Stock Analyzer

Background

This repo is code for a GCP cloud function that takes stock ticks and calculates their period-over-period performance based on the adjusted close value. Which ticks and periods are of interest are based on value in a Google sheet.

To run

• Pip install requirements
• Make sure you create app/secrets.py which should contain a variable SHEETS_CREDENTIALS for the google service account.
• In the stock-analyzer folder, run python main.py. The file also accepts command line variables to investigate other stocks not in the Google sheet.

To create floud function

• Create the cloud function in the project
• After creating the secrets.py file as described above, create a ZIP file of the contents of the stock-analyzer directory.
• Upload the zip to the cloud function. The runner is runner.

Note:

• Google cloud functions automatically install requirements in the requirements.txt folder. Otherwise, a more complex deployment architecture is needed.
