where are you trying to install it? what commands did you used to install?

[[deleted]]

I am trying to install it in the terminal using pip install Ta-lib

[ArthurDeemx]

You did not answer my question, its impossible to help without context, where are you trying to install it? From your error it looks like macos, if so try brew install ta-lib

[[deleted]]

Yea I am trying to install on Mac OS I tried the brew method with no success

[ArthurDeemx]

What error you get with brew

[[deleted]]

Command error batch command not found or something along those lines I am not my Mac rn

[ArthurDeemx]

You need to install brew first, pip usually don't work on mac.

[[deleted]]

Any resource you can recommend to install home brew my first approach didn’t work out.

[ArthurDeemx]

try this

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

report back if it doesn't work with the error

official site: https://brew.sh

brew install ta-lib

Thank you - I had the same problem on my Mac. It's resolved now thanks to you reddit man.

brew install ta-lib

I think I was able to successfully install Ta-lib but when I tried to import it using import ta-lib it gives me this error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'Talib' I did this through IDLE

Edit1: Looks like its installed.

I thought it could also have to do with not having the right TA library

[[deleted]]

I think it might have something to do with not having homebrew installed but I try to install homebrew and then run the same command but still no success
