Unusual Volume Detector --- New Website! :

This scans every ticker on the market, gets their last 5 months of volume history, and alerts you when a stock's volume exceeds 10 standard deviations from the mean within the last 3 days. (these numbers are all adjustable). Helps find anomalies in the stock market

Easiest way to see this:

Go to the website

How to run the script:

Download your favorite Python IDE. (I use VSCode)
Get my script from GitHub
Open the script in your IDE and install all required dependancies by typing pip install -r requirements.txt into the IDE's terminal. You can get to the the terminal on VSC by pressing CMD and ` at the same time.
Run the market_scanner.py and it will print out results into the terminal
You can also graph any ticker's volume in grapher.py

Controlling the Script

Line 21 controls the amount of months of historical volume the script gets
Line 22 controls the amount of days before today that it will alert you
Line 23 controls the number of standard deviations away from the mean volume
Line 116, "n-jobs" controls the number of threads the script runs on, which I lowered to avoid new rate limits
