Issue with get_prices function in M6

venu-analytics opened this issue 3 years ago · 5 comments

Hi

While using the precise package for M6 portfolio optimization I'm facing an issue with get_prices() method. To estimate the covariance it needs the data from Yahoo finance in get_prices() method but it is backing off the API. Please resolve this.

Thanks in advance.

#resolved - change the import pandas_datareader.data as web to import pandas_datareader as web

Does this require a code change?

Hi,

while using the precise in google colab I was facing issue with the import statement because of that API was backing off, that's why I've suggested to change.

Unfortunately there isn't a fix for that because yahoo can't be used from google colab I believe. The IP is blocked.

No, IP is not blocked if I do import pandas_datareader as web rather than import pandas_datareader.data as web. People who were using colab like me might face the similar issue. So, this might be the solution for them.
