In simple English
This tool lets you write Python code to grab financial data directly from TradingView. You can search through thousands of stocks, crypto coins, bonds, and currencies without opening a web browser. It turns complex market tables into neat data tables inside your own scripts. You do not need a paid TradingView account to make it work. The project is free to use and runs entirely on your own machine.
What it is
An unofficial Python library (a collection of pre-written code that helps you build programs faster) that queries TradingView screener endpoints and returns Pandas dataframes (two-dimensional tables for working with data in Python). It includes thousands of financial fields, historical fundamentals, real-time quotes, and calendar feeds.
What it is good for
Solo builders and traders who want to automate market research, test trading strategies, or feed live financial metrics into their own custom applications.
- Pulls data for stocks, crypto, forex, bonds, and futures through a single consistent interface.
- Returns results directly as Pandas dataframes ready for analysis or export.
- Includes built-in helper functions for financial statements, corporate calendars, and real-time quotes.
- Relies on undocumented third-party endpoints that can break if TradingView changes its website layout.
- Requires basic familiarity with Python and Pandas to process the returned data tables.
- Does not include an official guarantee of uptime or long-term API stability from TradingView.
