Numpy ImportError: cannot import name 'sliding_window_view' from 'numpy.lib.stride_tricks'

Which version are you running? The lastest version is on Github. Pip is for major releases.

version v0.2.75

Running Windows 10

Describe the bug

I just installed the version 0.2.75 from github by downloading the .zip file, then installed using pip3 install pandas-ta-master.zip

Received a notification that I didn’t have ‘wheels’ installed so it used legacy method of install, but installation was successful.

But when I tried to add the library I get the error shown below.

I uninstalled pandas-ta, then I installed wheels. I then reinstalled pandas-ta successfully:

C:\Users\chuck\Downloads>pip3 install pandas-ta-master.zip
<snip>a bunch of installation details....</snip>
Successfully built pandas-ta
Installing collected packages: pandas-ta
Successfully installed pandas-ta-0.2.75b0

C:\Users\chuck\Downloads>

=== Below is the result of simply trying to import the library =====

Ran into the same issue. Resolved it by updating numpy (current is 1.21.x):

$ pip install numpy --upgrade

Then reinstall pandas_ta:

$ pip uninstall pandas_ta $ pip install pandas_ta

Worked for me - so might work for you too.

Yep, that was the issue, which I thought was a red herring. But in fact it is new in 1.20 and I was running 1.19. Thanks for that.
