    It is not clear to me what command you are running, maybe include more detail. – Vincent Feb 28 '21 at 05:39
  • @Vincent pip install TA_Lib in Visual Studio Code terminal using powershell as term – CryptoKCMO Feb 28 '21 at 06:05
  • Im trying this post..--After much time I solved TA-Lib for windows To build the 64-bit ta-lib. Install TA-Lib C Library on Windows 10 Download and Unzip ta-lib-0.4.0-msvc.zip Move the Unzipped Folder ta-lib to C:\ Download and Install Visual Studio Community 2015 Remember to Select [Visual C++] Feature 4. Build TA-Lib Library From Windows Start Menu, Start [VS2015 x64 Native Tools Command Prompt] Move to C:\ta-lib\c\make\cdr\win32\msvc Build the Library nmake 5. Then pip3 install ta-lib. How do I get to c. I installed in c: then moved to c:ta-lib,cd c/ is not working to move forward – CryptoKCMO Mar 01 '21 at 16:12
  • @vincent I tried with powershell wasn't working so I added git as a term in vsc then also added anaconda that allowed me to use pip install python-binance, But will not let the install TA-Lib go lol. – CryptoKCMO Mar 01 '21 at 16:23

You need to install the ta-lib native library before you can install the Python module that adds a Python API to that library.

I tried installing this module on my Mac before I installed the native library. I got a very similar error:

ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1: /Users/steve/envs/foo/bin/python -u -c 'import sys, setuptools, tokenize; sys.argv[0] = '"'"'/private/var/folders/y2/84p16ph920x6j2g2glfb52pw0000gp/T/pip-install-U7_tLW/ta-lib/setup.py'"'"'; __file__='"'"'/private/var/folders/y2/84p16ph920x6j2g2glfb52pw0000gp/T/pip-install-U7_tLW/ta-lib/setup.py'"'"';f=getattr(tokenize, '"'"'open'"'"', open)(__file__);code=f.read().replace('"'"'\r\n'"'"', '"'"'\n'"'"');f.close();exec(compile(code, __file__, '"'"'exec'"'"'))' install --record /private/var/folders/y2/84p16ph920x6j2g2glfb52pw0000gp/T/pip-record-OIbYo6/install-record.txt --single-version-externally-managed --compile --install-headers /Users/steve/envs/foo/include/site/python2.7/TA-Lib Check the logs for full command output.

Then I did:

brew install ta-lib

to install the native library. After doing that, the installation of the Python library worked just fine.

I don't know Windows, so I can't tell you how to install the native library. It seems very likely, however, that that's the solution to your problem, just like it was mine.

  • Possibly helpful link to installing TA-Lib dependencies for other platforms: https://mrjbq7.github.io/ta-lib/install.html – Gino Mempin Mar 01 '21 at 03:30
  • Cool. On Windows, the suggested install method is to place something at the root of your filesystem? Windows often seems strange to me. – CryptoFool Mar 01 '21 at 03:38
  • @CryptoFool thanks working on it I did get zip from ta-lib, saved to c:ta-lib but still not working. I need a mac ,also had problems installing twisted from not having wheel, So had to use setup.py. Wheel is for mac os? – CryptoKCMO Mar 01 '21 at 07:05
