Price Rate of Change (ROC) : Python Matplotlib Finance and Math Tutorials
This tutorial video teaches you about the Price Rate of Change (ROC) indicator, how to program it in Python, and how to chart it in Matplotlib.
The purpose of this series is to teach mathematics within python. To do this, we will be working with a bunch of the more popular stock indicators used with technical analysis.
With most of the indicators, we will first discuss them, their purpose, then teach how to program them into python, then actually display them on a chart.
The basic charting application comes from a previous tutorial series, here: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQVvvaa0QuDcR-u9O8LyLR7URiKuW-XZq
