I agree with Jens and Ed.? I get the IB data and store it to csv using python. Then another script reads the csv into a Pandas dataframe and that where the fun starts.

I concur with Jens. For a majority of purposes text files are sufficient. Unless you are going to perform very heavy queries I would go with that. If you are still thinking to use a database consider one of object databases depending on your development practices?

Dear Hedgemoney,

we are using MariaDB for large?dataset. However, storing the data into SQL and retrieving it back is more complicated?than using csv-files or Google Drive.

I prefer storing the data in csv-files. Python offers so many tools and very efficient methods to calculate all kind of models or output. And you may visualize the output with Dash (plotly).?

Best regards
Jens

hi

I didn't see any post that asked this directly so, I'll ask it.

I'm trying to get time/sales of options data end of day(EOD)?
will use tws api and python.
I think i should organize the data in a db rather than file, excel....
I may build a front end webpage to view the data?

so which one:
leaning SQLite
i hear mySQL is popular as is PostGreSql

My thought is to use SQLite and migrate to the other if I'll need it....
Any comments and opinions would be appreciated....

Thanks
