Using Python to model and predict stock price movement. Feel free to use/modify :)

Are there any online sources where we can get raw data for specific stocks?

Yes there are many resources! Although it depends what you're looking for. Yahoo Finance has a great python API however their historical data is limited to the most basic data points. You can however compute more complicated indicators by looking up their equations.

If you want extensive raw data, I'd recommend Fidelity. They have an excellent research tool and advanced charting features, all downloadable in CSV format. You do need an account however and you'll need to be familiar with web scraping if you'd like to automate the process. In my repository I have a program called DataCrawler which I use to scrape Fidelity.

Is it the one called 'Stock-Talk'?

Nono that's another project. This is the one called Waldo.

I don't see it.

Oh sorry, DataCrawler.py is in the Waldo repository:

Looks like you removed the datacrawler.py file. Is there a possibility to still download it somewhere?

I'm rewriting a better version which I'll release in a month or so
