stock_report

README

stock_report

A tool that sends a daily report to a user's Slack account with lists of the stocks in the SNP500 that are undervalued and overvalued.

A stock is determined to be undervalued if its market price is five or more standard deviations below its 200 day average price. Similarly, a stock is determined to be overvalued if its market price is five or more standard deviations above its 200 day average price.

The report is sent through a webhook to the user's slack channel of choice at 9am Monday through Friday.

Installation

Simply download the repository and run the main file. The command line will prompt you for a url to send the webhook to.

Usage

To use stock_report, you will need a unique webhook url. This can be created by following the instructions here: https://slack.com/help/articles/115005265063-Incoming-webhooks-for-Slack.

If you would like to edit the frequency or time of the report, you can edit this line:

c.AddFunc("0 9 * * 1-5", func() { RunAnalysis(webhookURL) })
