The easiest fix is updating your numpy to a newer version.

It is true that I generate the C files with a recent version of numpy, so if you want to try using your existing numpy, you can: git checkout ta-lib-python, delete the C files, or regenerate them with make cython, and then python setup.py install...

I have latest numpy still getting the same error

[mrjbq7]

@chattel-tech

It looks like you have numpy 1.22.4? I think latest is 1.23.2.

When you say getting the same error, it's on import of ta-lib?

[uirty]

[Google Colab]Execute in order

!pip install numpy==1.23.2 OR !pip install --upgrade numpy

Restart execution phase [Ctrl+M .]

install Ta-Lib

import talib

@KPCA1994 @uirty @mrjbq7 May I ask if this problem has been solved? Because I also have the same problem.

The following procedure can be executed on the google colab platform to install Talib completely, but there will be an exception at the import stage.

Issue still exists in google colab. Working fine in jupyter notebook with latest numpy version.

[uirty]

@rarben I don't understand why you can't use it, I don't have an abnormal condition.

!pip install pandas
!pip install numpy==1.23.2
!pip install FinMind
!pip install yfinance
!pip install mplfinance
!pip install lineTool
!pip install requests

@uirty working fine with your code. Closing the issue.
