Are you planning using Matplolib ?

See http://matplotlib.org/examples/pylab_examples/finance_demo.html

or some video from sentdex https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eAtcIoVGb-4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xje2By9D80Q ...

Other project to consider https://github.com/dalejung/ts-charting

Interactive plotting with the ability to change start / end date, zoom in, zoom out will be great (maybe with PyQtGraph) https://github.com/pyqtgraph/pyqtgraph/blob/1036edf61841699bb6f0bf4901b67da9519513d2/examples/customGraphicsItem.py
