Data and code of my Medium story on stock prediction with TensorFlow

Hi there 👋

Epoch charts not displaying data

Hi,
the Epoch charts are not updating when I run this code. Any insight on why that me be?

Thanks

Problems with variance_scaling_initializer

I have run into two issues with line 59.

When run as shown, I get:

AttributeError: module 'tensorflow' has no attribute 'variance_scaling_initializer'

If I change the line to read
weight_initializer = tf.contrib.layers.variance_scaling_initializer(mode="fan_avg", distribution="uniform", scale=sigma)
I then get this error:

TypeError: variance_scaling_initializer() got an unexpected keyword argument 'distribution'

I only installed TensorFlow last week, and your file is only 23 days old, so I doubt that we have a version issue. Do these errors mean anything to you?

ValueError in Plot

When i run the code, the following error is shown

You are retraining your NN with test data!!!

In your implementation, you are retaining your model with test data! This should be strictly forbidden in any ML practice!

Code missing

Where is the original code at the end of the file?

Not a predictive stock model

This should not be an example of using historical stock data to predict future stock data, right? It seems more like directly training and fitting stocks that appear through various variables?
