GUI and charts in Python

I am embarking on building a custom Python trading algo which will need a GUI and a charting capability.

Any recommendations/suggestions for cool Python packages or libraries for trading, GUIs and/or charting?

Thanks!

for complex GUIs https://wiki.python.org/moin/PyQt
you can do charting with matplotlib and embed charts in PyQt

 

Did mine with PyQt and charting with matplotlib but it's a bit of a headache to use. I'm waiting for PySide2 to be ready, much more reasonable for licensing.

 

trading algo in python. gui in c# (much easier)

 

Ouch!

Do you think the 'headache' element was attributable to PyQt specifically?

Is there something about PyQt that gives it a higher 'migraine score' than others?

Thanks!

 

PyQT has a gui designer that will create a file. I did one a while ago http://bit.ly/TFFL7V
