hi, it's easy. The program needs commandline arguments (clargs), so:
$ python src/candle_data.py
usage: candle-data [-h] [--nice] [--count COUNT] --granularity
{M,H8,H1,D,H2,H3,H12,S10,H6,S30,H4,M30,M5,M4,S15,M1,S5,W,M2,M15}
[--price {M,B,A,BA,MBA}] [--from FROM] [--to TO]
[--instruments [INSTRUMENTS]]
candle-data: error: argument --granularity is required
gives a usage message, because arguments were not provided and the first error it found ia reported
Run:
$ python src/candle_data.py -h
... and it gives full explanation
Now if you run:
python src/candle_data.py --nice --count 2 --granularity M5 --price MBA --instruments EUR_USD --instruments EUR_GBP
you get:

that is how it works. But you need to provide the relevant arguments.
Succes!
Hello! First of all, thank you very much for posting these Oanda examples, its hard to find many of these out there. As for my question. I keep running the candle-data.py and I get the error
candle-data: error: the following arguments are required: --granularity
What could be causing this? I am sorry if this question seems general, I am still relatively new with python. Also I was wondering what does "clargs" mean and what does it do?
Thank you!
