### Why Python?
|
|
|
|
Python is one of the most used programming languages due to its simplified syntax and shallow learning curve.
|
|
On top of this, it is highly used in data science and academia world (particularly on finance, economics
|
|
or business related degrees). This is very important, as it is the first time in history that users - regardless
|
|
of their background - can so easily add features to an investment research platform.
|
|
|
|
<--->
|
|
|
|
### Why Open Source?
|
|
|
|
An open source product allows for higher quality, greater reproducibility, lower costs, more transparency,
|
|
and faster go-to-market due to the strong community created. In addition, users can adapt the platform to their
|
|
needs or even build proprietary features on top of our infrastructure - which ultimately can result in a marketplace.
|
|
|
|
<--->
|
|
|
|
### Importing and Exporting data
|
|
|
|
The terminal allows for users to import their own proprietary datasets to use on our econometrics menu. In addition, users are allowed to export any type of data to any type of format whether that is raw data in Excel or an image in PNG. This is also ideal for finance content creation.

|
### Automatic notebook reports
|
|
|
|
Create notebook templates (through papermill) which can be run on different tickers. This level of automation allows speeding up the development of your investment thesis and reduce human error.
|
|
|
|
<--->
|
|
|
|
### OpenBB API and Customizable notebook reports
|
|
|
|
Use our OpenBB Terminal environment to access raw data through a Jupyter Notebook and play with it accordingly. Or just create customizable notebook reports for your colleagues and friends doing research on a particular asset or a macroeconomic event impact on said asset. The possibilities are endless.
|
|
|
|
<--->
|
|
|
|
### Advanced user and routines
|
|
|
|
Navigate through 750+ terminal features using fast shortcuts and leverage auto-complete functionality. Jump from looking into your portfolio to comparing the financials of those companies in a few seconds. Leverage our routines implementation to run analysis while you drink your coffee or tea.

## Accessing the OpenBB Terminal
|
|
|
|
The OpenBB Terminal can be directly installed on your computer via our installation program. Within this section, you
|
|
are guided through the installation process and how to launch the program. If you are a developer, please have a
|
|
look <a href="https://github.com/OpenBB-finance/OpenBBTerminal" target="_blank">here</a>. If you struggle with the
|
|
installation process, please don't hesitate to reach us on <a href="https://openbb.co/discord" target="_blank">Discord</a>
|
|
or visit our <a href="https://openbb.co/contact" target="_blank">contact page</a>.
|
|
|
|
### Installation for Windows
|
|
|
|
The process starts off by downloading the installer, see below for how to download the most recent release:
|
|
|
|
1. Go to [the openbb.co website](https://www.openbb.co/products/terminal#get-started)
|
|
2. Click on the `Download` button in the Windows Installer section
|
|
|
|
When the file is downloaded, use the following steps to run the OpenBB Terminal:
|
|
|
|
{{< columns >}}
|
|
|
|
**Step 1: Double-click the `.exe` file that got downloaded to your `Downloads` folder**
|
|
|
|
You will most likely receive the error below stating "Windows protected your PC". This is because the installer is
|
|
still in beta phase, and the team has not yet requested verification from Windows.
|
|
|
|
<p align="center"><a target="_blank" href="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/46355364/169502271-69ad8075-165f-4b1a-8ab8-254d643a5dae.png"><img width="500" alt="windows_protected_your_pc" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/46355364/169502271-69ad8075-165f-4b1a-8ab8-254d643a5dae.png"></a></p>
|
|
|
|
<--->
|
|
|
|
**Step 2: Click on `More info` and select `Run anyway` to start the installation process**
|
|
|
|
Proceed by following the steps. Do note that if you wish to install the application to "Program Files" that you will have to run the resulting application as Administrator.
|
|
|
|
<p align="center"><a target="_blank" href="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/46355364/169502143-ba88de53-7757-48f2-9ec4-748d4917044b.png"><img width="500" alt="run_anyway" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/46355364/169502143-ba88de53-7757-48f2-9ec4-748d4917044b.png"></a></p>
|
|
|
|
<--->
|
|
|
|
**Step 3: Double-click on the application that appeared on your Desktop, you are now able to run the OpenBB Terminal**
|
|
|
|
The first time this takes a bit longer to load, this can take up to a few minutes.
