Hi, I am new to programming and this is my first major work. I wish to add Bollinger Bands and Hull Moving Average(HMA) in finance_work2.py. Need your guidance. Installation details: Windows 7 Python 3.3.2 Matplotlib 1.2.1 Numpy 1.7.1 Ta-Lib As it is I don't have any issues running the script however, adding BB and HMA will complete my task. Thanks in advance. -- View this message in context: http://matplotlib.1069221.n5.nabble.com/To-add-Bollinger-Bands-in-finance-work2-py-tp41310.html Sent from the matplotlib - users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

I will give it a try with scipy user list.

I'm a beginner at matplotlib, but I do know what Bollinger bands are, and I'd suggest your best approach is to take a look at the matplotlib demo gallery here: http://matplotlib.org/examples in particular, study the code for the fifth example from the top here: http://matplotlib.org/examples/pylab_examples/plotfile_demo.html which implements a plot of Open, High. Low, and Closing prices. I'm assuming you know enough math to implement a Bollinger band version of a moving average, and can just substitute it for the code that plots the extra lines on the example. Good luck, Bill

One of the things that I learned when no one responds with a specific answer but shown the direction is that I am given an opportunity to learn and work by myself. I really appreciate your time and will start working on the example you have cited. In fact, I did get a complete Bollinger bands script however, I will start working on the line you have shown; it may open up new avenues. Regards.

Hi Bill, Made an important move, after a log jam for quite some. I spent some time exploring *TA-LIB for python*. Today I tested plotting Bollinger bands, SMA, WMA etc on my 5 min. intraday hist. chart. It was not bad. The most important one, *Hull Moving Average (HMA)* which is back bone to my system needs to be written. I will start working on that one, now I don't need to worry any more about other aspects. :) Thanks once again to both of you.
