python-poetry.org/)

```bash
poetry add crypto-candlesticks
```

## Usage

crypto-candlesticks can be used the following way:

```bash
$ crypto-candlesticks
"Welcome, what data do you wish to download?"
```

Which will prompt the following:

```text
Cryptocurrency symbol to download (ie. BTC, ETH, LTC):
Base pair:
Interval to download the candlestick data:
Date to start downloading the data (ie. YYYY-MM-DD):
Date up to the data will be downloaded (ie. YYYY-MM-DD):
```

Or you can pass the arguments yourself and skip the prompt:

```text

(e.g. [1m|5m|15m|30m|1h|3h|6h|12h|1D|7D|14D|1M])

-sd , --start_date

YYYY, MM, DD from which the candlestick data
will start.
(e.g. [2018-01-01])