|
|
|
|
<p align="center"><a target="_blank" href="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/46355364/169502187-f4e42333-a947-464b-9320-a8f63c7ce089.png"><img width="500" alt="run_the_terminal" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/46355364/169502187-f4e42333-a947-464b-9320-a8f63c7ce089.png"></a></p>

|
### Installation for macOS
|
|
|
|
The process starts off by downloading the installer, see below for how to download the most recent release:
|
|
|
|
1. Go to [the openbb.co website](https://www.openbb.co/products/terminal#get-started)
|
|
2. Click on the `Download` button in the macOS Installer section
|
|
|
|
When the DMG file is downloaded, use the following steps to run the OpenBB Terminal:
|
|
|
|
{{< columns >}}
|
|
|
|
**Step 1: Open the downloaded `OpenBB Terminal.dmg` and copy `OpenBB Terminal` folder into your `Applications`**
|
|
|
|
Open the `OpenBB Terminal.dmg` file that got saved to your "Downloads" folder and drag the "OpenBB Terminal" folder into "Applications" folder. A link to the `Applications` folder is presented on the screen.
|
|
Note that this should take some time as it is extracting the files from the .dmg file.
|
|
|
|
<p align="center"><img width=100% alt="image" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/11668535/173027899-9b25ae4f-1eef-462c-9dc9-86086e9cf197.png"></p>
|
|
|
|
<--->
|
|
|
|
**Step 2: Open the `OpenBB Terminal` app in the folder that you have just copied to your `Applications`.**
|
|
|
|
During first launch if you get a message saying that the application can't be launched, do the following:
|
|
Right-Click the app and select `Open`. You will see a message saying that macOS was not able to check whether the application contains malicious software. Click `Open` to proceed.
|
|
|
|
<p align="center"><img width=100% alt="image" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/11668535/173027798-b4d25a20-d932-4ed9-a8ce-f911c4ee4342.png"></p>
|
|
|
|
{{< /columns >}}
|
|
|
|
**Troubleshooting: Allow the application to run by going into your settings**
|
|
|
|
If you have trouble launching the app because of security settings and the "Right-click and Open" approach from Step 2 of these instructions doesn't work, go to `System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General`. You should see a message at the bottom that says that the file "was blocked from use because it is not from an identified developer". Click on `Allow anyway` or `Open anyway`.
|
|
|
|
<p align="center"><img width=60% alt="image" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/11668535/173027428-a85890d7-8a3c-4954-a6c0-d3214c635982.png"></p>

|
## Structure of the OpenBB Terminal
|
|
|
|
The OpenBB Terminal is based off the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command-line_interface" target="_blank">Command Line Interface (CLI)</a>
|
|
which is installed by default on every computer. By opening the application you have installed via "Accessing the OpenBB Terminal",
|
|
you are greeted with the following interface:
|
|
|
|
<a target="_blank" href="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/46355364/169503071-ffb2d88d-0786-4568-94c0-ad55c8f8f3e7.png"><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/46355364/169503071-ffb2d88d-0786-4568-94c0-ad55c8f8f3e7.png" alt="Main Menu" width="800"/></a>
|
|
|
|
The OpenBB Terminal is centered around keyboard input. To navigate and perform analysis you will have to type in the name of the command followed by an `ENTER` (⏎). If you wish to see information about the OpenBB Terminal you can do so by typing `about` and then press `ENTER` (⏎). As you are typing, you will notice that you receive suggestions, by using the `DOWN` (⌄) arrow and pressing `ENTER` (⏎) you can select the command and execute it.
|
|
|
|
Throughout the entire terminal, the same set of colors are used which all share the same representation. This is structured as follows:
|
|
- <b><span style="color:#00AAFF">Light Blue</span></b>: represents commands.
|
|
- <b><span style="color:#005CA9">Dark Blue</span></b>: represents menus, also recognizable by the `>` in front.
|
|
- <b><span style="color:#EF7D00">Orange</span></b>: represents titles and headers.
|
|
- <b><span style="color:#FCED00">Yellow</span></b>: represents descriptions of a parameter or variable.
|
|
- <b>White</b>: represents text, usually in combination with a description that is in Yellow.
