R Programming Finance: Load historical stock price series (rfinance-01)

In this video, I'm excited to share one approach to importing historical stock price series into R. I think there are different ways to do this. My approach here is inspired by the approach that is illustrated by Jonathan Regenstein and his excellent book, Reproducible Finance with R, which you can find here: amzn.to/2zN6z1e. I will show you my variation and then the source from which I learned his approach. To do that, I'm going to load some libraries, including tidyverse, tidyquant, and ggplot. Quant mod is a very popular package for importing the technical data that includes stock price histories, but I've learned that tidy quant, written by the super talented Matt Dancho, includes quant mod so you get everything in quant mod plus a lot more.

Good work!

Phenomenal, you made my life easier

[@nhoj277]

I am glad you have incorporated R into your videos, I also exhausted the usefulness of excel, R is the next level, Python is not as easy to use and definitely does not have the vast array of built- in libraries R has for finance.

[@meekey1]

interesting! thanks!

[@ProdbyTrehnt]

You’re awesome bionic turtle.

[@k2icc]

How do you get tydyquant to work? I get "package ‘tidyquant’ is not available (for R version 3.3.2)".

[@CalebLikesR]

There's a more updated package that can handle multiple tickers: czcams.com/video/CD-Bk1YAYXk/video.html

[@javierloa9197]

Amazing! Would it be possible to do the video in Python? Thank you.

[@rodrigoavila5580]

Never continued with this series?

[@EduardoGarcia-if2kv]

I cannot find the source code that actually works. In this case, hard to follow in just the video
