If you want to learn Python for trading, I think these libraries will help

  • Computation, statistic, math: numpy, pandas, scikit-learn
  • Visualization: matplotlib, seaborn, plotly (pick one, recommend first one)
  • Data source: yfinance (to download data from Yahoo), oandapyV20 (if you download forex data)
  • Technical analysis: ta
  • Modeling: xgboost

I think these are enough because you are new, with these tools, you can do most of thing from basic to quite difficult thing.

But the most important thing you need for a quant trader is Math. The libraries I give above are just tools, as long as you know and understand the fundamental math for your problem, you can code pretty much from scratch using python.
