Each of these libraries offers unique features and capabilities, allowing us to choose the most suitable one for our specific data visualization needs. .. image:: ../../docs/source/_static/plotting_libs.png :width: 80% :align: center .. note:: To select the desired plotting library, we simply need to use the :py:func:`~vastorbit.set_option` function. vastorbit offers the flexibility to smoothly transition between different plotting libraries. In instances where a particular graphic is not supported by the chosen library or is not supported within the vastorbit framework, the tool will automatically generate a warning and then switch to an alternative library where the graphic can be created. Please click on the tabs to view the various graphics generated by the different plotting libraries. .. ipython:: python :suppress: import vastorbit as vo .. tab:: Plotly .. ipython:: python :suppress: vo.set_option("plotting_lib", "plotly") We can switch to using the ``plotly`` module. .. code-block:: python vo.set_option("plotting_lib", "plotly") vastorbit's candlestick visualization feature empowers data analysts and financial professionals to gain valuable insights from time-series data. By representing open, close, high, and low price values for a specific period, candlestick charts offer a clear and intuitive view of price movements, helping users identify trends, reversals, and patterns in financial data.

This capability allows you to tailor your candlestick charts to precisely represent the data distribution and trends, providing a customized and insightful view of your financial data. .. note:: In SQL, aggregations can be computed directly within the input SQL statement, but in Python, the process is a bit different. .. tab:: Plotly .. ipython:: python :suppress: vo.set_option("plotting_lib", "plotly") **Quantiles** .. code-block:: python data["population"].candlestick(ts = "date", q = (0.1, 0.9)) .. ipython:: python :suppress: :okwarning: fig = data["population"].candlestick(ts = "date", q = (0.1, 0.9)) fig.write_html("figures/plotting_plotly_candlestick_custom_q.html") .. raw:: html :file: /Users/badr.ouali/Documents/VastOrbit-master/docs/figures/plotting_plotly_candlestick_custom_q.html .. note:: By selecting the tuple (0.1, 0.9), we are effectively utilizing the values corresponding to the first and ninth deciles of the data distribution. .. tab:: Matplolib .. ipython:: python :suppress: vo.set_option("plotting_lib", "matplotlib") **Quantiles** .. ipython:: python :okwarning: @savefig plotting_matplotlib_candlestick_custom_q.png data["population"].candlestick(ts = "date", q = (0.1, 0.9)) .. note:: By selecting the tuple (0.1, 0.9), we are effectively utilizing the values corresponding to the first and ninth deciles of the data distribution. ___________________ Chart Customization ------------------- vastorbit empowers users with a high degree of flexibility when it comes to tailoring the visual aspects of their plots. This customization extends to essential elements such as **color schemes**, **text labels**, and **plot sizes**, as well as a wide range of other attributes that can be fine-tuned to align with specific design preferences and analytical requirements. Whether you want to make your visualizations more visually appealing or need to convey specific insights with precision, vastorbit's customization options enable you to craft graphics that suit your exact needs. .. hint:: For SQL users who use Jupyter Magic cells, chart customization must be done in Python. They can then export the graphic using the last magic cell result. .. code-block:: python chart = _ Now, the chart variable includes the graphic. Depending on the library you are using, you will obtain a different object. .. Important:: Different customization parameters are available for Plotly and Matplotlib.
