What problem does it solve?
Traders and researchers need consistent historical and real-time market data across A-shares, US, HK, futures, macro, and forex, but paid APIs or brittle providers can break workflows or slow experimentation.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Broad market coverage: Pulls OHLCV and quote data for A-shares, US stocks, and HK stocks, plus macro indicators, forex rates, and futures quotes.
- No API key required: Uses a free, open-source data library that aggregates from public sources (e.g., Sina, East Money).
- Backtest-friendly fallback: Provides a primary fallback in the project’s loader when tushare/yfinance are unavailable.
Use case: You want to backtest a strategy on an HK stock and need daily OHLCV with a specific adjustment mode; use AKShare to retrieve the dataset and feed it into the backtesting pipeline.
Quick Start
Ask the system to load AKShare data for an HK stock’s daily OHLCV between two dates with a chosen adjustment (e.g., qfq) so you can run your backtest.
