- Removed ChartAsync.
- Added the `show_async` method to `Chart`.
- Refactored how the TopBar is used. The docs explain this in detail, but a basic rundown is:
- `corner_text` and `create_switcher` are no longer methods. The `topbar` attribute of `chart` should be used instead.
- switchers and textboxes, now created with `chart.topbar.textbox` and `chart.topbar.switcher` require a name to be passed to them, which is used to access its instance (e.g `chart.topbar[‘timeframe’]`)
- If you have any questions about these changes, or potential enhancements, feel free to raise an issue and I will get back to you ASAP :)
- PtQt and Wx can now use either synchronous or asynchronous callback functions
- BETA: Support for Jupyter Notebooks
- Fixed a bug causing the ‘date’ column of DataFrames passed to `set`, `update`, and `update_from_tick` to be modified.

|
|
if __name__ == '__main__':
|
|
|
|
chart = Chart()
|
|
|
|
# Columns: | time | open | high | low | close | volume (if volume is enabled) |
|
|
df = pd.read_csv('ohlcv.csv')
|
|
chart.set(df)
|
|
|
|
chart.show(block=True)
|
|

from lightweight_charts import Chart
|
|
|
|
if __name__ == '__main__':
|
|
|
|
chart = Chart()
|
|
|
|
df1 = pd.read_csv('ohlcv.csv')
|
|
df2 = pd.read_csv('next_ohlcv.csv')
|
|
|
|
chart.set(df1)
|
|
|
|
chart.show()
|
|
|
|
last_close = df1.iloc[-1]
|
|
|
|
for i, series in df2.iterrows():
|
|
chart.update(series)
|
|
|
|
if series['close'] > 20 and last_close < 20:
|
|
chart.marker(text='The price crossed $20!')
|
|
|
|
last_close = series['close']
|
|
sleep(0.1)
