Why are the Python arguments so different in the Notebook instructions as compared to the exercise examples. For example:
- ALL the price_data arguements in the NOTEBOOK include the phrase "ohlcv" (section 9 unit 11)
- NONE of the price_data arguements in the exercizes include "ohlcv" (section 9 unit 12)
Why is that? What is the significance of the "ohlcv" argument?
Hi George,
'price_data' and 'ohlcv_price_data' are the names of dataframe. The price data that we are reading contains open, high, low, close and volume of the security. That's why to give a descriptive name; we kept the name of dataframe 'ohlcv_price_data'. To avoid any confusion, we will change the name of the dataframe from price_data to ohlcv_price_data in the exercise also.
Hope that helps!
