        # alpaca-trade-api-python
        
        `alpaca-trade-api-python` is a python library for the [Alpaca Commission Free Trading API](https://alpaca.markets).
        It allows rapid trading algo development easily, with support for
        both REST and streaming data interfaces. For details of each API behavior,
        please see the online [API document](https://docs.alpaca.markets).
        ```diff
        - To use the Streaming abilities go to section called StreamConn
        ```
        
        
        Note this module supports only python version 3.6 and above, due to
        the async/await and websockets module dependency.
        
        ## Install
        
        ```bash
        $ pip3 install alpaca-trade-api
        ```
        
        ## Example
        
        In order to call Alpaca's trade API, you need to sign up for an account and obtain API key pairs. Replace <key_id> and <secret_key> with what you get from the web console.
        
        ### REST example
        ```python
        import alpaca_trade_api as tradeapi
        
        api = tradeapi.REST('<key_id>', '<secret_key>', base_url='https://paper-api.alpaca.markets') # or use ENV Vars shown below
        account = api.get_account()
        api.list_positions()
        ```
        
        ## Example Scripts
        
        Please see the `examples/` folder for some example scripts that make use of this API
        
        ## API Document
        
        The HTTP API document is located at https://docs.alpaca.markets/
        
        ## API Version
        
        API Version now defaults to 'v2', however, if you still have a 'v1' account, you may need to specify api_version='v1' to properly use the API until you migrate.
        
        ## Authentication
        
        The Alpaca API requires API key ID and secret key, which you can obtain from the
        web console after you sign in.  You can pass `key_id` and `secret_key` to the initializers of
        `REST` or `StreamConn` as arguments, or set up environment variables as
        outlined below.
        
        ## Alpaca Environment Variables
        
        The Alpaca SDK will check the environment for a number of variables that can be used rather than hard-coding these into your scripts.
        
        | Environment                      | default                                                                                | Description                                                                                                            |

        ## REST
        
        The `REST` class is the entry point for the API request.  The instance of this
        class provides all REST API calls such as account, orders, positions,
        and bars.
        
        Each returned object is wrapped by a subclass of the `Entity` class (or a list of it).
        This helper class provides property access (the "dot notation") to the
        json object, backed by the original object stored in the `_raw` field.
        It also converts certain types to the appropriate python object.
        
        ```python
        import alpaca_trade_api as tradeapi
        
        api = tradeapi.REST()
        account = api.get_account()
        account.status
        => 'ACTIVE'
        ```
        
        The `Entity` class also converts the timestamp string field to a pandas.Timestamp
        object.  Its `_raw` property returns the original raw primitive data unmarshaled
        from the response JSON text.
        
        Please note that the API is throttled, currently 200 requests per minute, per account.  If your client exceeds this number, a 429 Too many requests status will be returned and this library will retry according to the retry environment variables as configured.
        
        If the retries are exceeded, or other API error is returned, `alpaca_trade_api.rest.APIError` is raised.
        You can access the following information through this object.
        
        - the API error code: `.code` property
        - the API error message: `str(error)`
        - the original request object: `.request` property
        - the original response objecgt: `.response` property
        - the HTTP status code: `.status_code` property
        
        ### REST.get_account()
        Calls `GET /account` and returns an `Account` entity.
        
        ### REST.list_orders(status=None, limit=None, after=None, until=None, direction=None, nested=None)
        Calls `GET /orders` and returns a list of `Order` entities.
        `after` and `until` need to be string format, which you can obtain by `pd.Timestamp().isoformat()`
        
        ### REST.submit_order(symbol, qty, side, type, time_in_force, limit_price=None, stop_price=None, client_order_id=None, order_class=None, take_profit=None, stop_loss=None, trail_price=None, trail_percent=None)
        Calls `POST /orders` and returns an `Order` entity.
        
        Below is an example of submitting a bracket order.
        ```py
        api.submit_order(
            symbol='SPY',
            side='buy',
            type='market',
            qty='100',
            time_in_force='day',
            order_class='bracket',
            take_profit=dict(
                limit_price='305.0',
            ),
            stop_loss=dict(
                stop_price='295.5',
                limit_price='295.5',
            )
        )
        ```
        
        ### REST.get_order_by_client_order_id(client_order_id)
        Calls `GET /orders` with client_order_id and returns an `Order` entity.
        
