Using the yFinance Python package to download financial data from Yahoo Finance

In a previous post I explained how you can retrieve data from Yahoo Finance using Python and Pandas Datareader - an alternative Python library for retrieving data from Yahoo Finance is yFinance maintained by Ran Aroussi

If you are using conda package manager, you will notice that you can not install yfinance using conda so you will need to revert to pip install yfinance. All documentation is available on yFinance  as well as on https://github.com/ranaroussi/yfinance but I also uploaded a  Jupyter notebook code sample on my Github - https://github.com/jorisp/tradingnotebooks/blob/master/yfinance_sample.ipynb
