The script works for sometime and the crashes-CodePudding

This script runs for like may be 10 seconds(It varies) and then suddenly stops with an error saying

IndexError: index 0 is out of bounds for axis 0 with size 0

from binance.client import Client
client = Client()

coin = "PYRBUSD"
ST = 20
LT = 60

def gethistoricals(symbol, LT):
    df = pd.DataFrame(client.get_historical_klines(symbol, '1m', str(LT)   'minutes ago UTC'))
    closes = pd.DataFrame(df[4])
    closes.columns = ['Close']    
    closes['ST'] = closes.Close.rolling(ST).sum() 
    closes.dropna(inplace=True)
    return closes

def check(coin): 
    ma1 = round((float(historicals['ST'].values[0]) / ST), 4)
    
    print(ma1)
    print(type(ma1))
    return True

while True:
    historicals = gethistoricals(coin, 20) 
    print(historicals)

    if check(coin): 
        print("Check Pass")

My output looks like this. Please note the Index: [] at the end

I am getting this error

CodePudding user response：

Check before you access a value:

def check(coin): 
    if historicals.empty:
        return False

    ma1 = round((float(historicals['ST'].values[0]) / ST), 4)    
    print(ma1)
    print(type(ma1))
    return True
