A Julia wrapper for the Alpha Vantage API.

## Overview

This package is a Julia wrapper for the Alpha Vantage API. Alpha Vantage provides free realtime and historical data for equities, physical currencies, digital currencies (i.e. cryptocurrencies), and more than 50 technical indicators (e.g. SMA, EMA, WMA, etc.).

The Alpha Vantage API requires a [free API key](https://www.alphavantage.co/support/#api-key).

## Installation

```julia

Pkg.add("AlphaVantage")

```

and once you have obtained your API key pass it to the client as follows:.

```julia

using AlphaVantage

client = AlphaVantage.GLOBAL[]

client.key = "YOURKEY"

```

or set it as an environment variable

```bash

export ALPHA_VANTAGE_API_KEY=YOURKEY

```

and check that it is set using:

```julia

using AlphaVantage

AlphaVantage.GLOBAL[]

```

If you encounter a clear bug, please file a minimal reproducible example on GitHub.

## Features

* Daily, weekly and monthly prices for stocks, currencies, cryptocurrencies, and commodities.

* Technical indicators for stock prices.

# Convert to a DataFrame

data = DataFrame(spy);

# Convert timestamp column to Date type

data[!, :timestamp] = Dates.Date.(data[!, :timestamp]);

data[!, :open] = Float64.(data[!, :open])

# Plot the timeseries

plot(data[!, :timestamp], data[!, :open], label=["Open"])
