Thanks for the awesome tutorial. I understand that the function to create fake data does not work well resulting in non-functional windows set up. Could you please provide a fix?

Thanks in advance!

You need to download this data/daily directory: https://github.com/mrocklin/fakestockdata/tree/master/data/daily

And put it in the data/ directory in the scipy-2016-parallel directory (the git repository that you downloaded.)

To check that this worked verify that there are several files in scipy-2016-parallel/data/daily/

I'm working on Mac OS/X and I had to download data. Doesn't there need to be data in the json and minute sub-directories as well ?