|
|
|
|
### Explanation of Menus
|
|
|
|
Menus, depicted in <b><span style="color:#005CA9">Dark Blue</span></b>, take you to a new section of the terminal referred
|
|
to as a menu. For example, if you wish to view information about stocks, you can do so by typing `stocks` and pressing `ENTER` (⏎).
|
|
This opens a new menu as depicted below.
|
|
|
|
<a target="_blank" href="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/46355364/169503240-922357c8-5e2b-41f0-aca2-c1fc849dcd1c.png"><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/46355364/169503240-922357c8-5e2b-41f0-aca2-c1fc849dcd1c.png" alt="Stocks Menu" width="800"/></a>
|
|
|
|
Depending on the menu you are in, you are presented with a new set of commands (see <a href="#explanation-of-commands">Explanation of Commands</a>)
|
|
and menus you can select. There are interactions in place between each menu. For example, when selecting a company within
|
|
the `stocks` menu, the terminal will remember your selection when you visit the `fa` or `options` menu.
|
|
See <a href="terminal/stocks" target="_blank">Introduction to Stocks</a> for more information.
|
|
|
|
### Explanation of Commands
|
|
|
|
Commands, depicted in <b><span style="color:#00AAFF">Light Blue</span></b>, execute an action or task. For example,
|
|
the commands that you are able to use from any menu in the terminal (see <a href="#explanation-of-menus">Explanation of Menus</a>) are as follows:
|
|
|
|
- `cls`: clears the screen, by executing this command you are left with an empty screen.
|
|
- `help`, `h` or `?`: displays the menu that you are currently on.
|
|
- `quit`, `q` or `..`: allows for navigation through the menu. E.g. if you type `stocks` press `ENTER` (⏎) and then
|
|
use `q` and press `ENTER` (⏎) you return to where you started. Validate this by typing `?` and pressing `ENTER` (⏎).
|
|
- `support`: allows you to submit bugs, questions and suggestions.
|
|
|
|
Continuing with the example mentioned at `quit`, revisit the `stocks` menu and look at the commands. At the top you
|
|
will see a command named <a href="terminal/stocks/load" target="_blank">load</a>. To understand what this command can do, you can use `load -h` followed by `ENTER` (⏎). The `-h` stands for `help` and every command will have this feature. This will return the following:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
2022 May 19, 05:27 (🦋) /stocks/ $ load -h
|
|
usage: load [-t TICKER] [-s START] [-e END] [-i {1,5,15,30,60}] [--source {yf,av,iex,polygon}] [-p] [-f FILEPATH] [-m] [-w] [-r {ytd,1y,2y,5y,6m}] [-h]
|
|
|
|
Load stock ticker to perform analysis on. When the data source is yf (Yahoo Finance), an Indian ticker can be loaded by using '.NS'at the end, e.g. 'SBIN.NS'. See available market in https://help.yahoo.com/kb/exchanges-data-providers-yahoo-finance-sln2310.html.
|
|
|
|
optional arguments:
|
|
-t TICKER, --ticker TICKER
|
|
Stock ticker (default: None)
|
|
-s START, --start START
|
|
The starting date (format YYYY-MM-DD) of the stock (default: 2019-05-15)
|
|
-e END, --end END The ending date (format YYYY-MM-DD) of the stock (default: 2022-05-19)
|
|
-i {1,5,15,30,60}, --interval {1,5,15,30,60}
|
|
Intraday stock minutes (default: 1440)
|
|
--source {yf,av,iex,polygon}
|
|
Source of historical data. (default: yf)
|
|
-p, --prepost Pre/After market hours. Only works for 'yf' source, and intraday data (default: False)
|
|
-f FILEPATH, --file FILEPATH
|
|
Path to load custom file. (default: None)
|
|
-m, --monthly Load monthly data (default: False)
|
|
-w, --weekly Load weekly data (default: False)
|
|
-r {ytd,1y,2y,5y,6m}, --iexrange {ytd,1y,2y,5y,6m}
|
|
Range for using the iexcloud api. Note that longer range requires more tokens in account (default: ytd)
|
|
-h, --help show this help message (default: False)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This shows you all **arguments** the command has. These are additional options you can provide to the command. Each
|
|
default value is also displayed which is used when you do not select this option. For example, if I would use the <a href="https://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/12/what-is-a-stock-ticker.asp" target="_blank">stock ticker</a>
|
|
of Amazon (AMZN, which can also be found with `search amazon`), I can use `load AMZN` which will return the following:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
