Usage

/openbb-equity TICKER [--analysis fundamental|technical|all] [--period 1y]

What This Command Does

Retrieves and analyzes equity data for any stock ticker using OpenBB's comprehensive data sources.

Workflow

1. Check OpenBB Installation

First, verify OpenBB is installed:

try:
    from openbb import obb
    print("✅ OpenBB installed")
except ImportError:
    print("⚠️  Installing OpenBB...")
    import subprocess
    subprocess.run(["pip", "install", "openbb"], check=True)
    from openbb import obb

2. Parse Arguments

# Parse user input
import sys
ticker = sys.argv[1].upper() if len(sys.argv) > 1 else "AAPL"
analysis_type = "all"  # fundamental, technical, or all
period = "1y"  # 1d, 1w, 1m, 3m, 6m, 1y, 5y

# Parse flags
for arg in sys.argv[2:]:
    if arg.startswith("--analysis="):
        analysis_type = arg.split("=")[1]
    elif arg.startswith("--period="):
        period = arg.split("=")[1]

3. Retrieve Historical Price Data

# Get historical prices
price_data = obb.equity.price.historical(
    symbol=ticker,
    interval="1d",
    period=period
)

df = price_data.to_dataframe()
print(f"\n📈 Historical Prices for {ticker}")
print(f"Period: {period}")
print(f"Latest Close: ${df['close'].iloc[-1]:.2f}")
print(f"52-Week High: ${df['high'].max():.2f}")
print(f"52-Week Low: ${df['low'].min():.2f}")
print(f"YTD Return: {((df['close'].iloc[-1] / df['close'].iloc[0]) - 1) * 100:.2f}%")

4. Fundamental Analysis (if requested)

if analysis_type in ["fundamental", "all"]:
    print(f"\n📊 Fundamental Analysis for {ticker}")

    # Company profile
    try:
        profile = obb.equity.profile(symbol=ticker)
        print(f"\nCompany: {profile.name}")
        print(f"Sector: {profile.sector}")
        print(f"Industry: {profile.industry}")
        print(f"Market Cap: ${profile.market_cap / 1e9:.2f}B")
    except:
        print("Profile data not available")

    # Financial metrics
    try:
        metrics = obb.equity.fundamental.metrics(symbol=ticker)
        print(f"\nKey Metrics:")
        print(f"P/E Ratio: {metrics.pe_ratio:.2f}")
        print(f"EPS: ${metrics.eps:.2f}")
        print(f"Dividend Yield: {metrics.dividend_yield:.2%}")
        print(f"ROE: {metrics.roe:.2%}")
    except:
        print("Metrics data not available")

    # Analyst ratings
    :
        ratings = obb.equity.estimates.analyst(symbol=ticker)
        ()
        ()
        ()
        ()
        ()
    :
        ()

5. Technical Analysis (if requested)

if analysis_type in ["technical", "all"]:
    print(f"\n📉 Technical Analysis for {ticker}")

    # Calculate technical indicators
    import pandas as pd

    # Simple Moving Averages
    df['SMA_20'] = df['close'].rolling(window=20).mean()
    df['SMA_50'] = df['close'].rolling(window=50).mean()
    df['SMA_200'] = df['close'].rolling(window=200).mean()

    current_price = df['close'].iloc[-1]
    sma_20 = df['SMA_20'].iloc[-1]
    sma_50 = df['SMA_50'].iloc[-1]
    sma_200 = df['SMA_200'].iloc[-1]

    print(f"\nMoving Averages:")
    print(f"Current Price: ${current_price:.2f}")
    print(f"SMA 20: ${sma_20:.2f} {'🟢' if current_price > sma_20 else '🔴'}")
    print(f"SMA 50: ${sma_50:.2f} {'🟢' if current_price > sma_50 else '🔴'}")
    ()

    
    delta = df[].diff()
    gain = (delta.where(delta > , )).rolling(window=).mean()
    loss = (-delta.where(delta < , )).rolling(window=).mean()
    rs = gain / loss
    df[] =  - ( / ( + rs))

    rsi = df[].iloc[-]
    ()
     rsi > :
        ()
     rsi < :
        ()
    :
        ()

    
    avg_volume = df[].rolling(window=).mean().iloc[-]
    current_volume = df[].iloc[-]
    ()
    ()
    ()
    ()

6. AI-Powered Insights

Generate investment insights using Claude's analysis:

# Prepare summary for AI analysis
summary = {
    "ticker": ticker,
    "current_price": current_price,
    "52w_high": df['high'].max(),
    "52w_low": df['low'].min(),
    "ytd_return": ((df['close'].iloc[-1] / df['close'].iloc[0]) - 1) * 100,
    "technical": {
        "sma_position": "bullish" if current_price > sma_200 else "bearish",
        "rsi": rsi,
        "volume_trend": "high" if current_volume > avg_volume else "normal"
    }
}

print(f"\n🤖 AI Analysis for {ticker}:")
print("\nBased on the data above, here's my assessment:")
print(f"- Trend: {'Bullish' if current_price > sma_200 else 'Bearish'} (price {'above' if current_price > sma_200 else 'below'} 200-day SMA)")
print(f"- Momentum: {'Overbought' if rsi > 70 else   rsi <   } (RSI: )")
()
()