        ### REST.get_order(order_id)
        Calls `GET /orders/{order_id}` and returns an `Order` entity.
        
        ### REST.cancel_order(order_id)
        Calls `DELETE /orders/{order_id}`.
        
        ### REST.cancel_all_orders()
        Calls `DELETE /orders`.
        
        ### REST.list_positions()
        Calls `GET /positions` and returns a list of `Position` entities.
        
        ### REST.get_position(symbol)
        Calls `GET /positions/{symbol}` and returns a `Position` entity.
        
        ### REST.list_assets(status=None, asset_class=None)
        Calls `GET /assets` and returns a list of `Asset` entities.
        
        ### REST.get_asset(symbol)
        Calls `GET /assets/{symbol}` and returns an `Asset` entity.
        
        ### REST.get_barset(symbols, timeframe, limit, start=None, end=None, after=None, until=None)
        Calls `GET /bars/{timeframe}` for the given symbols, and returns a Barset with `limit` Bar objects
        for each of the the requested symbols.
        `timeframe` can be one of `minute`, `1Min`, `5Min`, `15Min`, `day` or `1D`. `minute` is an alias
        of `1Min`. Similarly, `day` is an alias of `1D`.
        `start`, `end`, `after`, and `until` need to be string format, which you can obtain with
        `pd.Timestamp().isoformat()`
        `after` cannot be used with `start` and `until` cannot be used with `end`.
        
        ### REST.get_aggs(symbol, timespan, multiplier, _from, to):
        Calls `GET /aggs/ticker/{symbol}/range/{multiplier}/{timespan}/{from}/{to}` and returns the `Aggs` entity.
        `multiplier` is the size of the timespan multiplier.
        `timespan` is the size of the time window, can be one of `minute`, `hour`, `day`, `week`, `month`, `quarter` or `year`.
        `_from` and `to` must be in `YYYY-MM-DD` format, e.g. `2020-01-15`.
        
        ### REST.get_last_trade(symbol)
        Calls `GET /last/stocks/{symbol}` and returns a `Trade` entity.
        
        ### REST.get_last_quote(symbol)

        ### REST.get_calendar(start=None, end=None)
        Calls `GET /calendar` and returns a `Calendar` entity.
        
        ### REST.get_portfolio_history(date_start=None, date_end=None, period=None, timeframe=None, extended_hours=None)
        Calls `GET /account/portfolio/history` and returns a PortfolioHistory entity. PortfolioHistory.df
        can be used to get the results as a dataframe.

        ## StreamConn
        
        The `StreamConn` class provides WebSocket-based event-driven
        interfaces.  Using the `on` decorator of the instance, you can
        define custom event handlers that are called when the pattern
        is matched on the channel name.  Once event handlers are set up,
        call the `run` method which runs forever until a critical exception
        is raised. This module itself does not provide any threading
        capability, so if you need to consume the messages pushed from the
        server, you need to run it in a background thread.
        
        We provide 2 price data websockets. The polygon data, and the alpaca data.
        We default to Alpaca data, and one must explicitly specify the polygon data stream in order to use that.
        It is done by passing the `data_stream` keyword to the `__init__()` function of `StreamConn` (options: `'alpacadatav1', 'polygon'`)
        
        This class provides a unique interface to the two interfaces, both
        Alpaca's account/trade updates events and Polygon's price updates.
        One connection is established when the `subscribe()` is called with
        the corresponding channel names.  For example, if you subscribe to
        `trade_updates`, a WebSocket connects to Alpaca stream API, and
        if `AM.*` given to the `subscribe()` method, a WebSocket connection is
        established to Polygon's interface. If your account is enabled for
        Alpaca Data API streaming, adding `alpacadatav1/` prefix to `T.<symbol>`,
        `Q.<symbol>` and `AM.<symbol>` will also connect to the data stream
        interface.
        
