otp.Source.value_compare#

Source.value_compare(field, relationship_to_const, value, /, *, discard_on_match=False, inplace=False)#

Propagates ticks based on whether the value in the field is in the specified relationship_to_const to the value.

Parameters:
  • field (str, Column) – The name of the field to apply filter to.

  • relationship_to_const (str) –

    Relationship to check between the value of the field and constant value. Supported values:

    • lt (less),

    • le (less or equal),

    • eq (equal),

    • ne (not equal),

    • ge (greater or equal),

    • gt (greater).

  • value (str, int) – The value to compare the field to. Only string and numeric values are supported.

  • discard_on_match (bool) – If this parameter is False (default), only ticks that match the filter will be propagated. Otherwise ticks that match the filter will be discarded.

  • inplace (bool) – The flag controls whether operation should be applied inplace or not. If inplace=True, then it returns nothing. Otherwise, method returns a new modified object.

  • self (Source)

Return type:

Source or None

Examples

Propagate only the ticks where field EXCHANGE equals to P character:

>>> data = otp.DataSource(db='US_COMP_SAMPLE', tick_type='TRD', symbols='AAPL')
>>> data = data[['PRICE', 'SIZE', 'EXCHANGE']]
>>> data = data.value_compare('EXCHANGE', 'eq',  'P')
>>> data = data.limit(100)
>>> otp.run(data, date=otp.dt(2024, 2, 1), timezone='America/New_York')
