Manipulate the Dataframe to start from the nearest varying Midnight timestamp-CodePudding

My goal:

I have a dataset that gets generated every day at random hours leading to the first row to start at a random time. I want to make this dataset start from the nearest midnight date. For example, if the date on the first row is 2022-05-09 15:00:00, I would have to slice the data to make it start from the nearest midnight, in this case: 2022-05-10 00:00:00

Here's what the

What I have tried:

I had the idea of locating the index of the first occurrence of my desired timestamp and applying iloc to create the desired data set.

match_timestamp = "00:00:00"
[df[df.index.strftime("%H:%M:%S") == match_timestamp].first_valid_index()]

results: [Timestamp('2022-05-10 00:00:00')]

However, this would only result in extracting the timestamp where it first appears, and I would not be able to apply iloc to the row value. As of now, I'm stuck and can't think of a more elegant solution, which I'm sure exists.

I would be grateful if you could recommend a better method to this. Thank you in advance!

Here's the complete code to extract the df:

pip install ccxt

import pandas as pd
import ccxt

exchange = ccxt.okx({'options': {'defaultType': 'futures', 'enableRateLimit': True}})
markets = exchange.load_markets()

url = 'https://www.okex.com'
tickers = pd.DataFrame((requests.get(url '/api/v5/market/tickers?instType=FUTURES').json())['data'])
tickers = tickers.drop('instType', axis=1)
futures_tickers = list(tickers['instId'])

symbol = 'LINK-USD-220930'
candlestick_chart= exchange.fetch_ohlcv(symbol, '1h', limit=500)
candlestick_df = pd.DataFrame(candlestick_chart)
candlestick_df.columns = ['date', 'open', 'high', 'low', 'close', 'volume']

candlestick_df['date'] = pd.to_datetime(candlestick_df['date'], unit='ms')
candlestick_df['date'] = candlestick_df['date']   pd.Timedelta(hours=8)

df  = candlestick_df
df

The dictionary format: (as suggested)

my minimalistic approach of the pandaNewstarter you simply can apply it to your candlestick_df:

import pandas as pd
import datetime
df = pd.read_csv("data.csv")
df.dtypes
# convert date column to dtype timestamp
df.date = pd.to_datetime(df.date) 

# get min value from date colum
min_date = df.date.min()

# from min get next day midnight timestamp value
NextDay_Date = (min_date   datetime.timedelta(days=1)).replace(hour=0, minute=0, second=0, microsecond=0)
NextDay_Date

# create new DateFrame by slicing original
df2 = df[df.date >= NextDay_Date].copy()

out:

print(NextDay_Date)
2022-05-10 00:00:00
print(df2)