        The `run` method is a short-cut to start subscribing to channels and
        running forever.  The call will be blocked forever until a critical
        exception is raised, and each event handler is called asynchronously
        upon the message arrivals.
        
        The `run` method tries to reconnect to the server in the event of
        connection failure.  In this case, you may want to reset your state
        which is best in the `connect` event.  The method still raises
        an exception in the case any other unknown error happens inside the
        event loop.
        
        The `msg` object passed to each handler is wrapped by the entity
        helper class if the message is from the server.
        
        Each event handler has to be a marked as `async`.  Otherwise,
        a `ValueError` is raised when registering it as an event handler.
        
        ```python
        conn = StreamConn()
        
        @conn.on(r'^trade_updates$')
        async def on_account_updates(conn, channel, account):
            print('account', account)
        
        @conn.on(r'^status$')
        async def on_status(conn, channel, data):
            print('polygon status update', data)
        
        @conn.on(r'^AM$')
        async def on_minute_bars(conn, channel, bar):
            print('bars', bar)
        
        @conn.on(r'^A$')
        async def on_second_bars(conn, channel, bar):
            print('bars', bar)
        
        # blocks forever
        conn.run(['trade_updates', 'AM.*'])
        
        # if Data API streaming is enabled
        # conn.run(['trade_updates', 'alpacadatav1/AM.SPY'])
        
        ```
        
        You will likely call the `run` method in a thread since it will keep running
        unless an exception is raised.
        
        ### StreamConn.subscribe(channels)
        Request "listen" to the server.  `channels` must be a list of string channel names.
        
        ### StreamConn.unsubscribe(channels)
        Request to stop "listening" to the server.  `channels` must be a list of string channel names.
        
        ### StreamConn.run(channels)
        Goes into an infinite loop and awaits for messages from the server.  You should
        set up event listeners using the `on` or `register` method before calling `run`.
        
        ### StreamConn.on(channel_pat)
        As in the above example, this is a decorator method to add an event handler function.
        `channel_pat` is used as a regular expression pattern to filter stream names.
        
        ### StreamConn.register(channel_pat, func)
        Registers a function as an event handler that is triggered by the stream events
        that match with `channel_path` regular expression. Calling this method with the
        same `channel_pat` will overwrite the old handler.
        
        ### StreamConn.deregister(channel_pat)
        Deregisters the event handler function that was previously registered via `on` or
        `register` method.
        
        #### Debugging
        Websocket exceptions may occur during execution.
        It will usually happen during the `consume()` method, which basically is the 
        websocket steady-state.<br>
        exceptions during the consume method may occur due to:
        - server disconnections
        - error while handling the response data
        
        We handle the first issue by reconnecting the websocket every time there's a disconnection.
        The second issue, is usually a user's code issue. To help you find it, we added a flag to the 
        StreamConn object called `debug`. It is set to False by default, but you can turn it on to get a more
        verbose logs when this exception happens.
        Turn it on like so `StreamConn(debug=True)`  
        
        ## Logging
        You should define a logger in your app in order to make sure you get all the messages from the different components.<br>
        It will help you debug, and make sure you don't miss issues when they occur.<br>
        The simplest way to define a logger, if you have no experience with the python logger - will be something like this:
        ```py
        import logging
        logging.basicConfig(format='%(asctime)s %(message)s', level=logging.INFO)
        ```
        
        # Polygon API Service
        
        Alpaca's API key ID can be used to access Polygon API, the documentation for
        which is found [here](https://polygon.io/docs/).
        This python SDK wraps their API service and seamlessly integrates it with the Alpaca
        API. `alpaca_trade_api.REST.polygon` will be the `REST` object for Polygon.
        
        The example below gives AAPL daily OHLCV data in a DataFrame format.
        
