reticker is a Python 3.8 package to extract what look like stock tickers from the given text. It uses a configurably created regular expression. It does not however validate or use a whitelist of tickers.
>>> import reticker
>>> reticker.TickerExtractor().extract("Comparing FNGU vs $WEBL vs SOXL- who wins? And what about $cldl vs $Skyu? BTW, will the $w+Z pair still grow? IMHO, SOXL is king! [V]isa is A-okay!")
["FNGU", "WEBL", "SOXL", "CLDL", "SKYU", "W", "Z", "V", "A"]
>>> reticker.TickerExtractor().extract("Which of BTC-USD, $ETH-USD and $ada-usd is best?\nWhat about $Brk.a and $Brk.B? Compare futures MGC=F and SIL=F.")
['BTC-USD', 'ETH-USD', 'ADA-USD', 'BRK.A', 'BRK.B', 'MGC=F', 'SIL=F']- Optional matching of prefixed uppercase (e.g.
$SPY), unprefixed uppercase (e.g.SPY), prefixed lowercase (e.g.$spy), and prefixed titlecase tickers (e.g.$Spy) is enabled by default, but can individually be disabled. At least one of the four must be enabled. - Two-part tickers are also matched using a customizable set of separator characters.
- The results are in the order they are first found.
- By default, the results are deduplicated, although this can be disabled.
- A configurable blacklist of common false-positives is used.
- A configurable remapping of tickers is supported.
- For lower level use, a configurably created compiled regular expression can be accessed.
