Getbhav convert to Metastock #234

Open algaeginger opened 1 year ago

algaeginger commented 1 year ago

Hi, I used getbhav since its inception till it provided NSE bhavcopy. I again came back to download BSE bhavcopy for the first time, a couple of days back. It worked very well just as in the past. However I've encountered a odd problem. The bhavcopy has the scrip symbol as a number (BSE symbols) but the Metastock conversion requires a alphanumeric symbol to proceed with the conversion. Has anyone overcome this issue? Some roundabout? Is it possible to delete the number symbol col and leave the alphanumeric symbol column in the BSE bhavcopy? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

Please provide me with a sample file, and I will try to assist you.

Dear Paresh,

Thank you very much for offering to assist .

This is the format that is required

4THDIM,20230526,21.2,21.2,21.2,21.2,5500 ACEINTEG,20230526,37.5,38.9,37.5,38.9,107 ADL,20230526,73,76.25,71,73.65,5549 AKI,20230526,107.6,112.9,103.2,103.95,25826 ALPSINDUS,20230526,2.45,2.45,2.4,2.45,27303 ANSALAPI,20230526,9.95,10,9.65,9.85,22682 ATAM,20230526,237.5,238.75,228,229.7,12559 AURIONPRO,20230526,713.6,748.2,707,748.2,87140

The output of getbhav for BSE is 533022,20090101,158,184,152,177,43740 526921,20090101,911,911,852,91,15916 532628,20090101,39,41,387,3995,372209 523395,20090101,940,940,9201,9201,25 500009,20090101,944,95,888,95,29486 531190,20090101,88,88,88,88,50

Need the symbol to be alphabetical or alphanumeric . So if the raw BSE bhavcopy shown below

SC_CODE SC_NAME SC_GROUP SC_TYPE OPEN HIGH LOW CLOSE LAST PREVCLOSE NO_TRADES NO_OF_SHRS NET_TURNOV TDCLOINDI 533022 20 MICRONS B Q 15.8 18.4 15.2 17.7 17.7 15.5 685 43740 760568 526921 21ST CEN.MGM B Q 9.11 9.11 8.52 9.1 9.11 8.68 56 15916 140479

could have the SC_NAME instead of the SC_CODE

I appreciate your prompt response and help.

Best regards, algae

A simple solution to this is to write a python script using the pandas module, which replaces the first column which is the bse code and replaces it with the name. And another solution is to write a new downloader which downloads the data from bse india site and saves it in the desired format so that the latest data can be updated. I will write the script of first solution on Tuesday and give you the link, and if I get time for the second solution, I will definitely try

algaeginger commented 1 year ago

Thank you very much Paresh. You're going out of your way to help.

It's not all that important, you would be extremely busy in your (IT) job.

I apologize for the delay. I had intended to complete this task on Tuesday but was unable to do so because I was out of town. Here is the link to the file, I have written and instructions on how to use it.

I have created 'getbhavcopy-alternative' for accessing NSE EOD data, and it was part of my plan to include a similar option for BSE EOD data.

Dear Paresh,

Thank you so much for your email and your solutions to the issue we were facing. Your expertise and help are greatly appreciated.

Life can get busy, and I appreciate you taking the time to undertake this project and for sharing it, Can I request you to make it an exe file so that non techies can use it. I can't make use of it myself. Presently i have a vba code to delete the extraneous columns and save it as a csv file. Your program will be a life saver.

pparesh25 commented 1 year ago

Installing and running Python scripts is very easy. Videos are available on YouTube for guidance. However, I cannot share the .exe file of my script, 'Getbhavcopy-alternative,' because Microsoft Defender shows a false positive. But you can build it yourself using the PyInstaller library to create a standalone .exe file. There is also a YouTube video tutorial available on how to create an .exe file from a .py file using PyInstaller. I will provide a video link that explains how to install Python and download data using the source code in the .py file.

pparesh25 commented 1 year ago

I hope you have already used the program to convert the BSE code column to names. If not, please follow these steps: create two new folders on drive C and name them 'BSE' and 'CSV'. Place your BSE bhavcopy file in the 'BSE' folder and the 'name.csv' file in the 'CSV' folder (note that the folder names must be capitalized). Finally, double-click on the .py file, and that's it!

algaeginger commented 1 year ago

I dind't understand that. Okay with creating two folders in C drive ' BSE' 'CSV'. Placed the bhavcopy(BSE data) in the BSE folder and the list of names in CSV folder.

Now what? where is the py file? and double clicking it? will it work? Apparently py files run through cmd prompt?

  1. Download the zip file from the following URL: BSE-Code-to-Name.zip.

    1. Extract the contents of the downloaded zip file.

    Inside the extracted folder, you will find two files: "name.csv" and "BSE-Code-to-Name.py".

    1. Create a folder named "CSV" in C: and place the "name.csv" file inside it.

    2. Create another folder named "BSE" in C: and place all the "bse-eq-bhavcopy.txt" files inside it.

    3. Ensure that Python is correctly installed on your system. If not, download and install Python from the official website (https://www.python.org/).

    4. If your Python installation is correct, navigate to the extracted folder and locate the "BSE-Code-to-Name.py" file.

    5. Double-click on the "BSE-Code-to-Name.py" file to run it. This script will process the files in the "BSE" folder and perform the desired changes.

    6. After running the script, check the files in the "BSE" folder to see if any changes have occurred.

    7. If the changes have not happened, you can try using Visual Studio Code (VS Code) as an alternative. Download and install VS Code from the official website (https://code.visualstudio.com/).

    8. Open VS Code, navigate to the extracted folder, and open the "BSE-Code-to-Name.py" file in the editor.

Hey Paresh,

Thanks a lot for the trouble.

Will also circulate it among trader groups so that it reaches more people.

Thanks again

Hi Paresh ,

Yes, the work to add the name in BSE bhav copy has been completed though im yet to use NSE bhav copy-alternative. Is it something like bhavcopy, meaning fill in the date and click to download? Or a python procedure via cmd prompt? Thats always a bit intimidating :)

Cheers,

If your installation of Python is proper, you can simply double-click on the 'Getbhavcopy-Eq-Ind.py' file. This action will automatically open the command prompt, where you will be prompted to enter the start date in the format YYYY-MM-DD, followed by the end date. Once you provide the dates, a new folder will be created on the C drive, and the data for the selected date range will be saved in that folder. I have renamed the NSE index names to match the name used in the old bhavcopy, and the data format is also consistent with the old bhavcopy. As a result, the databases created in Amibroker or Metastock using Heman sir's 'getbhavcopy' software can be updated seamlessly without requiring any modifications.