        ```py
        import alpaca_trade_api as tradeapi
        
        api = tradeapi.REST()
        # all of these examples work
        aapl = api.polygon.historic_agg_v2('AAPL', 1, 'day', _from='2019-01-01', to='2019-02-01').df
        aapl = api.polygon.historic_agg_v2('AAPL', 1, 'day', _from=datetime.datetime(2019, 1, 1), to='2019-02-01').df
        aapl = api.polygon.historic_agg_v2('AAPL', 1, 'day', _from=datetime.date(2019, 1, 1), to='2019-02-01').df
        aapl = api.polygon.historic_agg_v2('AAPL', 1, 'day', _from=pd.Timestamp('2019-01-01'), to='2019-02-01').df
        # timestamp should be in milliseconds datetime.datetime(2019, 1, 1).timestamp()*1000 == 1546293600000

        and here's a minute example usage:
        ```py
        import pytz
        NY = 'America/New_York'
        
        start = pytz.timezone(NY).localize(datetime(2020,1,2,9,30)).timestamp()*1000  # timestamp in micro seconds
        # another alternative will be: start = pd.Timestamp('2020-01-02 09:30', tz=NY).value/1e6
        end = pytz.timezone(NY).localize(datetime(2020,1,2,16,0)).timestamp()*1000
        df = api.polygon.historic_agg_v2('AAPL', 1, 'minute', _from=start, to=end).df
        
        ```
        
        ## polygon/REST
        It is initialized through the alpaca `REST` object.
        
        ### polygon/REST.exchanges()

        ### polygon/REST.symbol_type_map()
        Returns a `SymbolTypeMap` object.
        
        ### polygon/REST.historic_trades_v2(symbol, date,timestamp=None, timestamp_limit=None, reverse=None, limit=None)
        Returns a `TradesV2` which is a list of `Trade` entities.
        
        - `date` is a date string such as '2018-2-2'.  The returned quotes are from this day only.
        - `timestamp` is an integer in Unix Epoch nanoseconds as the lower bound filter, exclusive.
        - `timestamp_limit` is an integer in Unix Epoch nanoseconds as the maximum timestamp allowed in the results.
        - `limit` is an integer for the number of ticks to return.  Default and max is 50000.
        
        ### polygon/TradesV2.df
        Returns a pandas DataFrame object with the ticks returned by `historic_trades_v2`.
        
        ### polygon/REST.historic_quotes_v2(symbol, date,timestamp=None, timestamp_limit=None, reverse=None, limit=None)
        Returns a `QuotesV2` which is a list of `Quote` entities.
        
        - `date` is a date string such as '2018-2-2'.  The returned quotes are from this day only.
        - `timestamp` is an integer in Unix Epoch nanoseconds as the lower bound filter, exclusive.
        - `timestamp_limit` is an integer in Unix Epoch nanoseconds as the maximum timestamp allowed in the results.
        - `limit` is an integer for the number of ticks to return.  Default and max is 50000.
        
        ### polygon/QuotesV2.df
        Returns a pandas DataFrame object with the ticks returned by the `historic_quotes_v2`.
        
        ### polygon/REST.historic_agg_v2(self, symbol, multiplier, timespan, _from, to, unadjusted=False, limit=None)
        Returns an `AggsV2` which is a list of `Agg` entities. `AggsV2.df` gives you the DataFrame
        object.
        
        - `multiplier` is an integer affecting the amount of data contained in each Agg object.
        - `timespan` is a string affecting the length of time represented by each Agg object. It is one of the following values:
          - `minute`, `hour`, `day`, `week`, `month`, `quarter`, `year`
        - `_from` is an Eastern Time timestamp string/object that filters the result for the lower bound, inclusive. we accept the date in these formats: 
         datetime.datetime, datetime.date, pd.Timestamp, datetime.timestamp,
          isoformat string (YYYY-MM-DD)
        - `to` is an Eastern Time timestamp string that filters the result for the upper bound, inclusive. we support the same formats as the _from field
        - `unadjusted` can be set to true if results should not be adjusted for splits.
        - `limit` is an integer to limit the number of results.  3000 is the default and max value.
        
        The returned entities have fields relabeled with the longer name instead of shorter ones.
        For example, the `o` field is renamed to `open`.
        
        ### polygon/Aggs.df
        Returns a pandas DataFrame object with the ticks returned by `hitoric_agg_v2`.
