Store data from a variable that changes value at each instant

Question

Hello, I’m trying to solve a problem that involves your questions. I’m using a python api to get data from the IQ Option investment platform, but I’m unable to work with the data.

If I do dados = I_want_money.get_realtime_candles("EURUSD", 1) the variable dados is alternating its value every second, for example:

print(dados)

defaultdict(, {1573598084: {'active_id': 1, 'size': 1, 'at': 1573598085007490313, 'from': 1573598084, 'to': 1573598085, 'id': 45579603, 'open': 1.10109, 'close': 1.10109, 'min': 1.10109, 'max': 1.101105, 'Ask': 1.10115, 'Bid': 1.10103, 'volume': 4, 'Phase': ’T'}})

print(dados)

defaultdict(, {1573598085: {'active_id': 1, 'size': 1, 'at': 1573598086007376567, 'from': 1573598085, 'to': 1573598086, 'id': 45579604, 'open': 1.101095, 'close': 1.1011, 'min': 1.101095, 'max': 1.1011, 'Ask': 1.10116, 'Bid': 1.10104, 'volume': 2, 'Phase'’T'}})

print(dados)

defaultdict(, {1573598086: {'active_id': 1, 'size': 1, 'at': 1573598087007314295, 'from': 1573598086, 'to': 1573598087, 'id': 45579605, 'open': 1.101105, 'close': 1.10111, 'min': 1.101105, 'max': 1.10111, 'Ask': 1.10117, 'Bid': 1.10105, 'volume': 2, 'Phase': ’T'}})

So if I do for example aux = dados the variable aux will behave in the same way.

Another problem is that the variable to which I assign this data becomes the type dict, so if I can’t get for example dados[volume].

How do for example to store in a vector every second the data of dados in the field max ?

Answer 1

Well you can do the following, every second, assign the values that "data" receive and put in a list.

values = []
while 1:
    dados = I_want_money.get_realtime_candles("EURUSD", 1)
    values.append(dados)

    if len(values) == 30:
        break

print(values)

In this list you can access the values freely