2022 May 19, 05:27 (🦋) /stocks/ $ load AMZN

The default values you see within `load -h` have been inputted here. E.g. the starting period is 2019-05-15. I can

We can check that this period has changed by looking into the <a href="https://www.investopedia.com/trading/candlestick-charting-what-is-it/" target="_blank">candle chart</a> with `candle`. This, again shares the same `-h` argument. This results in the following which indeed depicts our
|
|
selected period.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
2022 May 19, 05:44 (🦋) /stocks/ $ candle
|

```
|
|
<a target="_blank" href="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/46355364/169503345-a9409637-dc7a-4193-9c87-38b1b6ee1a08.png"><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/46355364/169503345-a9409637-dc7a-4193-9c87-38b1b6ee1a08.png" alt="Amazon Candle Chart" width="800"/></a>
|
|
|
|
As mentioned in the <a href="#explanation-of-menus">Explanation of Menus</a>, some information also transfers over to other menus and this includes the
|
|
loaded market data from <a href="terminal/stocks/load" target="_blank">load</a>.
|
|
So, if you would visit the `ta` menu (which stands for <a href="https://www.investopedia.com/terms/t/technicalanalysis.asp" target="_blank">Technical Analysis</a>) you will see that, by running any command, the selected period above is depicted again. Return to the Stocks menu again by using `q` and use it again to return to the home screen which can be shown with `?`.
|
|
|
|
## Accessing other sources of data via API keys
|
|
|
|
Within this menu you can define your, often free, API key from various platforms like Alpha Vantage, FRED, IEX, Twitter, DeGiro, Binance and Coinglass. API keys are in essence a set of random characters that is unique to you.
|
|
|
|
You can access this menu from the homepage with `keys` which will open the menu as shown below:
|
|
|
|
<a target="_blank" href="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/46355364/169802651-6e752a4c-9cfd-4ce1-a99c-978eee5a0aca.png"><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/46355364/169802651-6e752a4c-9cfd-4ce1-a99c-978eee5a0aca.png" width="800"/></a>
|
|
|
|
Within this menu you are able to set your API keys to access the commands that require that key. You can do so by typing the command followed by the API key, for example: `fred a215egade08a8d47cfd49c849658a2be`. When you press `ENTER` (⏎) the terminal will test whether this API key works. If it does, you receive the message `defined, test passed` and if it does not, you receive the message `defined, test failed`.
|
|
|
|
To figure out where you can obtain the API key, you can enter the command (e.g. `av`) and press `ENTER` (⏎) or use the table below. **We recommend that you gradually obtain and set keys whenever you wish to use features that require an API key. For example, if you are interested in viewing recent news about a company, you should set the API key from the 'News API'.**

|
tweak how the terminal behaves. For example, you are able to define the coloring, interactive graphs and whether to use
|
|
pretty tables.
|
|
|
|
## Obtaining support and/or giving feedback
|
|
|
|
Being an open source platform that wishes to tailor to the needs of any type of investor, we highly encourage anyone
|
|
to share with us their experience and/or how we can further improve the OpenBB Terminal. This can be anything
|
|
from a very small bug to a new feature to the implementation of a highly advanced Machine Learning model.
|
|
|
|
You are able to directly send us information about a bug or question/suggestion from inside the terminal by using
|
|
the `support` command which is available everywhere in the terminal. Here you can select which command you want to
|
|
report a bug, ask a question or make a suggestion on. When you press `ENTER` (⏎), you are taken to the Support form
|
|
which is automatically filled with your input. You are only required to include the type (e.g. bug, suggestion or
|
|
question) and message in the form although this can also be set directly from inside the terminal (see `support -h`).
|
|
|
|
<a target="_blank" href="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/46355364/169503483-c93c83fa-e9e9-4345-b816-8fcfe02b6785.png"><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/46355364/169503483-c93c83fa-e9e9-4345-b816-8fcfe02b6785.png" alt="Support Command" width="800"/></a>
