pip install lightweight-charts
- White screen? Having issues with pywebview? Click here.
- Simple and easy to use.
- Blocking or non-blocking GUI.
- Streamlined for live data, with methods for updating directly from tick data.
- Multi-Pane Charts using the
SubChart
. - The Toolbox, allowing for trendlines, rays and horizontal lines to be drawn directly onto charts.
- Callbacks allowing for timeframe (1min, 5min, 30min etc.) selectors, searching, and more.
- Direct integration of market data through Polygon.io's market data API.
Supports: Jupyter Notebooks, PyQt, wxPython, Streamlit, and asyncio.
